“Speak now or forever hold your peace.”
I hate that part in a wedding, where everyone waits on pins and needles to see if someone has a reason why the couple shouldn’t get married.
So, when I ran into my high school sweetheart and found out that she was engaged, I said my peace before she ever walked down the aisle.
Shauna and I crossed paths when I went to Las Vegas for work, and sharing one meal with her was enough for me to remember why no other woman has even come close to affecting me the way she did.
But then her fiancé showed up, surprising us both, and I thought I’d lost her for good.
Every dream of our future was sucked from me once more, because this wasn’t the first time she slipped through my fingers. At nineteen, she made decisions that tore us apart, and I was too stubborn to understand why back then.
But it turns out my twin brothers aren’t stupid after all when they convinced me to take one last shot to win her back.
So, I flew back to Vegas, intent on stopping her wedding and telling her how I feel, but it turns out, history was damned to repeat itself again because she walked down the aisle anyway.
Or so I thought.
Because six weeks later she shows up at my parents’ house for a job and there’s one thing that’s noticeably different on her—there’s no ring on her left hand.
I saw my future with her.
I know that’s what I still want.
But it’s hard to face the past when the future is uncertain too.
Can we heal the hurt? Can we find our way back to each other?
And most importantly, can I finally tell her: “I had everything but you.”
Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars
Everything But You was a rollercoaster of a second-chance romance. After reading the last book, and the tattoo scene at the end between the Gibson brothers, I was intrigued about Forrest and Shauna’s history and couldn’t wait to see how this story would pan out.
Forrest and Shauna never gave up on loving each other — yeah, yeah, she is engaged to someone else when the book opens, but the rest of the story is about her trying to win *him* back after he begged her not to get married, and I loved it. There is a nice push and pull between these characters, and there are so many layers to them repairing their relationship when she comes to work as the event coordinator at his family’s ranch.
Everything But You is the perfect blend of swoon, regret, heartache, and angst in a second-chance romance, and it ends with a happily ever after that is a lovely payoff for these high school sweethearts.
I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
