He has one last chance to deserve the girl of his dreams...
Overachiever River Purcell was never supposed to be a struggling single mom, working double shifts just to make ends meet. Nor was she supposed to be abandoned by her high school sweetheart, breaking her heart into a thousand jagged pieces. Now Vaughn De Matteo is back in town, his sights set on her...and River is in danger of drowning a second time.
No one believed Hook's resident bad boy was good enough for River. Not even Vaughn himself. But he'll fight like hell to win back the woman he never stopped loving, to keep the daughter he never expected, and convince himself he's worth their love in the process--even if he has to rely on their fierce and undeniable sexual chemistry.
But even as River's body arches under his hungered touch, the demons of the past lurk in the shadows. Waiting for Vaughn to repeat his mistakes one last time...

My Review 4 STARS
**My thanks to NetGalley and Entangled Publishing LLC, for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**
I always enjoy a book by this author. We get good rounded characters, lots of passion and a mix of emotions and some stress thrown into the mix.
River is a single mum, left behind when the man she loves with all her heart walked out on her after being together for 4 years and after getting back from the military. However her brother has finally managed to track him down and let him know that he has a daughter.
Vaughn has always thought badly of himself and having very little support growing up he only had himself and choosing how others saw him. He has only ever really loved River and has never forgotten her, however now he is back home and he wants to see his daughter.
One look at River and all the feelings crash back on him, however he will do whatever it takes to be a part of her and his daughters life. The chemistry is still very much there, but both of them are stronger than before and this time, River fights back for what she wants and will not accept Vaugh pulling back.
Both characters have some good support behind them, however when the past comes back and tries to tare them apart, they both fight to stay together to get their happy ending.
