Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to read this as an ARC.

Love, love love this story. Part of the Brighton High School Reunion series, I have to say it's my favorite so far. Leslie and Trent are so relatable. Ten years post high school, 3 kids, jobs, mom-ing, looking like you have it all together but suffering quietly on the inside. This was Leslie. Her marriage had lost it's spark, she felt less than, and Trent was frustrated.

Nerves erupt as they head to the reunion because Leslie feels inadequate. Old flames are around, too. But true to fashion, if you love eachother hard enough and work on it, you can rekindle the flame and bring it all back.

Spice was nice and story was great.

Leslie and Trent? Yesss. Plus this author highlights a stay at home Mom, I this was truly amazing to read. I feel like women already worry about what others think of them but being a Mom makes overthinking worse!

This started off in a way that had me question the type of story this would turn into!

I had a few oh no moments of assumptions and was gladly disproven!!

I was so worried but it turned into happen connection that got me all teary eyed and happy!
The story gave me a twist I wasn’t prepared for, it gave my so much pleasure seeing how it ended up and the intimacy the MCs ended up working on… it had me squealing.

Highly, highly, highly recommend if you need inner turmoil and the most adorable happy ending!!

Check CW and TW. Leslie had moments where I just couldn’t understand her but that may be as I am not in the same stage of life but I could definitely see how she would feel how she did at times. I loved how Trent made sure she understood how he truly felt about her and their life. Communication was so key for them
