Just Exes by Charity Ferrell

5.0

This second chance romance had so much emotion packed into the pages, I found myself not being able to put it down!
Talk about a gut wrenching read filled with heartbreak, trauma, loathing and flaming hot sex!

Lauren and Gage’s story was so emotional! Their past was haunted by secrets and betrayal. Their future was going to end up the same way if they couldn’t find a way to trust each other and open up about what happened during those years apart.

Their second chance at love in a small town brought out the best and worst in both main characters. Lauren was career driven, stubborn, independent and spunky. Gage was also a career driven individual with a past he couldn’t run from and walls up so high, no one close to him could get over them.

The suspense of why Lauren left Gage when they were 18 and what Gage was hiding from his past in Chicago made this a completely suspenseful romance. I was holding my breathe the entire read, waiting for everything to come to light.

The HEA ending was nothing short of amazing and wrapped up this tragic story nicely. I can’t wait to see more of Gage and Lauren in the next book of the series!
