Randy Stroud has spent the past six years living with what he deems the biggest mistake of his life. When he left his high school sweetheart, Kristen Smith, without a fight, Randy knew his life would never be the same. He hasn’t felt complete since that fateful day, and seeing Kristen again solidifies that thought. Randy is now ready to do whatever it takes to regain her love and affection.
Kristen is the owner of a daycare center and is ecstatic over fulfilling one of her dreams. Unexpectedly seeing Randy and his young son helps Kristen discover she’s not “over” Randy, in fact she loves him more than ever.
Randy refuses to let a second opportunity for love to slip through his fingers. Will their romance remain a distant memory or can Kristen and Randy rediscover love?
Stephanie Morris writes about forgiveness, trust, and rediscovering love in Better Late Than Never. The story takes place in a town where few secrets remain such in this small close net community. Randy knew the moment he walked away from Kristen he made a mistake, but pride and fear wouldn’t allow him to ask for a second chance. Facing her was the kick in the pants he needed wake him up. Kristen was so hurt that day that she never moved on. One look in his eyes told Kristen her solution was more of a Band-Aid than a cure. I enjoyed watching this couple come to grips over this past hurts. There were a few slow moments for me in this book, but I understood the author’s need to give sufficient background information. I couldn’t comprehend some of Kristen’s actions when it came to Randy, especially allowing him into her bed with such uncertainty looming in the future. However, I have to admit the intimacy seemed to aid in them growing closer and strengthened their emotional connection. The supporting characters brought spice to this story, and had me hoping to see them again in the near future. If you enjoy stories about the one that got away, then you’ll enjoy Better Late Than Never.
