Excerpt
After dinner, we take Charlie out for a walk. I love our casual walks at night with my arms wrapped around this hand- some man.
“I…uh…I have something to tell you. I’m a little nervous, so can you please hear me out without interrupting me?”
Tyler stops dead in his tracks, letting go of my waist. “All right…but why are you nervous? You know you can tell me anything, right?”
Biting my lip nervously, I nod. I wish his words calmed my nerves this time, but they don’t. “Please. Don’t interrupt, just listen. We’ve been seeing each other for a couple of months now and things have been amazing, so I wanted to tell you that I…I’m…”
Oh, damn it, Brooke. Spit it out already!
“I’m ready.”
With his signature devilish grin, he teasingly cocks his brow, trying to appear puzzled by my statement.
This is so embarrassing. Maybe I should have kept my mouth shut.
“Ready? I’m not sure I understand? What exactly is it that you’re ready for?”
Ass! He knows exactly what I mean. I elbow him in the side as my face turns fifty shades of embarrassed. “Jerk! You know exactly what I’m trying to say.”
His grin grows bigger, telling me he’s enjoying my discomfort. Reaching for me, he pulls me towards his chest. “Sweet- heart, I’m sure I know exactly what you mean, but I wanna hear you say it. I want to hear the words come out of your gorgeous lips.”
He’s really gonna make me beg. “I’m ready for us to…you know...for us to…be together.” I cover my face with my hands. I’m ready to crawl under a rock now.
Pushing me back from his chest, he eyes me with such tenderness. “Can we please take this conversation home? I really don’t feel like talking about making love to my girlfriend in front of the homeless dude here,” he says, motioning to the man sleeping in the doorway of the shop we happened to stop in front of. I nod in embarrassed agreement as Tyler leans in to kiss the side of my head. “Hey, you have nothing to be embarrassed about.”

My Review
This is a beautiful, capitvating story of a woman, Brooke, who has lost two things that are the closest to her heart. It is the struggle of survival and moving forward in your life when the past only has pain and memories of things that you use to have!
This story starts with a girl bumping into a guy and spilling her coffee on him…. But it takes us down a road of friendship, passion, pain, family issues and so much more!
Brooke was broken and had built walls around her heart, and honestly, who could blame her? Look at how much she had lost. I’m honestly not sure how I would be able to function in her situation. (or even if I could function) but Brooke picks herself up and moves away to try and live again. With all the painful reminders at home she must go somewhere else.
This is where we meet Tyler….he stole my heart from the beginning. He was so patient with Brooke and honest. He was an all around fantastic guy and you couldn’t help but fall in love with him. He was in-tune to Brooke’s needs and knew when to just leave things alone or when she needed a little push. Their connection started as a friendship but developed into so much more!
“but for tonight…tonight I wasn’t to hold you in my arms and kiss you like there’s no tomorrow. Would that be all right for now?”
I will say that the situation with Tyler’s brother just made me angry. How could family do that to each other…. I am sure it probably happens all the time but I don’t know if I would ever be able to forgive a sibling for that.
The ending was perfect, the story was great! We do get to see things from both Brooke and Tyler’s perspective. I love the flashbacks that happened too so we could see Brooke’s past and her interactions in that part of her life.
