About the Book
Her: Just a word, yet one person came to mind.
Morrigan St. Pete.
The woman that’d been hounding my every step since the day she was born. From the moment we first comforted each other in the hospital, to the day that I left her to follow her dreams, I knew that she was my one.
Through marriage, divorce, and a prison sentence, I had low expectations when it came to her ever coming around to my way of life. What kind of woman wanted a man that’d been to prison, had a child that disliked him and everything he stood for, and had zero prospects in life?
But then she popped into my life again, and that feeling of suffocation slacked off for the first time since I let her go.
***
The first time I tried to come back to Aodhan, I found him married with a kid on the way.
The second time I tried, he was heading to jail.
As one would say, the third time is the charm, right? Wrong.
The third time, he was divorced, fresh from prison, had a kid, and was again with his ex-wife.
That was the final nail in my coffin. I decided to give up.
I would do anything and everything I could to avoid him. Hiding wasn’t beneath me.
I only wish he’d stuck with my plan, because the moment he sees me again, it’s like he’s seen the light. Avoiding him is impossible when he goes out of his way to insinuate himself into every aspect of my life.
If only life was as perfect as my dreams.

MY REVIEW
Aodhan let Morrigan go once and has regretted it every single day since. He did it for her sake, or so he justified it to himself at the time, and thought this whole time that she had been doing great, living the dream he let her go to pursue. But now he knows differently. Now he knows he has to get his girl back. It's going to be a rough road, though, because Morrigan got over him after one too many times of finding out he had moved on with his life, and she's not up for the thought of having him in her life again, only for him to disappear again.
Morrigan's life hasn't been easy. She has a serious health condition that inhibits life in numerous ways. She has a horrible family. And now her ex, the one who broke her heart more than once, is trying to get her back. This woman isn't about to let him in only for him to smash her heart again. So Aodhan can just go back to not being a part of her life again.
Second chance love stories are probably my favorite of all tropes, especially when they're like this one, with a couple who more than deserve their second chance, and when individually they're strong and lovable characters. Morrigan's health condition is something I've never heard of, and the way it's written made her even more interesting. Aodhan is perfect for her with his protective but gentle nature. There's also an excellent secondary cast that I am fascinated with, especially Morrigan's bestie, Folsom, whose story I can't wait for. Gator Bait MC's stories just keep getting better, I think Morrigan and Aodhan are probably my favorite couple yet.
