Heathen and Honeysuckle by Sarah A. Bailey
4.0

First and foremost I want to thank Sarah A. Bailey for sending me an ARC copy of this book for an honest review. I love and appreciate it so much.

This was my first Sarah Bailey book ever. It was absolutely wonderful to experience this book. It was a roller coaster of emotions and I love when books can make me feel five million different emotions in one sitting.

I'm not normally a second chance romance girly, but Heathen and Honeysuckle was one of the exceptions. The then and now chapters really show that no matter how hard you try, sometimes true love never goes away. It's raw, real, and worth fighting for even if everyone around you says not to.

After spending a summer whirlwind of a romance together with all the plans to be together forever, a family emergency happens and while Darby has every good intention, they end up spending 10 years apart. And Leo shows up… on her wedding day. He once again, come through for her when no one else does and saves her from making a mistake she'll regret.

Turns I didn’t see coming, spice that was IMMACULATE, and emotions that had me sobbing into my pillow, I’ll never be the same. I loved this book so much.
