5.0 out of 5 stars “He’s Home for Me. He Always has Been.”
Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2019
Verified Purchase
Scarlett Kincaid couldn’t wait to put the small town of New Hope, South Carolina, in the rearview mirror once she graduated from high school. She never felt at home in her small town and knew she was destined for greater things. She moved to Nashville, became a country music star, made a new life and never looked back. But now her father is ill and needs Scarlett, so she's returning to New Hope for the first time in twelve years. Her face may be on a billboard at the edge of town, but not everyone is welcoming Scarlett with open arms. Not only is her sister bitter and resentful toward Scarlett, but the way Scarlett left her best friend, Tucker Andrews, without a word in the years that she's been gone, means he's plenty frosty to her when he sees her again.

It’s a curious thing to me how two people can write a book together and have the story flow seamlessly and the characters be so complex and authentic, but these two ladies knocked it out of the park with Tucker and Scarlett's story. I quickly fell in love with both of these main characters, although I was all Team Tucker through most of the book. Then Scarlett snuck in there, facing her shortcomings and working to improve herself, and darn if she didn’t win me over, too.

The premise for the story is friends-turned-enemies to lovers and it's Scarlett's earlier treatment of Tucker that made me not like her very much initially. Tucker was good enough to be her friend outside of school, but she kind of mean girled him at school, then never contacted him after she left town. He was understandably hurt but got over it pretty quickly once Scarlett came home. But just because they faced their feelings and put away the past doesn’t mean there still weren’t challenges and misunderstandings that needed to be worked out.

I truly hope there's more to come from New Hope because I love all of these characters and I'm not ready to say goodbye. I can easily see a potential story with Dean, Tucker's brother, and if their cousin Scooter gets his own book, sign me up now, because that one should be epic! Grab your copy of Scarlett and Tucker's story and fall in love with everything that is New Hope!

5.0 out of 5 stars Favorite co-write! Beautiful HEA!

I have seriously been waiting for this day for what seems like forever! Two of my all time favorite authors co-wrote a book and it is unbelievable. I finished this one in less than 24 hours.

The writing was so good. Honestly flowed so well. You wouldn’t know it was composed by two different authors. They took you right there to New Hope South Carolina and everywhere in between.

Everything about this book from the details in the different POV from both Scarlett and Tucker to the cover.... simple perfection. Childhood best friends reconnecting after over a decade of silence... this is seriously so swoon worthy!

If I could rate higher than 5 stars, I would. It deserves it.

If you are looking for that beautiful small town romance, with a single dad.... this is your book. The perfect love story with the best Happily Ever After!

5.0 out of 5 stars Five Still On Cloud 9 Stars!
Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2019

Who says you can't go home? It may have taken Scarlett 12 years to finally return home after hitting it big in the country music scene, but a call from her sister has her rushing back to the sleepy little town she left behind. And although her return home isn't quite as welcoming as she had initially thought, it doesn't take her long to fit back in and reconnect with her old friend, Tucker.

I'm still on cloud 9 after devouring Already Gone in one sitting. In this fun, new collaboration, Kristen Proby and KL Grayson will have you quickly falling in love with their new leading lady and the hunky man who has loved her since they were kids. And trust me, all that pent up attraction Tucker's had tucked away all these years makes for a pretty explosive show when he and Scarlett finally give in to it. I absolutely loved everything about this book; the pace and timing were fantastic and the characters were just so down to earth and relatable. I hope this is just the first of many great things to come from this dynamic writing duo. ❤

5.0 out of 5 stars My new favorite author duet!
Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2019

Reading Already Gone by Kristen Proby and KL Grayson was like listening to my new favorite song. Their voices blended together so beautifully it wasn't a duet, but a melody sang by one perfect voice chapter after chapter.

Scarlett and Tucker, two childhood friends who felt so much more, spend most of the book trying to find just the right pitch in their relationship to do just that. She's the girl who left their small town for stardom and never looked back. He's the boy who stayed behind and dug roots that shouldn't be removed. But the one thing that can't be denied is the undeniable chemistry between them that time can't erase. The question is whether or not time has taught them their song can be beautiful even if it's not perfect?

Readers of both Kristen Proby and KL Grayson should already have this ready to read. And if you're new to them, it's a great introduction to the feisty heroines and strong heroes both women are known for writing.
