Her heart was shattered. He’s ready to piece it back together.

Ashley

The day I discovered my husband of six years had been unfaithful, I should have been devastated. But all I felt was confirmation—confirmation that the whispers in our small town were true. Now, I’m left picking up the pieces of my life, and the one person who’s been my anchor is Ricky. My childhood best friend. The boy who once knew me better than anyone. And the more time I spend with him, the more I start to wonder—what would it feel like to kiss him? To let him hold me? To love him the way I never got to before?

Ricky

I’ve loved her since we were twelve. And by the time I finally found the courage to tell her, she was already his. I stepped aside, watched from the sidelines, knowing she deserved the world—even if it wasn’t with me. But now, he’s gone. He broke her heart, and she’s looking to me for comfort. Only, I don’t want to be her shoulder to cry on. I want to be her future, her forever. And this time, I won’t let her go.

Trigger Warning: There is cheating on the page but not with the MMC.

Review:

Ashley can't believe her luck. Her husband is a lying, cheating, jerk face... (hey, I had to keep it clean) and when she finds out; she heads to the one place she knows she can call home - to Ricky. And when her divorce finalizes... she's back at Ricky's bar.

Ricky has always had feelings for Ashley, but the timing was never right when he tried to bring it to her attention. But when things come crashing down around Ashley, will he take advantage of it... of course not, he's a gentleman. And when she gets divorced? Does he take advantage then? Nope. He does everything right. AND I LOVE IT!

The two things that didn't sit right with me were that Ashley would call Ricky "Rick" and he hates that name. And if she's friends like they say she is in the book, she should know that. And... there are at least 2 instances where he mentions (in his head, mind you) that he hates that name, but we don't know why. I know it's a novella, but inquiring minds want to know. :)
