Want Me Always

 Want Me Always b

y Lea Nolan

The book follows Wren and Smith.

Smith Conners grew up on Heron Harbor.  Wren Donovan regularly visited the island with her father and sisters growing up.  Smith and Wren became close friends until age fifteen when Wren’s father lost his funding.  They no longer went to the island.

Wren returns to Heron Harbor at 34 when she took a week off from her law firm.  It should have been her wedding week but her ex-fiancé Pierce was in Jamaica with Lolita (woman he cheated with).  

Wren needed a pick me up the first night in Heron Harbor and went to Smith’s restaurant, Harbor’s Edge. Smith can’t believe his luck and decides to spend the week making Wren realize he is the one for her.  

They had the best week and fell hard for each other. 

Wren finds out Pierce and Lolita got married.  Pierce and Wren both made partner at the firm but she has to move to Atlanta to accept it.  

Wren had decided to leaves the firm and start her own practice in Heron Harbor to be with Smith.  Until she sees Smith with his ex-flame Brittany and assumed they were flirting.  Smith follows her to set things straight, but Wren still leaves saying she was too damaged for a relationship.

Once in Atlanta, she decided to submit Smith’s cookbook to a literary agent.  The agent helps him get published and he goes on a book tour.  The book tour has a stop in Atlanta.  His mom visits Wren and convinces her to attend his event.

While at the event, Wren realizes he dedicated the cookbook to her.  She takes a chance and hopes he gives her another chance.  

They end up together living in Heron Harbor where she also opens her own practice.  

If you like second chances, friends to lover or it was also you troupes then Want Me Always is a perfect choice.  

I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.  I enjoyed the story so much I purchased book 2 Claim Me Now and will order book 3 Hold Me Forever once it’s released.
