Seven years ago, I was prepared to propose to the love of my life. However, a knock at the door changed all of that when I found out she was already engaged to someone else. I walked out of her door, never to return. Seven years later, I’ve gone on with my life, co-owning a business and co-parenting my son, proving that I can be the father he needs. But when my position as a general contractor lands me on the doorstep of my ex once more, I find myself snatched back into time, wanting everything that I thought I had before. Coming face-to-face with the woman who ripped my heart from my chest all those years ago forces me to swallow my pride to work with her. From the outside looking in, Poppy’s happily married and living the dream life that all Maxwells live, but I see the cracks and detect the flaws hidden underneath. My goal is to remain focused on the job and not get too personal again until a bond starts forming between us and I realize that my friendship means more to her than I could ever guess. A devastating truth about her husband, an unexpected hurricane, and a traumatic car accident collide to form the perfect storm that changes the nature of our relationship. No matter how fast and how far Poppy runs, I’m determined to fight for her this time, especially when I learn that she finally has the one thing she’s always wanted. This time, I’m not going down without a fight. But I don’t know if our love can withstand the pressure of this final test, or will it just be history repeating itself. *Does contain cheating and mild violence, but also includes an HEA.
