Publisher's Summary
Kallie
I fell in love with him when I was seven. I scraped my knee, and he helped carry me inside. Our love story was the talk of the town until a woman told everyone she was pregnant with his baby. The only rational solution was to high-tail it out of town and never come back.
My best friend needed a place to hide, and you can’t get much more covert than my family farm, so I came back. For her. It was supposed to be temporary, and I wasn’t supposed to see him, but that’s what happens when you live in a small town where everyone knows each other.
Jacob
Being the sheriff in a small town was never my dream. My father died and my older brother took off, so I had to be the one to look after my mother. I stayed. I fulfilled my duties as a son and I protected my hometown.
My life wasn’t perfect, but I was content - until I locked eyes with a ghost from my past, Kallie. I thought it was my imagination; it couldn’t be her. I loved her most of my life, but now I hated her.
The town gossip mill was going into overdrive. I kept my head down and my mind off of the woman who shattered my heart when she ran away. She didn’t give me a chance to explain; it didn’t matter to her then. I didn’t matter.
A second chance is never promised, but now that mine is right under my nose, I’m not sure I can take it.

Wtf
SPOILERS SPOILERS!!
No just no!!
Let's be honest.....the fact that he DID choose the "friend" (he says he chose the boy) while his choice was what left h alone to suffer in silence. He DID NOT DESERVE FORGIVENESS! As a woman why would you ever forgive him..... The "friend" and Hero raised a child that wasn't his while at the same time the h lost their baby of the same age. I'm sorry but it would not okay to watch the Man that supposedly loved me raise another woman's child of the same age as their son would be.... It would be a constant reminder and slap in the face. If he LOVED her this would NEVER HAPPEN!

We All Like Different Things...This is Not One of Them for Me
Let’s start with the narration. This was probably one of the worst narrations I have listened to. Neither author seemed to be able to effectively use different voices foe different characters. And when each tried to speak as a character of the opposite sex, it was horrible. Sometimes, character delineation wasn’t even possible based solely on narration. What a shame because each author’s natural voice was very enjoyable.
The story was simply unrealistic...and raises so many questions and resulted in a number or eye rolls. Character development wasn’t the best (it was as if Chase just suddenly accepted Jacob on a dime).
I won’t listen to any other books in this series...though I hope others can enjoy it more than I did.

My favorite author
I love second chance story. The performance was wonderful. The narrators were spot on. I love all the stories from this author. This maybe spoiler: I’m confused with the whole secret between Ethans mom and Jake. The question in the story “ you chose her over me”. it took almost the end of the story for the heroine to stand up to the woman who stole the love of her life. Also, the hero didn't even have to guts to stand up for her. I usually listened more than once most of the stories from this author but this one just didn't do it for me.

Great read
This book has the perfect mix of all the elements we love in an exceptional romance. You'll fall head over toes for Kallie and Jacob as they become the best versions of themselves on their road to forever, and their story is one you won’t soon forget. Brian Palino & Morais Almeida do a wonderful job portraying & bringing the characters to life.

Sometimes
The Heroine sometimes annoying but it’s a good story, full of doubts and maybe weakling

Second Chances and Heartstrings!!
Y’all I had been in a reading slump. And I mean a BIG ONE! I have some amazing books on my kindle and audible. So I decided why not try this one!!!
Y’all Natasha SLAYED me with this book. Ripped my heart wide ass open! I cried and I laughed! This series is the way to go!!! I needed something that struck my heart strings and this one did it’s job!!
Kallie is sooo strong! The way she handled certain aspects of her life you knew she was just a girl and then grows into this strong woman. Who can knock’em down and lead on! I felt her pain!! I felt her love. And it was so emotional that I had to take a breather. Because her and Jacob are EVERYTHING!!
Jacob there goes my heart. That strong sexy sheriff/country boy. Lawdddd help us all. You feel his pain and his love much like you feel Kallies! And it’s amazing. To feel the love he has for her no matter the hurt and distance!!
Pleaseeee go read AND listen! You will not be disappointed! Thank you Natasha for getting me out of my slump!!!

Underwhelming.
Not enough depth to it which ruins the main storyline. Mostly it needed to go into more detail of why he made such a massive decision just on the spot like that and why it would be so disastrous for the truth to be told.... What was given in the story just doesn't make it believable

AMAZING
I listened to the sample of this book and knew I wanted to get it. This is almost like a full-on second chance romance, made to make you wish your love in your future could be that everlasting and happy ending. The blurb of this book does say that they hate each other but it is not hate that lashes out, so this is really just a romance book. Having said that, nothing is just a romance book, this was an awesome read/listen and one that definitely reaches my favourites. I don't always read gooey romances, but this was definitely a good book, even if it is not your normal read, but you have been thinking about reading a romance, this is a good book to try. If you read the blurb and are a bit unsure, listen to the audiobook sample and see if you like it, even if you aren't going to listen to it and want to read it instead, it is still something that will help you decide whether you want to read this book or not. The narration in this book was also amazing and definitely helped keep me in the headspace where I remembered that the characters were southern. I definitely enjoyed reading/listening to this book and hope you do too.

quite dull and tormented
A dull, tormented novel that doesn't bother to take advantage of the mystery/suspense elements or forgets to deal with them. Most of the books seems to be repetitively stated feelings of angst and lust. The narrators were excellent though! It's so nice to come across narrators who don't sound like teenagers or grandparents. I would listen to them narrate something again.
