Tumble

Dogwood Lane, Book 1

By: Adriana Locke

Narrated by: Aiden Snow, Summer Morton

A Washington Post and Amazon Charts bestseller.

From USA Today bestselling author Adriana Locke comes a witty romance about first love and second chances.

After being burned by her dream job in New York City, sports journalist Neely Kimber suddenly finds herself jobless and paying a long-overdue visit to her hometown in Tennessee. Her plan? Relax, reset, and head back up the corporate ladder. There’s just one unexpected step. Neely’s back in Dogwood Lane for barely a day when she sees the man she ran from nine years ago: the bad boy next door who was her first kiss, her first love, and her first heartbreak.

Devoted single dad Dane Madden knows he hurt Neely in the worst way. He’s got a lot to make up for. And as passionate as their reconnection is, it’s a lot to hope for. Having her back in his arms feels so right. But falling in love all over again with a woman who wants to live a world away is bound to go so wrong.

What’s it going to take for Neely to give him - and Dogwood Lane - just one more chance?

A sweet story

This was a very sweet story about second chance romance. I look forward to the next book in this series.

5 stars

This is my first full length book of Adrianas that I am reading. I really loved this one and how some of the things that happened with the main characters was a bit different. Im going to have to see who the next book is about I hope it is who I think it is.

Awesome second chance romance!

Neely Kimber is back home in Kentucky after quitting her lucrative NYC job. She just needs some time to regroup while she is job hunting. Of course returning home means finally facing her high school sweetheart...the one who broke her heart...the reason why she’s been gone for a decade.
Single father Dane Madden never really got over Neely. One indiscretion with Neely’s hs bff caused him to, not only break Neely’s heart, but his heart as well. Now she’s back and, even though he’s trying his best to resist, seeing Neely with his daughter is stirring up old feelings.
But at the end of the day, will Neely choose a NYC job over love...and will Dane let her walk away a second time?

This was a new to me author

I actually listened to the audio version of this book and enjoyed it. The storyline and narration were both great. This was my first book by this author, but I’ve already started the next one. I can’t wait to get to the back list. I’ve discovered that I love second chance romance. Single dad just throws it up another notch. Dane and Neely and Mia make an adorable family.

Sweet

This was such a sweet and swoony second chance romance.
I love the closeness of the small town, the old memories and new adventures. Dane is such a great guy, he is kind and caring and protective.
Neeley is sweet and smart. This was full of happy moments, sad moments and plenty of laughs.
