I was really intrigued but unfortunately it fell a little flat for me. Not sure if it was a me thing or a book thing but I just couldn’t get into the storyline and the characters were just unappealing to me. It wasn’t a bad book but just my personal taste. The romance was quite sweet though.

Sweet, second chance romance
This book is a clean Christian romance. I found the story stalled a bit in places where Kayden and Liam kept being hung up on events from the past. The back and forth was a bit overdone and some of the added angst seemed forced. That being said, I found the writing easy to read and the overall message sweet. This is a good choice for an afternoon escape read.

This is such a sweet story. High school sweethearts break up in high school, and are unexpectedly reunited 15 years later. The author gives readers glimpses from the perspectives of both our lovebirds. It is interesting to watch the personal growth that has taken place through the intervening years. I found myself rooting for the characters to find their way back to one another, yet I also would have understood if they hadn’t been able to do so.

This is a sweet story involving a young woman who reunites with her high school sweetheart who broke her heart several years later. It’s a story of redemption that shows a person can change if they want to. This story is a clean romance and address the issue of forgiveness and moving on from a deep hurt. The fmc does get a little frustrating with her indecisiveness at times but when you stop and ask yourself how you would feel you can relate to her. It was good to see the hea lose his temper at times as well and not just be a doormat through the entire book!

This is such a sweet and clean romance that is all about the characters. The focus was all on them and their growth. It was a lovely second chance story and it was nice to see how they developed.
It is quite a quick read but is definitely an enjoyable one. I found myself invested in the characters and where the story was going. It is a little more tame than I would usually go for in terms of the writing style however I still found myself enjoying the overall story.

Have you ever had that yearning for a long lost love? Liam has pined after Kayden for years, but he realizes that he royally screwed up in high school.

Things start falling apart right away and one would wonder if this relationship is bound to be doomed again. Can they move away from the past and see that they’ve both changed?
I enjoyed this story of Liam and Kayden! It’s a pretty intense read at times and I found myself wanting to smack them both but the end is ultimately as it should be. I enjoyed this clean romance and a new-to-me author! I’ll be looking for more of Cherry’s books!

This book is a sweet second chance romance. It is a short story so quite a quick read but still really enjoyable. I really liked the characters and the story of young love and teenage hormones is relatable.
Kayden and Liam were school sweethearts. Kayden wants to save herself for marriage but when teenage hormones get the better of him Liam ends up breaking her heart and also losing the girl he loves.
Fast forward and things are different. Kayden is a successful therapist and has moved on with her life. That is until her past love comes back begging for forgiveness and a second chance.
Both Kayden and Liam have changed and matured but will Kayden be able to let go of the past to try for a future with the man Liam has no become? Or will the pain from past betrayals stop them having an happy ever after?

Love’s Full Circle by Cherry Christensen
This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Love’s Full Circle is an amazing read. I can’t wait for more by this author.
Kayden is now a marriage therapist and still heartbroken from fifteen years before. When the boy turned man that broke her heart turns up can she forgive him? Can she get the forever with him that she’s dreamed about? The quote I chose for Kayden is: “I don’t know what you’re talking about, but you didn’t seem to mind if I fibbed when we dated so you could get your way. In fact, you didn’t mind me doing all kinds of degrading things as long as you got exactly what you wanted.”
Liam has never forgotten Kayden. Fifteen years go by and he hears her voice on the radio. He makes the short distance from the school to her office to see her. The quote I chose for Liam is: “I’m done running. I know I blew it with you in high school, but because of your influence — and God’s grace — I’ve been given a second chance.”
Highly recommended for Inspirational Contemporary Romance lovers.

