Synopsis

“Heart-searing, sensual, and life affirming.” ―EMILY HENRY, #1 New York Times bestselling author

Soledad Barnes has her life all planned out. Because, of course, she does. She plans everything. She designs everything. She fixes everything. She’s a domestic goddess who's never met a party she couldn't host or a charge she couldn't lead. The one with all the answers and the perfect vinaigrette for that summer salad. But none of her varied talents can save her when catastrophe strikes, and the life she built with the man who was supposed to be her forever, goes poof in a cloud of betrayal and disillusion.
 
But there is no time to pout or sulk, or even grieve the life she lost. She's too busy keeping a roof over her daughters' heads and food on the table. And in the process of saving them all, Soledad rediscovers herself. From the ashes of a life burned to the ground, something bold and new can rise.
 
But then an unlikely man enters the picture—the forbidden one, the one she shouldn't want but can't seem to resist. She's lost it all before and refuses to repeat her mistakes. Can she trust him? Can she trust herself?
 
After all she's lost . . .and found . . .can she be brave enough to make room for what could be?

For fans of Tia Williams and Colleen Hoover comes a deeply moving and personal novel about sacrifice, self-reliance, and finding true happiness from “one of the finest romance writers of our age.” ―Entertainment Weekly

I loveeee this series! Watching Soledad find herself again & go on a self love journey before finding love anywhere else was so wonderful I do wish we focused a TAD more on the romance than the journey, but otherwise I had an amazing time reading their story (and I can’t WAIT for the next one!!!!)

don't jinx me. i'm chasing the high of finally actually liking a romance. and it actually worked. the third book isn't even out yet and i'm already sad this series has to end. this was such an emotional read. it's supposedly a romance, but that love story was the least of our worries. the relationships......more

4.5⭐️ I need to read more books like this!! ❤️ In my head, contemporary romance is a genre that's like the complete opposite of fantasy haha I don't know if I'm right on that or not, but let's assume I'm right in the context of this review. There is contemporary romance and contemporary romance w......more
