Book Blurb:
A second chance romance. What happens when you fall for the boy next door? Bea Norwood had the market on normal. Drama free life? Check. A single-mother who doubled as her confidant and partner in crime? Check. A neighbor and best friend she trusted more than anyone? Check. But that was until the day her mother remarried. The day that changed everything. When her best friend’s cousin, Liam Falcon, is sent to live with his aunt and uncle to clean up his act, Bea finds herself falling for the boy next door. With their hearts so infinitely entwined, Bea turns to Liam as her only escape from her new step-brother’s daily torment at home. Bea thought their love could conquer anything. But she was wrong. Love was for fools, and she was the biggest fool of them all. When Liam left Lakeport, he took her heart with him, shattering the organ to pieces. Six years later, Liam takes a trip back to Lakeport to visit his family, and to see HER. His first love. The girl who holds his heart. The same girl who shattered it six years ago without looking back. Liam is hell-bent on seeing Bea again after six years, but what he finds tears his heart in half. Bea Norwood is a shell of the girl he fell in love with. Underneath the baggy clothes, and pale skin, he knows she’s still in there somewhere, he just needs to find her. Liam will stop at nothing to win his girl back, but sometimes, ignorance is bliss, and Liam isn’t prepared for Bea’s truth.
Renee’s Five Star Review

I am going to go ahead and warn you that this book holds some major triggers. I am not a reader who has triggers. I read some dark messed up stuff that makes me question my sanity at times. However Ache tore my heart and soul out of my body, stomped on it and holy cow I am not sure I will ever be the same. I don’t want to say a word about what is going to go on in this book. You need to be just as shocked and heartbroken as I was. You need to feel these emotions blindly like I did. Just know that it is not easy. WIth that said thought underneath it all lays the story of two people who are soulmates. Who are meant to be not matter what one of the other goes thought. Please don’t lay this book down. Please just push through it and you will get to that place where you know that your going to make it and S.M. Soto has brought you through this with a lot of darkness, some light in places you do not expect it and a love that will heal your heart once you get to that point. This book is amazing. I loved it and I hated it in equal measure only because I wanted to make it all better or go and murder a character named Connor!!! You will too I guarantee you that. Dont fret thought that character gets his in the end and it is so satisfying I might have laughed a little but I still wouldn’t have minded putting him in the ground myself. Oh the emotions from this book!!!! Just get it, read it and hold on for dear life.
