Want You Back: Annabet Albert

Ooof. WANT YOU BACK had me all up in my feels last night. Between the story and the storm, my emotions and anxiety were all over the place. I woke up this morning emotionally hungover. So yeah, I loved WANT YOU BACK. Love the tears if I get an HEA in the end, and we did!!

Two unlikely best friends find their second chance when Maverick returns home to his family ranch and reconnects with the town sheriff, Colt.

This story packs a punch with family trauma, loss, addiction, grief, and leaving your first love behind only to come back 20 years later and find them again.

There were many times during this story when I became a crying mess. Mav & Colt seemed to always find their way through all of it, though. Maybe it's a family trauma thing, but both of these main characters were drowning in family expectations. Mav, to be a carbon copy of his dad and take over the ranch. Colt, to "be the man of the house" and prioritize his mom and siblings over everyone else. A person can't live that way for long. You have to have boundaries.

It's hard knowing the right thing to do. Both mcs struggled with this throughout the story.

These characters weren't perfect by any means. But they had the biggest hearts, and I loved seeing them get their HEA. 

WANT YOU BACK is out May 15th. If you're looking for mature-ish mcs and a ranch style setting packed full of family drama, look no further!
