Choose Me Anyway

Advance Reader Copy

Blurb

Their love was doomed from the beginning. That never stopped them.

She was off limits. He was unforgettable.

Veronica Davis always knew falling for her brother's best friend was a terrible idea. Dale was practically part of her family—and the one person she could never stop wanting.

What began in secret became the kind of love neither of them knew how to walk away from. But Veronica dreamed of seeing the world, while Dale wanted roots, marriage, and a family. Loving each other was easy. Choosing whose future to sacrifice wasn't.

Years later, the feelings they thought they'd buried are still there—and this time, wanting each other may be the least complicated part.

Choose Me Anyway is an emotional, closed-door brother's-best-friend and second-chance romance about first love, impossible choices, and two people discovering that sometimes love deserves another decision.
