About this ebook

From the New York Times bestselling author of the Wedding Pact, Rose Gardner, and Maddie Baker series comes an irresistible romantic comedy where two single parents get a second chance at happy-ever-after.

First love is better the second time around.

Matt Osborn had no idea coaching his five-year-old nephew's soccer team would get him so much attention from the mothers-attention he doesn't want now that he's given up on love and having a family of his own. Yep, Matt's the last of his bachelor buddies, and plans on staying that way. That is, until he finds himself face-to-face with the woman who broke his heart.

Single mom Anna paused her life in England to help her father recover from an illness. She can't afford complications, and too-hot-for-his-own-good Matt Osborn-her almost former fiance is definitely a complication. He's a reminder of what might have been-or should have been. That irresistible pull between them isn't over. Not even close. But if she's not careful, she'll break both their hearts . . . again.

Ratings and reviews

This is my new favorite of the Bachelor Brotherhood series! Maybe even my favorite when including the Wedding Pact series too! Always You was so vastly different from the first two books in the series that it really stands out. You can tell it belongs in the series because of the mentioning of the brotherhood and the many familiar characters that show up throughout the book but it is very different from the other books, and also all the romances I’ve read. It is definitely an original and not just a typical cookie-cutter romance. There are relationships with children involved so there was a heavy focus on that and showing the difficulty of trying to start a romantic relationship when kids’ feelings are involved too and I really loved that. There were also new problems that Matt and Anna had to face that the other books’ characters did not so it added a unique-ness to it and there were parts I was unsure what would happen, and I definitely did not expect the ending. This is definitely an amazing book!

I'm always a sucker for a second chance romance story and this is one of my favorites. Matt's world has already had a drastic change with him taking in his nephew recently. But then Anna, his college sweetheart, "the love of his life", "the one who got away", shows up unexpectedly and his whole world is thrown for a loop. You can tell from the moment they see each other again, that they both still have strong feelings lingering. This story is touching, heartwarming, a little sexy, while being humorous also. Add kids to the story and you have so many laugh out loud moments that are just so real to life. I went through all the emotions when reading this story, tearing up in a few touching scenes. Denise always pulls you into the story and makes you feel as you are right there with the characters. Fantastic ending to the series! I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Readers Copy of this book.

A long lost dream becomes a real life fantasy. When Anna broke Matt's heart, she never thought she'd see him again. Amazing how time and regret can shape a life and give a person the maturity they once lacked. Matt has never gotten over the girl who broke his heart. Can he forgive the girl and accept the woman and mother she has become? Always You is a what - if story of second chances and lasting romances. A little laughter and a heartwarming happily ever after.
