I really love the Hadley’s and I’m looking forward to reading Caroline’s book next. This book is centered around Cade and Bailey. Will they get a second chance? Bailey left town, three years ago, breaking Cade’s heart. Now, she’s returned. She’s still keeping things from Cade, so will that be a dealbreaker or will he give her another chance? I loved catching up with Charlie and Colt and their kids, in this book. Please go back and make sure, when Jenna is mentioned, that her last name is Fisher. Editing was a little better than Colt’s book, but still needs work.

Cade Hadley had his heart broken three years ago by Bailey Cooper when she unexpectedly left town. After she left, the truth came out about why the Coopers really picked up and moved. Bailey's father had been a criminal, stealing and embezzling from the wealthy families of the small Georgia town Cade calls home. Now she's back and her motives are questionable.
Bailey Cooper's life has fallen apart, she's broke, her criminal father has killed himself, and her mother has completely checked out. She comes back to Georgia to try to make a life for herself and her mother. She takes a job at a sleazy bar and also works to earn her cosmetology license, all the while determined to payback Cade and rebuild her reputation.
The storyline takes place over the course of many months, but it doesn't feel dragged out. My heart broke for both Cade and Bailey as they tried to pick up the pieces, but soon realized they couldn't just go back to the way they were before. I loved Bailey's attitude of not wanting anymore handouts and wanting to feel the accomplishment of doing it on her own. While I understood why she told her mother certain things, it also frustrated me that she wasn't just honest. The coming together and then breaking apart did get a bit tedious after a while, but I guess it was needed.
The cast of characters in this book were great! I adored BB and loved how everyone embraced who he was.
I will say that while I really loved this book, the plot and storyline were a little too similar to the first book in the series Colton. That being said, I loved Colton so I guess you go with what works. I highly recommend reading Colton first, just so you can get a feel for the characters, but it's not necessary.
Overall, great story! Can't wait for Caroline's book!

Bailey loved Cade enough to walk away. Bailey wanted to protect Cade from her parents so she left town but her heart stayed with Cade. Of course he was devastated when she left and vowed to move on but Cade could find women to fill his bed but never his heart. Looking for a fresh start from family drama, Bailey returns but is it too late? Cade tries to guard his heart but it always belonged to Bailey. This was such a good story. The chemistry between Bailey and Cade was undeniable but they were so full of pride that I just wanted to shake them. This story had twists and surprises and some very heartfelt moments and I enjoyed each one of them.

There are times a girl just doesn't want to wait, "he chuckled as my hand fumbled with his belt buckle, trying to rip it from the leather. “We’ve got time.” He removed my hand and undid the damn thing himself. Once that impediment was gone, I slipped my hand inside his jeans. He moaned my name. “Eff, Bay,” he mumbled taking my mouth in his again." I loved this book, Case was just such a good guy.
