Story
Fifteen years ago, I fell for Jack O’Donnell. I was just a girl, but I knew my brother’s best friend was the only man I’d ever love. On my 18th birthday, when I asked him to kiss me, I never imagined it would change my life so completely. I gave Jack everything that night. In order to move on, we had to go our separate ways and pretend like nothing happened...as though it wasn’t the greatest moment of my life. But even that wasn’t as heartbreaking as the secret we were forced to keep.

Story
In the morning, she was gone and had taken my solace with her. I left for the military that day, vowing never to return to Pennsylvania. When my father dies, I’m forced to go home to bury him. At least I'll finally be rid of his farm, which is grown over and tangled with memories I've fought to forget. And that’s when I find her. She’s even more beautiful than I remember and has the most adorable kid I’ve ever seen. Years have passed, but my feelings are the same, and this time I refuse to let her go. They say you can't bury the past, and they're right.

There's no way I'll fall for Wyatt Hennington. He can keep his Southern drawl, irresistible smile, and those pick-up lines all to himself. I made the mistake of sleeping with him not once, but twice. I'm not stupid enough to give him round three, especially after he left me in the middle of the night so I could see myself out. I vow to return to Philadelphia and forget him.

I'm not a one-night stand kind of woman. I'm especially not the woman who has a few drinks at a concert and ends up in bed with my childhood celebrity crush, Eli Walsh. However, that's exactly where I find myself. What's a girl to do after a drunken mistake? Run. I grab my clothes and get away from the powerful, irresistible, and best-sex-of-my-life superstar as fast as I can.

Men suck. They break you. Leave you. Take everything until there's nothing left. And frankly, I'm done allowing them to make me feel insignificant. So, forget men. I'll just throw myself into my job, because at least that never fails me. Jackson has other plans, though. I refuse to be impressed by his perfect body, the cute dimple on his cheek, or the rugged stubble on his face. Jackson Cole can be resisted. But, I'm only fooling myself. He's going to wear me down. I can feel it. In the end he'll prove that once again, I'm no one's beloved.

To be “just friends” with a guy, you’ve got to follow The Rules: Don’t touch him unnecessarily. Don’t share your intimate dreams with him (even if he asks). Don’t kiss him, and definitely don’t sleep with him. Scout Dunne and I have been “just friends” since childhood. I’m one of the few people who knows the first-round NFL draft pick wants more than a life of sports.

Hockey star Max Yearwood was everything I needed at the time - fun, sexy, up for anything, and only around for a few months, since he’d signed with a new team 3,000 miles away. Max proposed we spend the summer helping me forget my ex. It sounded like a good plan. Things couldn’t get too serious when we had an expiration date. Right? Though, you know what they say about the best-laid plans.

Reasons why I should not be drawn to Troy Serrano. Number one: He’s obnoxious. Number two: We were enemies more than a decade ago. Number three: He’s my friend’s ex-boyfriend. I could go on and on, really. When my boss gives me an unwanted assignment, and tells me it involves spending time with the grandson of one of our residents, the grandson turns out to be Troy. Lucky me. Four hours a week of having to deal with his insufferable personality and unsolicited advice - the only consolation is getting to stare at his annoyingly gorgeous face, in between our many arguments.

I decide to start the journey to parenthood alone. Then Quinn strolls back into my life, with all the finesse of a hurricane.

I figured it would be easy to find him a match - and save the family business at the same time. But the more time I spend attempting to find the perfect girl, the more I realize how much I want him for my own.

It was the summer of my life. I’d met the guy of my dreams. Unfortunately, he was the son of my uppity employer - and very much off-limits. But Gavin was a rebel. He knew his mother would disown him if she found out about us; in his eyes, we just had to be careful. He never treated me as his mother did - like hired help. Instead, Gavin put me on a pedestal and loved me harder than I’d ever been loved in my life.

It’s natural to want the one you can’t have. And for as long as I could remember, I’d secretly wanted my brother’s best friend, Jace. He was six years older and always treated me like the sister he never had. Fast forward a decade. We were all in our 20s now. Jace had moved in with my brother, Nathan, and me to help us make ends meet after our parents died. It was just the three of us - an odd family dynamic. Living under our roof, Jace was as bossy and protective as ever. But he certainly didn’t look at me like a sister anymore. That was what made things so complicated.

I kept it inside because Rory and I made a pact that our friend, Amber, was off-limits. He lied. I went off to college, and he got the girl. Amber never knew how I felt. They were together for years - before he broke her heart. Through it all and across the miles, she and I casually stayed in touch. When my job sent me to Boston for a three-month contract position, Amber let me stay in her spare room.

Donovan and I met at a coffee shop to do the suitcase exchange. Turned out, it wasn’t just his voice that was sexy. The man holding my luggage was absolutely gorgeous, and we had an immediate spark. He got me to admit that I’d snooped in his bag and then convinced me to make it up to him by letting him buy me coffee. Coffee led to dinner, dinner led to dessert, and dessert led to spending an entire weekend together. So what did I do to repay him for his kindness? I waited until he was in the shower, then ghosted him.

Finding a good roommate through a classified ad isn’t as easy as it sounds. I was starting to lose hope. Until a knock at my door came, and God answered my prayers. Except...uh...wrong prayer, God. I’d definitely requested the big guy find me a drop-dead gorgeous man on more than one occasion...just not as my roommate. Declan Tate talked me into interviewing him anyway. While he was amusing and charismatic, I wouldn’t have been comfortable living with a man, so I regretfully declined. Then, cupcakes showed up at my door.

