Review
Since his parents passed away when he was a teenager Colm had to grow up quickly and be the big brother that his sister needed. He was the dependable one, both when it came to his family and his teammates, but with all the changes and hurdles being thrown at him at once he is floundering and even though he was everyone else’s support system he won’t accept it in return.
Imogen has a painful past of her own and all she wants is to make other people happy by doing what she thinks they want with no regard of the consequences to herself. She doesn’t believe she deserves love but one night with Colm could be the gamechanger that she needs.
The chemistry between them was off the charts from the beginning but dealing with the other parts of their lives is where the challenge truly is. This is a story about healing and new beginnings between two people who definitely deserve their happy ever after and this story is only made better when we get to catch up with the other characters we know and love from this series.
