That’s the Way I Loved YouAuthor: Carrie AaronsGenre: Contemporary RomanceDate: May 14, 2020
Savannah
This town ain't big enough for the two of us.
Which is why I left.
I was determined never to return to Hale, Texas. But when my new life in the Big Apple throws me a curve ball, I have to go back to tie up loose ends. One of those being him.
Jason Whitney was my first everything. Kiss, love, epic heartbreak. He shattered my world once upon a time, and apparently, he’s not done yet.
With old demons lurking around every corner, hightailing it out of my hometown is at the top of my list. Complete my unfinished business, and I get to leave any memory of my country existence behind.
Only, with each day I spend in it, with each moment I spend with him, I’m turning back into the girl who laid in the tall grass and swam in the creek all those years ago.
And I’m not sure that who I was is ready to let me go again.
Jason
We drew a line down the middle, and neither of us has crossed it.
That is, until Savannah Reese blew back into our hometown.
The day my high school sweetheart left, she took my whole heart with her. We promised each other forever, made plans that only teenagers could believe in, and crashed and burned on the grandest of scales.
When Savannah last saw me, I was a disgraced high school athlete. All washed up, I took it out on the only person who loved me. Then her world really fell apart, and I was too selfish to care.
Now she’s back, ready to sell the only remaining thing tying us to each other. I’ve been breaking my back for the last ten years not to think about her, not to be reminded of the love we shared.
But now that she’s right here, it’s impossible to forget how we used to be. Or let go of what we still are.

| I LOVED this book! Savannah & Jason were such amazingly real characters. Sometimes that can be off putting when I'm reading, but I loved that watching these two heal and find their way back together was just so heartwarming! I seriously loved Jason. The way he loved Savannah.....it was just so beautiful. He is seriously one of my favorite heroes. Watching Savannah leave her city self behind and open her arms to her old self was maybe my favorite part of the whole book. Carrie just has a way with her words that from the first page draws me in and keeps in place until I can get to the end. She's a guaranteed one click author for me & I have yet to be disappointed! |
