Second Chance Romance
💔 What do you do when the "one who got away" is the only one who can save you? ​I’ve read my fair share of Lia Duchaine, but Carter and Savannah’s story didn't just meet my expectations—it completely shattered them. This is, without a doubt, my absolute favorite of her collection.