Kayden and Liam were high school sweethearts and Kayden promised to save herself for marriage so when hormones get the better of Liam he makes a rash decision that cost him the girl that would own his heart into adulthood….
15 years later Kayden and Liam’s parhs cross again and Liam has done some growing up physically, emotionally and spiritually and he’s willing to do anything to win Kayden over again and the man has the patience of a saint I’ll give him that ! Don’t get me wrong I get why Kayden has hurts but girl you have to let go sometime !
While I loved being part of Kayden and Liam’s journey I must just add that Grandma Flora is one of the most entertains characters I’ve met in a long time , she’s honest and knows the power of prayer and her throbbing big toe had me in stitches 😂😂😂🤗
Once again the value and gift of forgiveness to both transgressor and “victim “ came across and really pulled at my heart strings , we all have a hurt that we rather hold on to than let go and we forget what a relief it is when we actually let go of it and we realise how it was holding us back and how much we have lost out on ….
I loved these characters and yes I got a little frustrated with Kayden but that is exactly what made her so relatable ! Thank you Liam for believing in your love ❣️

High School sweethearts Liam and Kayden truly cared for each other… until Liam turned his back on Kayden and broke her heart. Fifteen years later they reconnect by chance … but will Kayden learn to forgive and let Liam love her again?
I loved this story, it flowed so easily and I can totally relate to the characters. Second chance clean romance full of love, sweet moments and learning about forgiveness.

This is a sweet, clean, Christian romance novel. It’s quite a short book, so is good for a nice relaxing afternoon read. This author was new to me so I was unsure what to expect from this book.
It is a second chance romance. Kayden and Liam were high school sweethearts who split up when Liam kept pushing to move their relationship on to a more intimate level which Kayden did not want.
Years Later and Liam has walked into Kayden’s life again and this time wants to win her over but Kayden doesn’t want her heart broken by Liam again.
Teenage Liam, I wanted to slap but I’m sure he’s just a typical horny teenager who wants a more intimate relationship. Adult Liam I really liked. He knew he’s done wrong as was willing to di anything to make things work. Kayden, I just couldn’t connect with at all. She really exasperated me on so many levels, making me struggle to enjoy this book as much as I could have.
I like a second chance romance but struggled with this one. I liked the author’s writing style and the story flowed well but Kayden spoiled my enjoyment.

The story begins with broken-hearted teen romance, giving the background on what went wrong for Liam and Kayden. I enjoyed following the characters as they rekindled their connection and experienced the ups and downs that come with learning to trust again. I wasn’t expecting the religious tilt but it’s easy to breeze through if that isn’t your thing. Overall it was a typical romance, predictable but a reliable quick and heart felt read.

Loves Full Circle was a sweet, contemporary, clean second chance romance. Kayden and Liam were high school sweethearts. Kayden wanted to save herself for marriage and wore a purity bracelet. Liam did not want the same and was a jerk about it. He gave her an ultimatum and she walked away. 15 years later he runs into her again and he wants another chance. Kayden has always been the one that got away and he always regretted how he treated her. She is pretty set in her ways and doesn’t really trust him, for good reason. Will she give him a chance? You will have to read to find out. I hope we will get an update on them. This was a great read!

Kayden and Liam made me fall in love! It was a beautiful second chance romance. It rang out true that real/true love conquerors all and for these 2 it did. They had to work through many issues and Liam had to prove that he was a new man, but they were able to overcome it all. Its truly a great story wrapped in a pretty package, and it will stick with you. Love, drama, and forgiveness at its best!

Sometimes I read such heavy books and need a sweet romance to clear my mind. That’s exactly what I got with this book. Kayden and Liam truly stole my heart. This story is about giving first love a second Chance. It’s everything you could possibly want from a sweet second Chance romance. You can’t help but feel every emotion the author brings into the story. You also can’t help but root for Liam and Kayden, the draw you in so easily. It’s a sweet story that’s well written and paced nicely! Five stars all the way and highly recommended.

