Never Date Your Ex

by Genevieve Goodwin

Escaping to her hometown of Seabrook leads Jamie straight into the arms of her old flame, Aidan Brice. After all these years, his steely blue eyes and charming smile can still melt her heart. That is until she discovers that no good, arrogant gorilla is out to crush her dreams by taking what she holds most dear!

Aidan Brice is a man with a string of tragedies in his past. He has settled into his life comfortably as a single father and has no interest in falling in love. But when Jamie Connolly shows up unexpectedly in Seabrook, all bets are off. She was the one who stole his teenage heart years ago, then disappeared from Seabrook without a trace. Seeing her awakens romantic feelings for her, despite his mistrust and a conflict doomed to keep them apart forever.

Jamie Connolly has returned to the tiny town of Seabrook to escape her high society Ex who is stalking her. Once an impoverished orphan, Jamie is now a famous designer in Palm Beach, but she is tiring of the jet-set life style. On a nostalgic whim, she hires her old crush, Architect, Aidan Brice to remodel a cottage she’s bought in her hometown. It is soon obvious the innocent kiss they once shared as teenagers has left its mark forever on her heart. But can they overcome the web of secrets and the battle of wills that lie between them?

Can they give love a second chance?

A really sweet story about misunderstandings and second chances. A lot could have been avoided if only Aiden and Jamie had communicated more instead of assuming. This is a heartwarming story that will draw you in from the beginning and have you rooting for their HEA. With a little danger, mixed in it has an intriguing storyline that will capture your attention from the start and you will be hooked till the end. The character development was great with real and likable qualities. The story was told in a way with such wonderful descriptions you can clearly picture each scene for yourself. A really sweet and heartwarming story you do not want to miss!

Jamie is a high-society decorator, and does a lot of charity work. But she needs a break, especially from a man she dated briefly who is acting obsessively. So she buys a beach shack in her hometown to fix up. And hires her teenage crush Aiden to do the remodel. She wants to buy the home she was raised in, but so does Aiden. Both have their own reasons, which they don’t share. Even as they grow close, they still keep secrets. And 2 people almost die at the hands of a crazy man. A good book, although putting a period after Miss several times in the book irritated me.

[did not finish] kind of bland... the heroine was stalk by a crazy ex who entered her house and watched her sleep, and she still can think of having a fling with the hero just kind of give me an eye roll.
