[Small Town / Second Chance] When Jen heads back to her hometown after ten years to celebrate her grandmother's 70th birthday, she knows she'll have to face Matt, once the love of her life. But what both of them don't expect is to have the feelings they had long buried inside to flourish back to life along with walls of resentment, and a sizzling attraction. ***** Jennifer Bloom has completely escaped her small-town past. She's a successful interior designer with great clients and everything she's ever wanted. But when she's called back home to help plan her grandmother's 70th birthday party, she's partnered up with Matthew Hunt - once the love of her life. He's lived in town his whole life, and he's handsome, strong, kind, and the only man who's ever made her heart race. Experiencing life with Matthew again reminds Jennifer of all the things she's missing, even though she's got everything she once wanted. At one point, all those years ago, they thought they'd be spending their lives together, but life threw them a curveball, forcing her to make the decision to leave and never look back. Now, they realize love was never an issue; their problem has always been everything that comes in-between. He'd never move to the city, and Jennifer can't leave the life she's built behind. Walls of resentment still block the way, even though their love for each other still burns strong in their hearts. Can true love bridge the distance between them? Is love ever enough to make a relationship work? Is it finally their second chance?

Needing extra cash to renovate his house he finds himself accepting a bodyguard job on the side, guarding the daughter of one of the most prestigious men in the city, Harmoni Pearson. What was supposed to be an easy side job turned out to be the ride of his life. Believing she doesn't need protecting, she does her best to make William quit, but soon she realises that she is in more danger than she thought. Will romance bloom between them or will they keep pushing each other away? Will the young and handsome William be able to keep her safe, or will they perish at the hands of those who want them dead? I'm really not good at summaries, but I really hope you will still give my story a try. COMPLETED 17.09.2020✔️ "I seriously love your plot. I have read many stories about bodyguard but your stands" "In my opinion, the book was overall great! The plot wasn't cliche (which was awesome), the main character could actually fight (not many MCs can for some reason), and it wasn't immediate love at the beginning of the story. All of those factors made the story really unique, and I'm sure that it would be hard to find another story like that!" "Great chapter as expected...never ever a disappointment...I don't know how you do it but this is good.
