Liz Atwater’s happily ever after was torn from her the instant her husband, Jack, was murdered. She is forced to pick up the shattered pieces of her life and raise her three young sons alone.

Reynold Carter’s picture perfect Hollywood life ended the moment the paparazzi got hold of his girlfriend’s cheating scandal. As he watches his life unfold in the tabloids, he comes to a crossroads in his career and his purpose.

When Reynolds takes on the challenge of a new project, his world collides with that of Liz. Neither of them expected their professional relationship to evolve into friendship, or love.

But life is never simple.

Faced with complications from family, friends, and colleagues, Liz and Reynolds are left to decide whether two people from such different worlds can find happiness together.

Can they get past the pain, fear, and guilt and risk their hearts to love again?

Not every love story is just a happy ending. Some completely change your life.

This was my first book by Laura Ward and let me tell you it will not be my last.  I absolutely LOVED it!!  What a beautiful love story that evoked such emotion from me and I was seriously sad to see it end.  It is one of those books that really touches you and you don’t want to put it down but at the same time you want to savor every word of it and don’t want it to end.  I fell in love with the characters.  Liz and Reynolds were AMAZING!! Plus the 3 boys stole my heart.  Even though Reynolds is a star, he is so relatable and yummy you will instantly fall in love with him.  Liz is the type of female character that I yearn for.  Strong, emotional and full of an inner beauty she is the best friend you can only dream of having.  I loved that the characters were a little older and more mature, plus the addition of the 3 boys makes it that more realistic.  I know we read to get away from reality sometimes but there is something about this book that will make you connect in ways that I didn’t know were possible.  It is simply beautiful.  A story of love, loss, growth and learning it’s ok to love again.  I am simply in awe of it.  Thank you so much for the opportunity to review this Laura.  I will be a fan for life!!
