Because a week after they lose their virginity, he dumps her and leaves town with a vow to never speak to her again. Four years later, Derek Smyth, the dark-eyed musician who Eli fell in love with, is back in town. He just wants to move on, but she wants revenge. With a runaway brother who lives in a van, an enemy with a secret that could change everything, and a best friend who has the perfect plan to break Derek's heart, Eli finds herself caught between the past, the future, and finding out what forgiveness and forever really mean. "Where do I even start with this book! When I describe my taste in romance books, second chance, childhood friends, or a slow burn are never words I use - but this book could be described as all of those and I wanted ALL OF IT. But wait how does all of that fit in a story and not feel messy? Idk, but Amanda has figured it out. This book is way better than anything I can try (or have tried) to say about it. It's great, highly recommend." -Bree, @brees.reads, Instagram review, ★★★★★ "Cannot stop thinking about your beautiful book ... That we might know but have never thought of it THAT way.
