I received a copy of Back To You by Priscilla Glenn in exchange for an honest review.
Back To You by Priscilla Glenn follows Lauren Monroe. When she first laid eyes on Michael Delaney back in high school, she instantly knew that he was trouble. But, she challenged herself and saw something in him that made her really question whether or not he was truly a bad boy. Against her better judgement, she took a chance and they formed an unlikely friendship. And although she should have known better, it still ended badly. Eight years later, Lauren encounters Michael once again as she embarks on a new career. She refuses to rehash her devastation from the past but that seems more difficult than she thought it would be. Will she be able to forgive and forget? Or will he end up hurting her again just like he did in the beginning?
Back To You is a poignant and charming look at the idea of second chances. I absolutely fell in love with Lauren and Michael from the get go and found myself rooting for a chance encounter after the first ended so badly. Like me, Priscilla is a big believer in second chances and I absolutely loved the way that she handled this one. Poetic yet intense, this relationship definitely has its ups and downs, but who hasn’t believed in someone even though they knew they shouldn’t? I’ve had many girlfriends who have had instances like this one, and some work out, some don’t. But, none have been as heartwarming or heart wrenching as this one. I loved every second. Who can deny what the heart really wants?
[Rating: 5/5]
