Walker Callahan has loved from afar for as long as he can remember.

The golden boy of the Callahan baseball dynasty, he’s the only player to ever secure a top spot on a roster controlled by his own flesh and blood. The pressure, duty and plans laid out for him since birth loom large, causing things like love and a family to fall by the wayside.

Or maybe that’s because the woman he loves is already married with children.

When they met, she was already promised to someone else. For over six years, he resigned himself to being her friend. Until one night, when her marriage and the ugly secrets it keeps unravels for the world to see. She’s burned, scared and needs someone who will put her needs above everything else.

Can Walker risk his own future and show her how to trust again? Or will the feelings he’s kept hidden for years throw him out of the game before he can even attempt to play?

Hannah Giraldi never wants to fall in love again.

All it brings is pain, misery and her life falling to shambles. After a very public scandal, her abusive husband takes everything, leaving her to raise two daughters on nothing but charity from others, a hope, and a prayer.

New to the job market, single motherhood, and with two court cases on her plate, the last thing she needs are the butterflies that Walker ignites in her stomach every time he comes around. But with his soothing words, supportive shoulder to lean on, and undeniable gorgeousness, he’s pretty hard to ignore.

Just when it feels like she might be standing on her own two feet, the world comes crumbling down around her. And the man she’s finally allowed into her heart abandons her, once again leaving her to pick up the pieces.

Is there a way to heal all of the broken parts, or will Hannah go down swinging while attempting one more shot at a happily ever after?

Did I really just read a book by Carrie Aarons?? Holy hell on wheels this book was written with so much fire and passion, it was nothing like I had anticipated.

I have read almost every book that Carrie has released in the last few years and this book has a completely different vibe than those. This book is filled with an array of emotions but what really shocked me was the level of angst she brought.

Walker is one of the most patient, loving and very driven men I have ever come across. He’s a legend on the baseball field and has always put his family first. He’s known Hannah since the day she started dating one of his teammates and he’s been respectful of her and that relationship. But that all ends the day Hannah’s secrets are bared to the team.

Hannah thought she had it all until her husband became the monster you read about in news articles. And when their dirty secret comes to light, her life truly unravels and she’s left with nothing. But Hannah has two reasons to keep going and not let her husband knock her down again – her little girls.

Let me tell you – this story is an emotional roller coaster. Hannah is determined to come out of this stronger and not dependent on anyone but herself. Walker just wants to prove to her that what they have is something that she is more than deserving of. But there are a lot of bumps and roadblocks in their path.

I enjoyed this book so incredibly much. I felt every single emotion both these characters went through. I felt myself fighting alongside Hannah and rooting for Walker to not give up. I cried, laughed, screamed and had tears of joy rolling down my cheeks. This was a great book to start my 2021 reading with.

This is Carrie Aarons at her best. With every book release, she continues to grow and become stronger in her talent. If you have never read a book by Carrie, you NEED to read this one. And if you’ve read her before, expected to be blown away.
