I’ve been many things in my life: daughter, friend, student, lover, wife…and now, widow. Getting past those labels and finding who I could be without them was the hardest thing I’ve ever done.
Then I became friends with Brendon Connolly.
Every time I look at him, I see a past, I see a present, and I’m afraid if I look too hard, I’ll see a future.
~~~
I’ve known Harmony Wynham since before she got married. Before she lost everything. I didn’t know that one day she wouldn’t be just my friend but the woman I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.
Only I don’t think that can happen.
Not when every time she looks at me, she sees what she lost, and I can only see what I can’t overcome.
I love her, even though I shouldn’t. Somehow, we need to find a balance.
Because if we don’t, walking away will be the hardest thing I’ve ever done—even if it’s the only thing I should do.
Stephanie’s 3 Star Review:
I received a free copy of this book from the author.
This is the second book in the Fractured Connections series but it can be read separately. This book focuses on Harmony and Brendon. They’ve been friends for a long time. Harmony’s husband worked for Brendeon and they were best friends before the husband’s death.
These two have so much pain from life circumstances. It has to be hard to work past them on a daily basis. You can only put one foot in front of the other and push though – because the alternative – isn’t worth it.
This friends to lovers romance won’t disappoint. These two have quite an inner struggle before either can believe they’re worth the risk. It’s a slow build but once they make that decision all bets are off. If you’re a fan of this trope you’ll enjoy this one.
