Release Date: January 14
Griffin Powell has avoided his hometown since he left it in the rearview years ago. But the former Marine understands duty and promises, and that means dragging himself back home as part of his brother's wedding party. Which gets him thinking about a promise he made to a woman, after the best night of his life. When she, too, shows up as part of the wedding, it feels like a sign.
Always a bridesmaid, professor Samantha Ferguson is dreading this bachelorette weekend. She’s the one of the lone single ladies, and the matron of honor is her high school nemesis. Sam figures she can suck it up and deal, until she comes face-to-face with the big, sexy ginger mistake from her past. Can this trip home get any worse?
Turns out it can. Not only are she and Griff paired up for all the bridal party bonding activities, forcing her to relive high school hell, but Sam's best friend goes missing. When no one takes her concerns seriously, she starts a search herself--and ends up with an unwanted bodyguard whose very presence reminds her of a hot Vegas night she’s tried hard to forget.

MY REVIEW
Samantha does not want or need to come face to face with the mistake that left her in a hotel room with a note and divorce papers years ago. Unfortunately, Griffin is at the wedding for his brother so she can't exactly avoid him, especially when it becomes obvious they're being paired together purposefully. Will Samantha grant Griffin the forgiveness and the second chance it's obvious he's seeking?
Griffin meant what he wrote on the note he left Samantha the morning after their wedding - that he'd come back for her. It just took longer than he had planned to make himself into the kind of man who deserves the amazing woman that his only love is. He's still not sure he's good enough for her, but it's past time he tried for the second chance he's always wanted. If only he could convince Samantha to take a chance on him again.
Second chances are some of my favorite kind of stories, especially when they're written like Come a Little Closer - extremely likable characters who work at their second chance, who completely redeem themselves, lots of chemistry, and more than their fair share of heart. Griffin and Samantha had obviously never gotten over each other, so I loved that they were able to make it work and were able to finally work on the happiness they deserved.
