Fate took Cassandra down a path she never expected.

Then a small town in Colorado gave her exactly what she needed—until tragedy left her heartbroken and devastated. Alone with only her child and her memories, Cassie struggled to put her life back together, one day at a time, piece by piece. Finding love again was something she never thought possible. That was, until she ran into an unlikely stranger who flipped her entire world on its axis.

Aidan had a secret locked away in his heart; one that would surely send Cassie running the second she discovered it. He held onto her closely and kept his secret guarded, but one careless mistake could reveal all.

Their friendship was strong, their moments beautiful, and the love that brewed between them intense—something neither denied. The only problem? Cassie was slowly letting him into her life. Could she let herself get close to the one person she didn’t think she should?

Her mind tells her to run, but her heart tells her to stay.

About the Author

I’m a girl with a passion for reading and desire for writing. You’ll find me either reading or sitting by my laptop writing. I have too many favorite books to list but they would all most likely fall under the romance category. I’m a sucker for a good love story, shedding a few tears, and having my heart melted by an amazing book boyfriend! 🙂 If I get free time you might find me watching a movie, my second love!

Review

I was lucky enough to have beta read this story. I absolutely fell in love with the author’s writing after reading her first novel, Away. I thought that nothing could top that story and boy, I was wrong!! Stay brings the tears, drama, heat, and overall experience to a whole new level.

Now, we first meet Cassie, who’s living life after the sudden death of Jase. It’s one year later and she’s making her way through life, hanging on by mere shreds of hope. After an unexpected run in with a handsome stranger, she feels her body come back to life. Who was this man she bumped into? She couldn’t get him out of her mind and she had the tiniest inclination that somehow she met him before. It’s so hard not to say too much because I don’t want to give anything away. All I can say is this book is freaking awesome!! BA Wolfe has done it again! I am not a crier and OH-EM-GEE!! I bawled and bawled like a brand new baby!

I read this book months ago and as I type this review, I can still feel the emotions that I experienced while reading it. Talk about a serious BOOK HANGOVER!! This story has it all; love, romance, drama, some HOT lovin’, and most of all; HOPE. Hope, that even when you’re in the dumps, after your first love passes away, there’s still that everlasting love that is waiting for you.

And as you read this story, be prepared. Tissues Required. Gut-wrenching, heart warming, kindle throwing events will occur.

I cannot wait for the next installment of the series. I’m so excited for MOOOOOSSEEE!!!!

Congratulations to BA Wolfe for another phenomenal read that will go down as one the “Best Books of 2014” on my list. You rocked it girl!!! <3
