Blurb





Once upon a
time, a girl loved a boy and he loved her back. They lived happily ever after.

But our
story was never that simple.

I loved
Josh with all I had, right until the day he left. Now, all these years later,
he was back—and wanting me the way I’d always longed for him. Except now, I
belonged to someone else. Someone who never left me the way Josh had. I figured
that was the end of our story. I couldn’t alter the past.

I didn’t
want to rewrite my future.

Brianna was
always more than my best friend. She was the shining light in my black hole of
an existence, and I loved her with every cell and bone in my body. I wasn’t
good enough for her, though—more the villain than the hero in our fairy tale.
When I had to leave, I vowed to come back a better man—for her. But when I
finally did return, she wasn’t waiting for me anymore. She had someone new, her
very own Prince Charming. Did that mean our story was over? I couldn't change
our past.

It was time
to rewrite our ending.

Review by Jen Skewes

I am such a sucker for not only a second chance romance but I also love a friends to lovers story.   Stephanie Rose did a fantastic job with the story about two best friends who have not seen each other in ten years.  They never admitted their feelings for each other back then and they both regret it, but now is there second chance.  It is time for them to rewrite the ending to their story.  There was some drama and angst as well.  And a few twists and turns that I did not see coming!

Brianna and Josh have been best friends since they first met in Kindergarten.  They have been through everything together.  The ups and downs in their lives were dealt with together.  They love and friendship they had was their support system through life.  But when things started to get really bad at home for Josh and he found himself having to take care of things on his own, he started pushing his best friend away.  And at some point when he found himself in trouble he had no choice but to leave.  He hated leaving Bri, but in his mind he wasn’t good enough for her.  He wanted her to move on and be happy.

It has been ten years since Brianna has seen Josh.  She tried to move on in the beginning just as he told her to, but it was too hard.  The love that she has for this man never wavered, not matter what happened over the pat ten years.  She has finally moved on and is with someone else now, when Josh Falco decides to move back to town.  And he is back for her.  His has every intention of making Brianna his girl, they way is should have been all those years ago.  Bri is just getting on with her life.  She loves Josh and cannot deny her feelings, but she doesn’t want to hurt anyone.  Plus the fact that Josh left her once before leaves her heart open to being broken again.  Josh wants her happy, but he also wants her in his life forever, as more than his best friend.  Will these two best friends get the happily ever after they have both wanted with each other?

This is the first book that I have read by this author, and I loved it.  We get to see the special moments from the past that helps you to see just how special their friendship was.  I loved reading about the day that they met and how precious it was.  The writing was fantastic, there were twist and turns that I did not see coming, and ones that really made me wonder what would happen next.  

Brianna and Josh belonged together.  Josh loved her and you could feel how much. He was hot and sexy but so sweet and kind.  He made some mistakes in his life but he definitely redeemed himself.  Rewrite was a beautiful love story between two best friends that will make your heart happy in the end.

Excerpt

“This place
is amazing, Josh.”
My chest
swelled with pride as Brianna’s widened eyes darted around the shop. Maybe it
wasn’t really my place, but Uncle
Billy trusted me enough to run it on my own. I hired the employees, handled the
books, and met with customers. He depended on me instead of waiting for me to
fuck up. The local troublemaker came back and made good, but that wasn’t such
an easy sell for everyone. Good thing I didn’t give a shit about everyone. The
only opinion that ever mattered stood in front of me, beaming with pride.
My mouth
split in a wide grin. “Thanks. It’s getting there. Hoping things pick up a
little after the holidays. No one wants a new bike when there’s an inch of ice
on the ground.” I laughed until Brianna’s face fell.
“Can I ask
you something?” She slid into the chair in my office as her lips pursed.
“Of
course.” I leaned my hip against the edge of my desk and crossed my arms.
“What’s up, Cupcake?”
“Did . . .
did you really have a new client in Manhattan last week, when you drove me to
work?”
I took in a
deep breath and exhaled slowly. “Why would you ask that?”
“Scott and I—”
She shook her head and waved her hand. “It’s nothing. Don’t mind me.”
“No.” I
nudged her ankle with my foot. “Let me guess. Scott isn’t too happy about me
hanging around so much.” I raised an eyebrow.
Brianna
reluctantly nodded. “It’s a guy thing, I guess.” She chuckled to herself. “They
get territorial if someone else tries to play with their toys.” She laughed
until she realized what she said and then covered her mouth with her eyes huge.
She was so fucking cute I couldn’t stand it. “I didn’t mean play, I meant . . .” She dropped her
head into her hands, and I couldn’t hold in a laugh anymore.
“C’mon,
Bri. I’m dying to know.” I peeled her fingers away from her face and crouched
in front of her. “What did you mean? Scott thinks I want to play with you? Don’t tell him about the
GI Joe and Barbie castle we made when we were kids. He’ll flip the fuck out.”
Her cheeks flushed as she nudged my shoulder.
I caught
her hand and held it in both of mine. As our gazes locked, laughter stopped.
There was no way in hell what I was feeling was only one-sided. I doubted it
ever was.
We didn’t
talk about it, but I remembered every moment of that night at my apartment.
Brianna rushing over to take care of me, the tortured look on her face when I
asked her to get into bed with me. It wasn’t my finest hour, but I needed her.
My soul cried out for her that night and she came, like she always did. She may
have ignored my wimpy confession, but when she said she loved me, I knew she
didn’t mean as only her best friend.
“Josh,”
Brianna pleaded on a whisper. “Don’t, please.”
“Don’t
please what, Bri?” Feeling brazen, I tucked a piece of hair behind her ear and
cupped her cheek. I ran my thumb along the delicate curve of her jaw. Her eyes
fluttered, urging me on. “Don’t touch you?” I let my finger drift over her full
bottom lip. “Don’t kiss you?” I whispered with a husky rasp. Our faces were so
close, our lips brushed. Brianna’s mouth parted, and I uttered a curse under my
breath. We were so damn close. All we had to do was close that distance. Her
hand drifted up my shoulder and clutched the back of my neck.
“Josh,”
Brianna sighed as she rested her forehead against mine. “We . . . We can’t.”
Her hand drifted down my jaw. Her hooded eyes and flushed cheeks disagreed with
the words sputtering from her mouth. I caught her hand and pressed a soft kiss
to her palm. It trembled as she took in a quick gasp.
“Yes, we
can, Bri,” I whispered as I leaned in. “You’re so damn beautiful.” Shit, I almost tasted her. She stilled
as I cupped her neck and inched closer.
