This book is # 3 in the Second Shot series. This book can be read as a standalone novel. In order for the reader to have complete understanding for this relationship story, I recommend reading the series in order. Dominic and Lily were an item for many years. He left to serve his country. He could not wait to get out of what he felt was the small town to no where. Now, he is back to help Lily. She no longer wants his help. Lily survived a tragedy that would have ravaged a lesser woman. She doesn't want Dominic back on these terms. She wanted him to come to her on his own. Can they learn from their losses and love again? Only time will tell... Such a hot and sweet read. I loved their story. I really enjoy how this series is all connected. Full of great and complicated characters. I cannot wait to read the next installment. ***This ARC copy was given by Edelweiss and its publishers in exchange for an honest review only.
