The years have been hell for Dane, and seeing Bethany again only reopens wounds he long thought closed.
When they realize the flames of their past love never died, Bethany and Dane will need to confess all before they can have a chance to reclaim their life that once should have been.
But when the truth of the past is finally revealed, will they still stand as a couple?

Come Full Circle, the story of Bethany and Dane, is the story of two young lovers torn apart for 15 years.
Engaged to be married, Bethany Minor fled town after finding out her fiance, Dane, had cheated on her and impregnated someone else.
Now Bethany, a widow, is back in town for the funeral of her mother and has swept back into Dane's life like a whirlwind.
Dane knows he made mistakes in the past. He lives with the consequences of his actions 15 years ago every day of his life. Now 15 years older and wiser, he has lost everything: his son, his wife, his family. Now Bethany, the one he let get away, is back, and all Dane can think about is being with her once again.
With all Bethany is going through, can she find it in her heart to forgive him when she learns the truth? Will two lovers who have experienced life, death, and everything in between finally come full circle and get their happily ever after?
Come Full Circle is yet another wonderful, cozy read from Natalie-Nicole. You can feel the depths of the emotions coming from both Bethany and Dane, and although they have both been hurt in the past - and even by each other - you can't help but wish for a happy ending for the couple.
Come Full Circle is another book that will be kept in my personal collection to be read over and over again. I highly recommend everyone picks up a copy to enjoy while curled up in a cozy reading spot sipping on a nice warm drink ;)
This is just a beautiful love story. Dane broke up with Bethany years ago right before their wedding. I don’t know if sharing the reason would be a spoiler since it isn’t in the blurb, so I won’t, but I thought about this while I was reading. I sat here thinking, no way would I take him back, I wouldn’t even consider it. Then I remembered that between my ex-husband and my husband, I did consider taking back and ex that did something similar to me, so I couldn’t say never at that point in my life.
I can honestly say, it is the first book I have read where the main character worked in a funeral home. That funeral home brought them back together again. Bethany went back home to plan her mother’s funeral and of course, ran into Dane when she went make the plans. Does she trust him again? Or should she do what has to be done and return back to where she came from.
I loved it. It was a quick (96 pages) sweet read that just left me feeling happy.
This book had me hooked by the first chapter! It was an easy fast read because the characters just draw you in. Natalie-Nicole Bates wrote a great one here!

Dane's life has been hell since then. He's divorced, and his child died from cancer. Bethany is widowed. Her husband died in a plane crash 2 years prior.