A lovely sweet contemporary romance with a second chance at love theme, which kept me happily turning the pages. Kayden James and Liam had a relationship when they were younger which ended badly, having both moved on and achieved great things career wise, neither of them have met ‘the one’. Successful marriage and family therapist, Kayden thought she had put the past behind her until, Liam, the man who broke her heart turns up years later, claiming he’s changed. Liam’s one regret was letting Kayden slip through his fingers, and he’s determined to prove to her that he’s changed, and that she can trust him, but she’s not making it easy for him. I liked both Kayden and Liam’s characters and could feel the chemistry between them, but could also understand Kayden’s reluctance at giving Liam a second chance. However, I was cheering them on hoping they would both get their HEA. This was a fairly quick read, but an enjoyable and engaging one with a heartwarming storyline and likeable characters.

This book was a very good depiction of how to handle situations that aren’t easy, and are emotionally painful, when you are trying to forgive someone for inflicting pain with their carelessness. I found the characters relatable and well formed, as well as the scenery and the storyline. This book is very good, and Cherry Christensen is a gifted author with much insight. I liked that there wasn’t a ton of unnecessary drama, but enough to keep the storyline moving and keep the characters growing and maturing while working toward rekindling their romance of days past, without a full walk down memory lane. I was engaged and interested from the moment I picked it up, and fell asleep while trying to finish because I was too close not to and didn’t want to put it down. I would highly recommend this book.

I found this story to be amazing. It might be short, but the characters have plenty of time to develop and the story line has plenty of time to develop as well (which is amazing). I love how Kayden sticks to what she wants, which inspires me because it is hard to stay true to yourself. She defiantly has a surprise when Liam shows up though. I love how they give their love another chance.

This is the first book that I have read by this author, and it was great! This is a feel-good wholesome story that will make anyone who loves romance novels happy. While the main characters at the beginning of the story had held a little animosity towards each other, but that changed when they met up again. While they knew each other previously and had drifted apart they were able to connect. This was a story that I enjoyed in a few short hours as I could not put it down and cannot wait to read more by this author!

Love’s Full Circle by Cherry Christensen is a sweet contemporary second chance romance- with angst, drama, religion, Christian values, and a ‘clean’ storyline. It is under 200 pages long- which makes it a very quick and easy read.
Kayden and Liam have a past history- the two having been sweethearts back in high school- until Liam left Kayden with a broken heart. She has since moved on and made a life for herself as a successful therapist. But when Liam shows up out of the blue, full of regret for his past actions, she has no interest I having her heart broken, again. Will he be able to convince her to take a second chance on love- or will she shut him out for good? You will need to read the story if you want to find out what happens….
I really wanted to love this story far more than I did- but I found it really difficult to connect with the characters or invest in their story. Maybe it is just me, and I just had an ‘off’ reading day- so I will revisit this book again in a few weeks to see if I still feel the same way.
Thank you, Cherry Christensen!

This is a clean Christian romance story where lost love has the chance to become more once again. The writing is good, and the premise is to, but I couldn’t really connect with the characters. They were together in high school and him being a hormonal teenager wanted more but she stuck to her guns (good girl), and he moved on. I wanted to smack him.
Years later coming face to face with their past he knows he made a mistake and wants to fix things. He wants to see if they can make things work now as adults. She is his one that got away after all. However, she is unforgiving and unable to let go of the past. I don’t condone what he did, but they were kids when she was hurt and I understand her hurt BUT she is and adult now, but she doesn’t act like it. I really wanted to smack her too at times.
All in all, I was really frustrated with the way these two were regarding their relationships past and present, but the writing is good.
There is a message in this second chance romance to believe in yourself and know your morals but there is also room for forgiveness.
Just because it didn’t gel for me doesn’t mean you should not give it a go especially if you love clean romance stories.

This book was a sweet second chance romance. I enjoyed this read. It was a nice change of pace.
Kayden and Liam have a past. A past in which Liam was quite a jerk. Kayden is happy with her life. She’s happy with her career. She can help people have the happy ending she didn’t get. Liam knows he messed up. It’s his one regret. Now that they are working in the same city, this is his chance to work for forgiveness and get Kayden back. It’s not nearly as easy as he had hoped and she’s not willing to trust him after their past. Will Kayden find it in her heart to forgive Liam or is the past too much to overcome?
I really enjoyed this book. Liam really was a jerk at first but I think he did well at redeeming himself. Forgiveness isn’t easy and Kayden was entitled to her pain. This book was very well written and I’m glad I picked it up.

