He was my everything.

I loved him.

For over twenty years.

And everyone knew, including him.

But he never loved me back.

Not once.

Not ever.

So I moved on.

Until now.

Now he's back, and wants to make me his.

He's everything I've ever wanted.

I should be happy.

But there's one problem.
My fiancé.

{REVIEW}

“Jake and Kacey’s story felt authentic, their ups and downs felt real and the fight for what’s in their hearts tore me to pieces of pure emotion whilst reading.”

A second chance/best-friends brother romance with a twist has never brought out so many emotions than when I picked up Why Now? by Carey Heywood. Sexy, romantic, heartfelt and down-right Alpha crazy; Jake and Kacey’s story was the perfect blend of profound heart with the sugar and spice of romance that is oh so perfect. I love a good second chance/ best-friends brother romance and this story blew me away without a doubt because it’s got all the elements you want from a story; a little emotion and steam combined with bad timing and a few boundaries crossed.

Sometimes it’s hard to really explain the moments you love, the moments you cherish when it comes to a book and whilst reading Why Now? every moment was held to my heart, every turn of the page I felt the characters pure emotions reel of the pages and come to life. I connected with the every single word Ms Heywood wrote in both perspectives of Jake and Kacey and it was a testament of the greatness that can be written in romance when you explore more than the stereotypical bounds of sub-genres.

Heywood created a world of tumbling emotions, passionate chemistry and beautiful written words to convey an unbelievably beautiful story in Jake and Kacey. There was obstacle, clarity, confusion and raw beauty which together bound beautifully. I also loved the quirky fun side of the interactions as well, as I pictured the characters come to life and the flair of passion that dimensionally was created between Jake and Kacey’s interactions and their friends bounced like a Grand Slam tennis match of banter.

To me a true story lies in what you take away from the characters and the story and without a shadow of doubt Why Now? by Carey Heywood is a story I will hold forever. Jake and Kacey’s journey was full of raw emotion and pure heart combined with stunning writing. I could write a million words to express my admiration and to share the heart and soul of this book but words tend to cease and not do justice to the written scripture of Why Now?. As I finished reading Why Now? the beauty in the characters, the story and wanting to know more about the secondary characters was full in my heart  and I can’t wait to read more hopefully about the secondary characters. A beautiful and stunning story about a guy you’ve loved from afar opens his eyes to the possibility of your connection.
