"She may be strong, but she's not unbreakable. July Tate is a force to be reckoned with-a big, strong blond with a heart the size of her whole town--but beneath her capable exterior lie the scars of a devastating lost love. To July, love equals vulnerability, and she can't afford either. Joe Anderson knew from the first moment he saw her that July was The One. Now, after years apart, he's back, driven by the need to explain his disappearance. In search of the girl who filled his teenage dreams, he finds instead a powerhouse woman who steals his heart and soul. Joe embodies everything July has been missing, and together they spark as brightly as ever. But with Joe around, July, who can usually outwork four men is suddenly making mistakes right and left. And that scares her. Because if July falls again, this time her beloved town could go down with her. Readers of Olivia Dade, Talia Hibbert, and Lucy Score will adore this sexy Southern small town contemporary romance between a cinnamon roll hero and a plus size heroine looking for a second chance at love"--

SIGHHHHH I love this series.
When July lost the love of her life as a teen, she has avoided making any real attachments since, but when Joe walks into her restaurant, she can barely hold herself together.
When he explains what happened, she understands but can she reopen her heart to the man her almost destroyed her?
I really loved the first book in the series and I set the bar really high. The author has created a world that includes beautiful plus sized women who are vunerable and so sweet that I get super attached.
My heart broke for both July and Joe. He just disappeared on her one day and she never heard from him again and she fell into dispair. I loved how gently the book tackles severe depression. Joe's father literally midnight moved them to another country and it was some hellish abuse for Joe and he didn't know his letters weren't being sent. UGH I was so sad and mad...
The story was devastating and heartfelt and I was completely invested.
I need the next installment NOWWWWW
This second chance, small town book will warm your heart.
There is a ton of miscommunication and I'm not usually ok with it in books but I understood the need for it here so get both the books in this series today!
4.5 stars
