Once Her Man, Always Her Man (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
A great second chance story! Luke, during a tragic and painful time in his life, made a decision that broke his heart and the girl he loved. It wasn’t a matter of right or wrong, he just didn’t handle it well. Then, he was a boy finding his way. Eleven years later, he was a man staring down the consequences of that decision – trying to make things right.I enjoyed the emotion and the heat between him and Becca – and the back story that lays the foundation for the upcoming books. I’m very much looking forward to reading them. I really enjoyed this book. I'm impressed with the character development Heather Long was able to accomplish in such a short story. I would have given it 5 stars except one line near the end changed everything for me. You're probably wondering what the line was: "She was a virgin."Why for the love of God do they always make the heroine a virgin? And an almost 30 year old virgin at that. She waited 11 years for him? I found that hard to believe. This is a very specific pet peeve of mine and probably won't bother most people. Still it grates on my nerves. Are we supposed to believe that if the hero had never walked back into her life that she would have died a virgin? Still, that was one small thing that bothered me and if it wasn't for that then I would have given it 5 stars.
What do You think about Once Her Man, Always Her Man (2012)?
Short story. I would have liked more with this... more back story, even more of their future.
