This Time Around by Jane Suen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Katie is returning to her small hometown for a friend’s wedding. She hasn’t returned in years…and the last time she did, she spent most of the time working anyway. When the bride sets her up with a plus one for the big day, she is not sure how to feel when she learns it is her ex-boyfriend that she hasn’t spoken to since she broke his heart ten years ago.

Chase’s is less than thrilled when his cousin lets him know that she has volunteered him to be his ex-girlfriend’s plus one. He is finally over her. His life now revolves around raising his nephew. The feelings of resentment towards Katie are right there on the surface…but she is not the same girl he remembers from ten years ago.

As feelings begin getting involved, they are reminded that their time is limited because Katie must return home. But, when a family emergency arises, will Katie head back to work or will she finally put her own happiness first?!?

This was a quick and easy read. The story is fast paced, as the timeline for the story is really only a couple of days. You could feel the love that Katie and Chase shared as teenagers…and the agony and regret Katie feels over the way things ended. It was a story that pulled me in from the beginning. I finished it in one sitting.
