To stay sane, Andie Tilly must keep her mind on her work. Her job as a pediatric occupational therapist is the perfect distraction from the unspeakable tragedy she experienced as a child. But when she meets alternative-energy magnate Rhys Griffiths and his autistic toddler, Will, she quickly realizes her heart will never be the same. Especially when her name becomes Will’s first word.

After accepting a position as a live-in therapist for Will, Andie steels herself against the appeal of the disconcertingly attractive – and attracted – Rhys. But their chemistry can no longer be denied, and their heated affair seems destined for happily ever after. A destiny Andie’s terrified to embrace.

When Andie’s guilt, Rhys’s awkwardness, and the abrupt appearance of an erratic ex threaten to dismantle their delicately blooming relationship, they must decide if love is worth the challenge. Can Andie and Rhys find their way back to each other? Or will the demons of the past simply prove too strong?

  1. Sweet and vivid Isley Robson has woven a rich and colorful real-life story. Her development of her characters is impressive and full, I felt like I knew them intimately and loved how descriptive she was in her writing of their thoughts. This sweet story captivated me and I had a hard time putting it down to do such ordinary things as laundry and dishes. Her vocabulary was a bit daunting- I had to look up the definition of several words- but impressive nonetheless. 

  2. Wow!! What a beautifully written, compelling novel!! Isley Robson deals with autism with great sensitivity as well as providing us with an amazing love story. Hard to put this book down. This is a must read!!

  3. Truly special… Oh Wow I was so lucky to get a copy of this incredible new authors’ debut in return for an honest review and I so enjoyed it. I’m So Glad it’s part of the Kindle First program, as I highly recommend it… Why? Because the writing is flawless, the characters are well described and feel real, and the story kept me swiping madly.
