Publisher's summary

A second chance at first love...

Eight years ago, Garrett Finnegan’s world shattered the day Mia vanished from his life. He’s been struggling to pick up the pieces ever since. Haunted by memories and ghosts of the past, he chooses a solitary existence rather than risk his heart again. Mia Emerson has made one wrong decision after another but none worse than walking away from the boy who stole her heart so long ago. When her new life is turned upside down, she finds herself returning to her roots and the hometown she left behind. Maybe now she can find a way to heal from the devastating mistakes of her past.

When a chance encounter brings these former lovers together, passion reignites in a way neither is prepared for. Can Garrett move beyond his anger and find a way to forgive? Will Mia’s insecurities and fears cause her to once again flee the life she’s destined to live? Garrett and Mia will soon discover that they must journey into the past to find their way home.

The third novel in the Ready series. Each novel can be read as a standalone.

Had potential

This second chance story had potential. I loved the performance, both did a good job. However, I didn’t like the main characters. Both seemed to be immature when all they needed to do was communicate. If this was truly the love of your life, communication was key. I seen this often. I’m not sure why the writers would leave this out and then drag the story to where the reader just get bored. All in all, it was worth the listen and I would recommend it. Just because I didn’t like the story it didn’t mean the writing was bad. That’s the reason I didn’t give low rating.

Ready for You

Storyline was pretty good but I was getting really exasperated with the female lead going back and forth. Dragging out the truth with half truths over a long period of time does not make the “secrets” go away…just makes them bigger and more important when they come out.

Eight years is a long time to never move on…..

One of my new favorite authors

I recently discovered this author through the romance package and I can’t get enough! The stories have several twists that keep you guessing. You know it’s going to all work out in the end but the process of getting there is a world I can’t get enough of!

I liked it

It was a enjoyable story. There were moments where the couple seemed very high school, with the two of them jumping to conclusions and what not. But overall it was good. Would give more 3.5/5

Good but hated Garret

I just think he was weak. He had no pride I understand its a romance but he could of move on and then go back to her but being on standby waiting I just hate it

Loved This Book

This was such a beautiful and emotional second chance story. I can hardly put into words the feelings this story brought out. Through the heart breaking choices and dramatic discoveries, I was fully immersed in each moment. JL Berg writes in such a way you can't help but become part of the story.
The narrators used for this book were amazing. Both are new to me, and they fit the characters perfectly, bringing life into Mia and Garrett.
I highly recommend both the book and the audio.
