Never Forgot You

by Kath Farr

She's seeking a new start. He's now got kids he needs to protect. Is their seaside encounter the start of a second chance?

After a devastating car accident ripped her future away, Liv Donato is determined to recover and take her next step. But when she returns to the quiet town where she grew up, the last person she expects to run into is the high school sweetheart who broke her heart.

Andrew Macmillan's insecurities run deep. Reeling from a bitter separation, the single dad worries any misstep will lose him his tense custody battle. And the guilt he still carries over his teenage attempts to do the right thing means he's in no shape to reconnect with the woman he once thought he'd marry.

Fearing she's betraying her most intimate memories, Liv resists the old yearnings that stir every time they meet. And while Andrew deeply respects the tough choices Liv is facing, he's also concerned he's not putting his kids first... and heading toward heartbreak.

Will love triumph over loss to lead them to a happily ever after?

Never Forgot You is the captivating first book in the Harbour Town contemporary romance series. If you like characters with depth, slow-burn attraction, and tight-knit communities, then you'll adore Kath Farr's cocktail of sun, sea, and spice.

Loved

I loved this book so so much! A couple things made me want to cry, but I loved the ending

[Annette · Rating 3 out of 5]

I like Andrew, his dedication to his kids and his patience and determination with Liv are admirable. I enjoyed the water events, they were exciting and detailed. They both have some big previous marriage obstacles that I think they could have worked through better together, as a couple. Their chemistry was mutual but the rekindling seemed more one-sided on Andrew's part, Liv was very fragile, rightly so, but was she even ready to rekindle, she definitely showed potential until triggered, repeatedly. I think they needed a bit more romantic dating to uplift their second chance so the happy moments would balance out all difficult and emotional things coming against their HEA. I enjoyed getting to know the supporting and practical Harbour Town community. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Liv has lost everything she got and more in a terrible accident. She is trying to find peace by moving to Harbour Town, to her nonno’s house. There she meets her first love Andrew and his children.
At the beginning of the book, it wasn't easy to read due to the long paragraphs and narrative style, but something told me to go on reading. And I don’t regret it at all, just the opposite.
The story is very emotional, with unexpected twists and turns that make you enjoy this book. The characters are lovely, and it has beautiful scenes that I laughed at and others that put a smile on my face. Absolutely fantastic. Just a piece of advice; have a box of tissues at hand.

What an absolute breath of fresh air! Kath Farr is brilliant at building relatable and engaging characters in gripping storylines. Liv is a heartbroken heroine full of grit, with a backstory to pull at the heartstrings, Andrew is a misunderstood dad who is just trying his best to help her believe in love again. I cried more than once reading this beautiful love story and could not recommend more!

I've never lived in Australia, but I love that this book mentioned some of the places I've heard of in Victoria - the Mornington Peninsula, Williamstown, etc. It gave it an authenticity. I also thought the characters and the way they developed were realistic. I'd like to read more in this series.

This is a heartfelt story. Andrew and Liv are great characters who get a second chance at love. I was captivated right from the beginning, I look forward to reading the next book in the series.

Over all it was an okay read. Bit slow at times but also had a few laugh out loud moments.

Being a light hearted read it was a good palate cleanser but I don’t think I would be reading the rest of the series.

It was well written and being set in Melbourne Australia was real nice and familiar.

Really enjoyable read

[Heather Payne · Rating 5 out of 5]

So much physical attraction and soo much history, some shared and lots of individual angst had me wanting to shake the two would / would not be lovers and make them talk, rather than keep operating on assumptions about each other!!!

The setting is such a great community, providing breadth of relationships and role models of all sorts.

A great read that had me wondering how it would end .... until the end arrived.
