This is book # 2 in the Oxford series .   This book is just fine as a standalone novel to read.  I always tell my readers that it is better to read a series book in order as the author intended.  This series is so much fun when read in order. Jackson and Mollie go way back.  He used to be married to her sister.  The same one who raised her after her mother died.  Mollie was in love with him even then. Mollie gets to know the "after football" Jackson when he moves to New York for work.  She is still there for school, and they get together and catch up.  He is bowled over with how grown up she is now. Together, they spark some serious heat!  This story is an amazing story of love, loss, and forgiveness.  I cried and I laughed and enjoyed every page.  Be wise: Pre-order!  You will be glad that this book is on your shelf.  I intend to re-read my copy when it comes out.  I give this story a 5/5 Kitty's Paws ...