Summary
From New York Times best-selling author Corinne Michaels comes a new second-chance stand-alone love story.
At 18, I walked away from Willow Creek Valley for good. I was young, scared, and stupid, and it cost me the love of my life - Grayson Parkerson.
Fourteen years later, a crash sends me back home to recover.
Back to where we met, fell in love, and planned a future. The one he’s now living as a single dad to his daughter. Working at The Park Inn together gives us a chance to reconnect, and seeing him with his little girl makes me long for the days when he was mine. One look in his gorgeous blue-green eyes, and it’s like I never left. One kiss, and my world is upside down. One night together, and I know without a doubt, in his arms is where I belong.
I’m not the girl I was - intimidated by his wealthy family and desperate to escape our small town. I can imagine a new life for us here.
But he’s learned to guard his heart, and trust won’t come easily. How can I convince him to give first love a second chance?

Return to Us
"Take the hand outstretched when you’re weak and let it lend you strength."
Return to Us is a captivating second chance romance that pulls you in and holds on from the very beginning.
Grayson and Jessica were high school sweethearts who thought they would be together forever until she walked away to try and save both of them. Jessica returns home to recover after a plane crash ends her career. Greyson still lives in town raising his little girl. As their lives intertwine again there is hope brewing to put the past behind them and return to what they once were.
I laughed, cried and grinned from ear to ear. Grayson and Jessica never stopped
loving each other. Grayson's daughter Amelia is the most adorable little girl
ever. The secondary characters are great and make me excited for more from the series. The unexpected twists were quite a shock as well. This was my first Corinne Michaels book and I am wishing I had read her books sooner and look forward to catching up on her books.
Audio: Sebastian York and Andi Arndt were the perfect voices for Grayson and Jessica and the two made the perfect couple.

LOVE LOVE LOVE
AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING I love Grayson although I think Jessica is his soulmate. Jessica left Willow Creek Valley looking to spread her wings, but after being injured in a plane crash where she was the flight attendant, returns for the first time in years, to recover at home. Jess heart prevented her from returning home before this knowing she had left the love of her life. In Grayson's eyes, Jess was the one that got away. She is the love of his life and he never understood how she could leave him. Grayson is living his life, raising his little girl Amelia, whose mother moves to Paris when her daughter was born. When Jess returns, it is hard not to avoid each other in a small town, especially when your friends and siblings are conniving, making them remember what they had. Will Grayson prove to Jess, that he was always waiting for her to return? Ultimately, will they be able to overcome the truth of why Jess really left? Can Grayson and Jessica show that soulmates really can overcome it all? Absolutely a one click book!!!!!!!

Michaels did not disappoint on this one. Similar to the Arrowood Brothers series and Salvation Series, Return to Us gave a picture of a beautiful love story plus a glimpse into the family and friends. She’s one of my favorite writers because of how to makes you feel as if you really know the characters. Andi and Sebastian were the icing on the cake!!

Stunning and emotional second chance romance
Corinne Michaels has started a new series with a beautiful, emotion and enchanting second chance romance. Return to Us shows that love can not only help someone heal, it can also give two hearts that have been broken for years the jump start that they need to be happy and satisfied.
Grayson and Jessica were in love once upon a time, but their backgrounds didn't mesh, and Grayson's family did not approve. Jessica left, and just stayed away for years because leaving Grayson was one of the hardest things she'd ever done. But an accident sends Jessica home to recuperate, and wouldn't you know, the best kind of healing she can do is learning to love Grayson again.
Hearing their story unfold was beautiful. Their love was able to transcend they years, the hurt, the family manipulation, and really free them both. I can't wait for more in this series. Corinne Michaels builds families that are complicated, sometimes a little bit tortured, but she always gives the entire family the happily-ever-after results that they are due.
The audio, narrated by Andi Arndt and Sebastian York, is stunning, emotional and engrossing.

Perfect!
This is one of those books that makes you realize how all the other books you thought were good, just aren’t even close to the level of story telling of this one. Can’t really describe what it is that makes this so good - all the pieces just fell in to their right places. I am very much looking forward to this series!

It was ok but hard to get through.
I started skipping 30 second intervals to speed it up half way through unfortunately. Personally I understand some of her issues but to not face them with a therapist is stupid and kind of weak IMHO. “I don’t want to talk about that” is like a slap in the face to those who want help and can’t get it. Wanting to live this blissfully ignorant life (as she put it) is unrealistic. You have someone there to help you and you’re wasting it! Not many people have that opportunity. Idk. Clearly NOT talking about things is why you feel this way in the beginning. Has no one researched how holding in shame will damage you and your relationships? Or that vulnerability isn’t always a bad thing? Ugh.
I didn’t really “like” her as you can tell and when I read I’m not looking for weak heroines. I want strong, badass women that I can emulate, relate to, or look up to. The book wasn’t horrible and the narrators are always top notch at their job. It just wasn’t the story for me I guess.

So close but missed the finality!
Overall the book was pretty good but I don’t know what happened at the end. It was like Ms. Michael just stopped writing the story and jumped into the epilogue. The wedding should had been their happy ending and finality of the book. Instead, the wedding was cut short by incorporating the exposure of the new “couple.” I get where Ms. Michael was going but in my opinion it came at the expense of this great love story.

Great start for this series
It’s a great start for this series. I love Grayson and Jessica! Amelia/Melia is so adorable. The second chance/single dad trope is always a great story from Corinne Michaels books and it’s always a good read. Andi and Sebastian are always amazing!
The rest of the characters in this book are amazing too and I’ll be looking forward for their own love story. I can’t wait for the next book.
