[Sequel to Sparks Fly]

At the sound of the words "soulmate" or "love", Belinda Clarke can't help but scoff. Having been hurt by someone she trusts, Belinda has lost faith in love. As far as she is concerned, soulmates do not exist. Not anymore.

Under the persuasion of her best friend, Belinda downloads a trending dating app that promises to find people their soulmates, treating it as a game. To her horror, she finds herself matched with the person she hates the most: her ex-boyfriend, Jace Leighton.

Five years ago, Jace made his life's biggest mistake of breaking his girlfriend's heart into a million pieces. They have since lost contact with each other, and he has lost all hopes of reuniting with her. By a stroke of luck, he meets her again online. This time, Jace is determined not to let such an amazing girl go.

Trust takes time and effort to build, but once broken, it takes even longer to mend. He loves her, but she hates him. Whether they can sort out their differences remains a question.

"Listen Kenzy, I know I've been an ass and truthfully maybe you shouldn't even bother returning my calls. You're right, I've been nothing but awful since we met, driving you away yet desperate to keep you close" My heart clinches, but I dared not breathe. Too afraid to give in, too afraid that if I reach for the phone, I'll call. I'll call to make it right. I want to make it right, because this man affects me more than I ever thought he would. But it isn't right. I can't give myself false hope. "Please just talk to me, let me explain. It's not you.....it's me. I'm the asshole. You don't deserve this, you didn't. ..." He pauses and I hold my breath still, fearing he'd hear me breathe, yet, it's only his left voicemail on the phone. Not him "I'm sorry.......dammit!" And that's it, our one sided conversation ends and I'm more broken than before. What happens when your world crashes? When the people you thought would be there forever literally runs through the door without a second glance backwards? What happens with taking a step outside your comfort zone? What happens when that step outside that comfort zone turns into....well unexpected? Personalities clash, feelings are crushed and just maybe that one person you ignore turns out to be the damn life savers. Easy enough, but did I forget to mention they belong to someone else? Will what happens in summer stay with summer? The beautiful cover was done by @LittleRedConverse23, go check out her great work ❤❤❤ #thebuttercupawards2020 #RoseAwards

But what if this taboo existence returns for the summer and brings back more than just painful memories of yesterday? Suddenly, Reese isn't too sure who or what to trust--or if she can even trust herself. *** For Reese, the day Jace Hamilton--the guy who ruined her entire high school experience--left was the happiest day of her life. No more humiliation and embarrassing moments. But what if she finds out that he's coming back? And what if it's not just the moments that are catching up with her? What if yesterday is also making its comeback? And what if... there's more to the story than what she knew? Can yesterday be rewritten--from love to hate and hate to love, making memories like those of yesterday's?
