BLURB
??????????
He was mine once.
The boy who hid blue eyes behind bangs that were far too long and spun stories just for me.
Life was perfect back then.
When my only worry in the world was making sure daddy didn’t catch us sharing more than words behind the barn.
He should still be mine.
But they took him. Ripped him from me while simultaneously tearing my heart in two.
Six years later and you’d think I’d have moved on from that blue-eyed boy.
Sometimes it’s nice to pretend I have.
???????
She was mine once.
The girl who tasted like sunshine and smelled like summer rain.
Life was perfect back then.
When my only worry in the world was making sure her daddy didn’t catch my hands on her pale freckled skin.
She should still be mine.
But she broke my heart in two, ripped the other half of my soul straight from my chest.
Six years later and you’d think I’d have moved on from that cold-blooded woman.
Sometimes I wonder if I should just forget about her.
Sometimes I think I should get revenge.
She’s always been happiest near the sea. And I’ve always been happiest with her.
ARC REVIEW
Temperance and Woodrow come from different worlds, yet they are both drawn to each other. However, Temp’s family has other plans and does whatever they can to keep these two young lovers apart.
The chemistry between Temperance and Woodrow was off the charts. From the first moment they were together you could fell it jump off the pages. They end up spending six years apart, yet despite everything the chemistry is still there. They are so still drawn to each other, even if they don’t know why.
In the six year gap you can feel the pain of their separation. The loss that each of them are feeling and all the heartbreak that occurs. This also leads to a small revenge plot when their paths cross once again. I almost wanted more of the revenge and some more drama out of it all before things came to an end for these two characters.
If you’re looking for a forbidden, friends to lovers to enemies to lovers, historical romance check this one out.
