Can Matt forgive the person who broke his heart and learn to trust him again or has he already given him too many chances? Matt Jacobs has had a very bad day. First his boiler breaks down in the middle of his shower then he learns his beloved cat would rather live with his crotchety old neighbour. But while he’s in work – at a job he hates, Matt gets the worst news of all. A phone call from the hospital informs him his father has just passed away. When the man he's been 'dating' for the past five months tells him he's getting married to someone else, Matt doesn’t know if he can take any more bad news. Thoroughly dejected and sick with grief he packs a bag and makes the five hour drive home to Missouri to arrange his father’s funeral. On a whim, Matt makes a trip to a secluded spot by the river, a place he spent much of his time growing up. While he's staring at the sky, contemplating his future, who should show up but James, Matt’s ex best friend and the last person on earth Matt wants to see. James was Matt’s first crush and the person who hurt him more than any other when they were just eighteen. But James has an apology for Matt and a confession that could tilt Matt’s world on its axis. Can Matt forgive the person who broke his heart ten years ago and learn to trust him again? Is it worth the risk to his already bruised and battered heart? Matt’s about to find out.

Lavinia discovered reading at an early age and could always be found with her nose in a book. She loved getting lost in a fantasy world even then. When her parents bought her a typewriter for Christmas at aged eleven, her fate was sealed. She spent hours dreaming up characters and creating stories. Not a lot has changed. Lavinia is a Welsh Valley girl who has lived all over the UK. Today she lives at home in the small village in which she grew up, just outside of Cardiff, Wales, but ask her again tomorrow and it could very well be somewhere different. She has travelled extensively to places as far and wide as Africa, Asia, Australia, North and Central America and most of Europe. Although some of her books are set in Texas she has never stepped foot in the state but plans to spend time there in the near future. She is a proud Brit, but feels quite at home when visiting the grand ol’ USofA. Although Lavinia is a huge fan of the romance genre, particularly M/M she will admit to reading anything and everything. She loves horror, a good thriller and if a book has the capacity to make her cry, well, all the better. She loves a gritty, angst-ridden, gut-wrenching story, but is more than happy to settle in with a lighter, fluffier tale. She loves a happy ending and the characters in her books have thus far been lucky enough to find one. She can’t guarantee that will always be the case. She has two cats and wouldn’t part with them for the world, even though they make her sneeze. Lavinia also writes M/F romance under the pseudonym Amy Armstrong.
