Myles and Everleigh had a forever love, but Miles' refusal to leave the game had her running away. Then tragedy brought her back home, and Miles was determined to make her stay. Twelve years is a long time to be apart, but the years were swept away.

This was my favorite of the whole group. Miles' past wasn't overdone or overly dramatic. Everleigh and her fiancé were a temporary distraction that I was glad to see get taken care of. Who doesn't drop everything when their love loses a parent? Leigh's mom dying was the emotional backdrop the story needed and I loved how the writing showed her dad's struggles, her own, and the strain on the budding relationship she was rekindling with Miles. I loved their love. And finding out why Leigh was so afraid and why she felt like she had to leave was a great plot point. Miles' anger and frustration with her was understandable, but so was her need to protect him. I liked the push/ pull of that. Leigh's friends were great, and Miles' extended family was still funny and touching. Great book.
