Tragedy ripped the security from her life. Left a single mother, Alexis's fear of loss insulates her from the rest of the world. Her best friends from college and close family are the only people she keeps close.

A man from her past has always been in love with Alexis. He’s never met anyone that measures up to her. Garrett is a musician, who never really imagined he’d have the fame and fortune that he's found. But, even with that, what he's always wanted is out of reach... or is it? When Garrett and Alexis meet up by chance a relationship begins. Neither expected what happens. She can’t be sure she’s ready for the complications a relationship brings. He will have to work overtime to win her heart without any assurances it will be successful. Alexis is learning about life without Jed, and is feeling more secure with parenting on her own. Garrett appreciates his fans and is enjoying his life on the road but misses having a private life. The lives they have built separately leave little room for a budding relationship, but their hearts won’t take that into consideration. Will the cards they’ve been dealt get in the way of a love that is meant to be? Is love enough to overcome loss and heartbreak? Can they accept all that the other is, without feeling like they are living in the shadow of their former lives?

Review: A beautiful second chance story, I fell in love with right away. Alexis is suffering from the loss of her husband. She's not sure what to do, but she knows she has to stay strong for her daughter who needs her more than ever.

Re entering her life is Garrett. He's always had strong feelings for her that have never faded. But right now, Alexis is in a bad place. Still, he can't help his feelings for her, and he also bonds with her daughter.

I love that Garrett is a singer. I'm a sucker for stories that revolve some around music, and have a singer for a hero or heroine.

An emotional roller coaster, this story took me on a sweet ride. The one down side I may have to say is that I didn't fully feel the emotions of the characters. I didn't feel like I was completely in their heads, which took away from the emotional impact I may normally would have had. Still, it's a story that I enjoyed and would love to read more from this author.
