Laura Anderson hasn’t spoken to Zack Partridge since the night he broke her heart at senior prom.

She planned to keep it that way.

Eight years later, she’s back in Crystal Creek to open the flower shop she’s poured everything into… and the boy who shattered her trust is living next door.

Worse? He’s the PR rep assigned to help launch her business.

Zack wants a second chance. Laura wants boundaries. Her shop is her fresh start—and she refuses to let the man who once walked away derail it.

But when Zack begins leaving heartfelt confession notes and proving he’s no longer the careless teenager she remembers, old sparks refuse to stay buried.

Trusting him again could cost her more than her heart.

Will she risk everything for a second chance at first love… or protect herself from making the same devastating mistake twice?

Quick, Sweet Read

Laura is moving back home. She's bought an adorable little house and is the proud owner of the local florist she loved as a teen. Her life is good. Then she realizes her next-door neighbor is the guy who humiliated her and broke her heart at prom. And he's the PR rep assigned to help her launch her florist, so there's no way to avoid him. She's determined to keep things professional, but Zack needs her to understand what really happened in high school. He needs her to give him a second chance because he's never forgotten his best friend, the girl he fell for, and he still wants her.This is a sweet second-chance romance. I generally think major groveling is required for the guy to be given a second chance, but once Zach's side of the story comes out, I was firmly in his corner. And his method of breaking through Laura's defense was adorable. I was a big fan. Laura was a bit frustrating, but once she came around, she and Zach made a cute couple. The rest of the cast of characters were all likable as well. Quick, sweet read.

Cute, sweet, fun

Get a bit frustrated with her and then she figured it out too. I love her hobbies and friends. I'm really excited to read the next book now that I've read the reast and think I've a good grasp on all the "background" characters. ^_^