Kayden and Liam are heart meltingly adorable together. I absolutely love the idea that Kayden wants to save herself for marriage while she’s in high school and when the book picks up 15 years later she is still holding firm to her beliefs. It’s such a refreshing change to see virtue celebrated as special, what’s even better is that Liam has realized how much he hurt Kayden back in high school and wants to make it better. He doesn’t only want to make amends, he wants her back. Kayden feels the familiar tug but is so scared to let her guard down and let him back in. This is a beautiful love story about faith, personal beliefs, true love and second chances. People really can mature and become better people if they’re just given the chance. This is one sweet, inspirational love story that you won’t want to miss.

This is a sweet story about second chances. Kayden’s first love, Liam, walked away when she wouldn’t pursue a physical relationship with him, staying true to her faith. When they reconnect years later, the flame is still alive, but can Kayden ever trust Liam again?
The author writes a sweet, clean story reflecting true connection between characters. Even in a shorter story, the author develops the characters and their relationship well. It was a fast, enjoyable read!

I personally really love second chance romances, so when I saw this beautiful cover and read the synopsis I knew right away that I needed to read this book. The writer has a wonderful writing style and the characters were terrific. However, I did get a little annoyed with how our leading lady acts at certain times in the book. Liam and Kayden used to be high school sweethearts, but what happens when he renters her life fifteen years later? Will Kayden be able to see that he’s a different man then the boy he was fifteen years ago? Or will she let the past define her future? You’ll have to read this wonderful second chance romance to find out for yourself.

I enjoyed this romance story. This is a well written story where two people finally have a chance at romance coming full circle. It is a great story that is engaging and fast paced. I enjoyed being pulled into the story by Liam and Kayden from the start. They are connectable and bring the story to life. They made the story easy and entertaining to read. They kept me coming back for more. I enjoyed how the author’s use of details to not only make the story realistic but also really pop. The chemistry and growth of Liam and Kayden throughout the story is great. This is a shorter story that was hard to put down. A great story that I highly recommend. Find out if their love for each other can come full circle.

What a beautiful story! Yes, the beginning had a rough start for Liam and Kayden. Fifteen years later, they are reunited by a radio show. They have a lot of past hurts to work through. Can they do it? Oh, nice try but I’m not to going to give it away. You’ll have to read it and find out. The story is beautifully written. I am partially to the story because I’m from Denver and love trying to figure out all the places mentioned. I do want to know what a Colorado Crushie is. 🙂 The characters are so relatable because they feel real. They feel like they could be your friends. The issues are real. The descriptions are spot on. The plot is so very smooth. There is no chop going from spot to spot. Well written and very well-done. I would give it more than a 5 if I could. Another best of 2022.

I really enjoyed this read, it was impacting in its own way, and I found it beautiful to read and watch the story and characters develop and connect on different levels as I read. I found the writing very easy flowing, and was easy to fall in love with this book. Really loved it on so many levels!
This book was beautiful and eye opening. I loved reading about Kayden and Liam. Their past still weighed heavily on them. But, I am as a firm believer if something is meant to be, it will find it way back to you. Kayden had a lot of happiness towards Kayden. They had to work thru together a lot of stuff that was far from easy. In the end they found ground that was more beautiful then the most prettiest garden. As I said I loved reading about their second chance, and falling in love all over again, and both realizing their mistakes of the past, and realizing what they had was real, and still is!
Loved this book on so many levels. I could not get enough of the flow of the story. It was moving with all the right emotions. I really enjoyed this author as well. highly recommend this author and their book. Both are a must read and a very high recommendation from me!
