Publisher's summary

Allie Ross is not living the life she once dreamed. Her law career ended before it ever started, her parents landed in jail for running a Ponzi scheme, and she just inherited her grandmother's B&B - which is nice, even if it is full of extra-toed cats. As for her love life...she'd rather not talk about it.

When Jack Carpenter reaches out to reconnect with Allie, the girl who broke his heart in college, his plan is to impress her with the adult he's become. Sure, he was a deadbeat then, but life has forced him to grow up. And it's a relief to find out that things didn't necessarily go the way Allie expected either.

As Allie and Jack get reacquainted, they rediscover the things they loved - and hated - about each other. But who they are now isn't who they were then, and secrets - old and new - will test whether they have a future together, or if the past is destined to repeat itself.

Would have given a 4...

But that out of the blue extra conflict towards the end was off pitting and too serious a topic for such a light book (of course SOMETHING was going to break them up again, but wtf was that). I think it assumed too much that the reader would just find that something to brush off.

Great Read

This Time Around by Tawna Fenske was a great Read. I loved reading Allie and Jack's story. They both dated for a long time about sixteen years ago. Allie left Jack because he wasn't maturing. Now they become reacquainted even though life hasn't turned out the way they thought. This was a great read. I absolutely loved their story and can't wait to read more by Tawna Fenske.

A bit slow in the midbut worth getting to the end

A bit slow in the middle but worth getting to the end .
The story isn't realistic but that's why we read to escape reality right? It's a romance for sure but heart warming too

Mixed bag.

I almost didn’t complete because the story did grab me at first. Then it picked up, there was a little mystery, some romance and a dab of angst. The ending was alright so I gave everything a3 ⭐️
