About this listen

Daisy Lee Monroe thought she'd brushed the dust of Lovett, Texas, off her high-heeled shoes years ago, but she's come back home only to find that little has changed. Her sister is still crazy, and her mom still has pink plastic flamingos in her front yard. And Jackson Lamott Parrish, the bad boy she'd left behind, is still so sexy it hurts. She'd like nothing better than to avoid this particular man, but she can't. Daisy has something to say to Jackson, and she's not going anywhere until he listens.

Jackson learned his lesson about Daisy the hard way, and now the only word he's interested in hearing from Daisy's red lips is good-bye. But she's popping up everywhere, and he doesn't believe in coincidence. It seems the only way to keep her quiet is with his mouth, but kissing Daisy had once been his downfall. Is he strong enough to resist her now? Strong enough to watch her walk out of his life again? Strong enough to make her stay?

Tough story

I liked this book but it was not a light hearted story as the book cover would suggest. I was amazed at the devastating deception of the heroine, Daisy, so much so that I had to listen to the whole story to find out how the author would rationalize and overcome this deception to the lead man, Jack. I have mixed feelings, as the other listeners did. It was a sweet ending about forgiveness but it was an unbelievably high expectation that Jack work through his feelings in a couple of days. Daisy had 15 years of knowing her secret and expected Jack to get over it and move on in a matter of hours. Daisy doesn't seem to understand how long it takes to work through the emotional turmoil that her deception creates. It wasn't fair to Jack and it made it difficult for me to empathize with Daisy.

interesting

The layers of love and friendship that were explored here and the ways people breakup in bad ways was fun and interesting. Would have liked an epiloge...but oh well.

Good

It had a bit of angst- which I don’t like but it had excellent resolution at the end. Lots of humor dispersed throughout the book that made you keep listening. Past sins needs present forgiveness.

Yikes

This is my first Rachel Gibson book, and I’m a sucker for a good romance but this is not it. It was truly hard to finish this book purely because of how much of an a** the male love interest is. Even when he’s “being nice” his dialogue is full of condescending attitude and sexist rhetoric, he has zero empathy or emotional intelligence and throws tantrums like a large child. You can have a strong manly character without making him insufferable and this really missed the mark. Daisy wasn’t a perfect character either but she owned up to her shit and tried to make it right.
This read puts me off the idea of reading any of Rachel’s other books.

😏 Mixed emotions😔

I usually do not like stories where a woman leaves pregnant and don't tell the father until many years later. I have no sympathy and no tolerance for that in real life. And in fiction it turns me off. With that said the author did a good job in trying to with the plot she said out. the rest of the story line I enjoyed even though they all have something to do with the main plot which is Secrets From the Past. I would have a lot to say. I had already given up enough info for spoilers on this story. Give it a chance despite what I said.

Narrator has poorly timed pauses

Took me a while to get past the narrator’s strangely timed pauses. But, enjoyed the plot and personalities.
