A brand new standalone from Friendship, Texas featuring everyone's favorite awkward baker and the one that got away.I looked up and standing there was my ex-boyfriend, Jordan Webber. Maybe ex-boyfriend wasn't the right word. Maybe the boy who I dated for almost two years. Then he graduated early, leaving for art school in New York. He wanted me to come with him, but what future did I have in New York? My parents weren’t paying for me to go to school unless it was a state school with a real degree and all I ever wanted was to do photography. So the portrait studio worked for the time being until I realized I really needed to get out of the house and took the part-time job at the bakery. Between my parents’ divorce, work, and trying to get over my break up, I was basically a hot mess the first two years after high school. Joey came in at the right time as a distraction then the job at the bakery. But I still never forgot about the one that got away.
I hadn't seen Jordan in over four years and there he was, standing there with a hand on one of the boxes and his blue eyes wide open like he'd just seen a ghost.
"Abbey Dillinger?" he asked, it wasn't so much of a question as it was a breathless statement.
I hated him for leaving me. He could have gone to art school in Dallas. He could have stayed if he really did love me. I should have hated him. But seeing him, standing in front of me, I couldn’t hate him. The past four years had been very good to him.
**This book is a standalone in a series of standalones taking place in the fictional town of Friendship, Texas. You don't need to read any of the previous books to understand this one***
Second chance romances are some of my favorite kinds of
books to read. I think it is because I truly
believe in soul mates and sometimes people need to part to realize what is
important in their lives. Done right,
the angst and drama can add to that need of wanting the characters back
together, done incorrectly and you are like ummm why would I want these two
back together. Luckily for me, and for
you, The One That Got Away was done
well. Your emotions are going to going
on a roller coaster ride for sure.
Jordan and Abbey will keep you entertained throughout the
book. It is funny, it is at times
emotional, and the connection between Jordan and Abbey was one that I just
enjoyed reading about. Now sometimes you
want to slap other characters in the book but overall I still enjoyed it. While this may be the fourth book it was easy
for me to read it without reading the prior books. Although I will be one clicking them, my bank
balance is gonna hate me.
The One That Got Away
was sweet, funny, a bit of an emotional rollercoaster ride and one that I
easily recommend.
