About this ebook

Sometimes your life is split by a single decision.

I’ve spent every day of the last seven years regretting mine: he left, and I didn’t follow. A thousand letters went unanswered, my words like petals in the wind, spinning away into nothing, taking me with them.

But now he’s back.

I barely recognize the man he’s become, but I can still see a glimmer of the boy who asked me to be his forever, the boy I walked away from when I was young and afraid.

Maybe if he’d come home under better circumstances, he could speak to me without anger in his voice. Maybe if I’d said yes all those years ago, he’d look at me without the weight of rejection in his eyes. Maybe if things were different, we would have had a chance.

One regretted decision sent him away. One painful journey brought him back to me. I only wish I could keep him.

*A contemporary romance inspired by Jane Austen’s Persuasion*

Ratings and reviews

A beautifully written book. The description of the characters brings them to life that you feel their pain. Poignant and deep when describing love, loss and forgiveness This book should be a classic.

Staci Hart's writing will wrap around your soul really tight and never let you go!! Wade fights an internal war with himself. He's angry, he's lost, he feels betrayed by the person whom he promised forever. It's an up and down rollercoaster ride for Wade. One thing is certain, he never stopped loving Elliot. Elliot is always caring and gives 100% of herself to the people she loves, even when those people don't love her back. Losing Wade, made her lose a part of herself and seeing him again gives her clarity that she'll love him forever. She'll love him regardless because deep down she can't love anyone else. He's her forever and if she can't have him then she'd rather be alone. Wade and Elliot's journey wasn't easy. They both experienced loss and pain. With time they both changed, yet what never changed was their love for one another. The thing about this book that you must know is that it isn't sweet and fluffy. You'll feel the anguish grip your heart leaving you breathless. I felt hallow in the pit of my stomach and a heavy weight on my heart from every page of this book! Once again Staci Hart has blown me away with her beautiful words that have marred my very being forever.

It is one of the finest love story I have ever read. Thank You!
