Synopsis:
The time is now.
New emotional and hopeful standalone novel by New York Times bestselling author S.L. Scott.
I’d almost forgotten what it felt like to smile, to laugh, and to really live. Until I met him.
Heart-stoppingly handsome.
Totally forbidden.
Keats Matthews looked at me like I was something special.
He was escaping his past. I wanted to escape my present. Together, we fell hard and fast and knew we had found forever. Or so we thought …
Six years later, his shoulders are broader than I remembered, his charming smile thaws my frozen heart, and it’s so tempting to run my fingers through his hair like I did years ago. But it’s the tenderness and warmth in his brown eyes that remind me of the forever we almost shared.
It’s magic when we’re together again. Our chemistry has only magnified. Seeing him, confident and more irresistible than ever, has me falling for him all over again and hoping for a second chance.
But he still believes our timing was off before. He’s wrong. It was the secret I kept hidden that was our undoing. Time hasn’t healed old wounds, and not everything hidden has come to light. When it does, we’ll stand together or fall apart. Either way, we must find out.
Author's Note: This contemporary standalone packs in the romance, heart-swoons, and love that never dies, but does not contain cheating or love triangles. It's one love in this book. Two souls that are meant for each other who will have to overcome obstacles to be together.
Spoiler-free Review: Then There Was You by S.L. Scott
Then There Was You by S.L. ScottMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
There Was Yours by S.L. Scott felt like a hug to the soul and then completely wrecked me before putting me back together again. S.L. Scott… what did you do to my heart?! I have a book hangover in the best way.
Sosie and Keats’ story was magical and tragic in the most unforgettable way. One of those once-in-a-lifetime, soul-deep, twin flame connections that completely consumes you. The kind of love that feels rare, powerful, and a little bit soul-sucking in the best way.
And then it’s gone.
What follows is an emotional ride filled with family drama, complicated relationships, and a once-in-a-lifetime journey of the heart and soul. Every obstacle adds another layer, deepening the story and making it feel raw, real, and impossible to put down.
S.L. Scott delivered something truly poetic, passionate, and deeply emotional. This story will own a piece of my heart. This wasn’t just a love story; it was about loss, longing, and finding your way back to something that once felt impossible to hold onto. I loved this one. One-click worthy. I can’t wait to make graphics for this one!
