For new and old fans of the Reflections universe, bestselling author A.L. Woods brings you an angsty second-chance married couple romance…

Dougie
Rich girl, poor boy.
It was the oldest story.
Yet it was ours.
I knew Penelope was different the moment I laid eyes on her.
But all she wanted was to be friends-with-benefits.
My best friend told me not to f*ck the new girl.
He didn’t say anything about marrying her.
Or what might happen if we broke our vows.

Penelope
I was the rebellious trust fund baby.
The one who threw the finger to her parents.
I designed a life I loved.
No rules, no expectations.
Something easy.
Dougie didn’t want easy, he wanted commitment.
Babies, marriage, the postcard perfect house in the ‘burbs.
The life. It was all ours.
Until it wasn’t.
All we had now were lies and betrayal.
Lies that might just cost us everything.

From the moment that these two locked eyes on one another they were meant to be together. Penelope loves to defy her parents at every turn that she gets. When she meets a handsome construction worker at her designer job, she thinks that he is going to be the perfect distraction. Dougie isn’t the kind of guy that likes to have a one-night stand, so will he be able to convince her that it’s all worth it?
I knew going into this that I would going be getting an emotional read because I have read previous books by this author, and this was everything and more. I loved the raw/realistic love they had and how Woods was able to convey that in this wonderful read.
