Synopsis Logo
Being someone’s first love is unforgettable. Being their last is immeasurable.

Claire Peters should be on top of the world. She owns the radio waves and has a budding movie career. But her heart longs to be rooted. Ten years ago, she fled Martha's Vineyard to pursue her dream and to make something of herself. But there’s still a void.  After a decade of running, she returns to the island hoping to find her happiness with the man she’s loved all her life.
When a tragic event shatters Dr. Forrest Desvareaux’ well-balanced world, the Vineyard’s hometown good guy discovers everything in his life is based on lies. Angry and betrayed, he turns to Claire - the one woman who has indelibly marked him.
Is it possible to run back to the person who broke you? Forever linked, Forrest and Claire are an unending continuum. But she’s a wildflower and Forrest’s roots run deep on the Vineyard. Can they accept home is not a place but a feeling?

Amazon/Goodreads Rating: 5/5
In Patti's Imagination rating: 10/10

I've always loved second chance romances. While I read Need You Now, I knew Forrest and Claire had a story to tell, that there was a history between them, and I couldn't wait to hear it. As I'd thought, Claire had regrets and she needed to rectify that. Over the course of the story, she not only grew and learned to accept her mistakes, but she learned to forgive herself. She also realized that chasing one dream doesn't have to mean giving up another.

What I hadn't expected was that Forrest would surprise me. One of my favorite archetypes is what I like to call the alpha in beta clothing. Forrest is, at the surface, a little geeky and a lot intellectual. Sure, he's also sexy in a way he clearly doesn't fathom, but the true nature of what makes him a fabulous lead is that he's a damn hot alpha under that façade. He's never needed to be the strong man - he had a wonderful father and plenty of friends to play the part of the macho guy. But when his mettle is tested after tragedy, he steps up to the plate and we see the alpha lurking inside him.

As always, the setting is lush, the language poetic. I've grown to expect that from Mika, and she does not disappoint. If you loved the first two books in this series, you will be thrilled with this latest. If you haven't read them, what are you waiting for? I highly recommend this series. This is Mika's best work to date, and I'm looking forward to more from her in the future.
