Ashley has her life sorted out. After a painful divorce, she has now rebuilt her life as an editor. She is happy with her life—until her ex-husband Andrew walks into it, opening up the deep scars that even time has failed to heal.
He’s gorgeous, funny and as utterly tempting as he was seven years ago. Plus, being the editor for his new book, she cannot avoid him. But Andrew has his own issues lingering from the past.
Bound together by work, every breath they take draws them closer, into the same hopeless, passionate love that they once shared...

AUTHOR INTERVIEW
1. If you could work with any other
author, who would it be and why?
A-There are so many talented authors out there.
I'd be lucky to work with any of them. With collaboration, I think
it's more important to share a natural chemistry and similar writing
style with the other person than it is to admire their work. But I
think I'd love to work with Courtney Milan, even though I don't write
historical romances, because she's my author of the moment.
2. What would be a typical working day
for you? When and where do you write?
A-I write in my room, from noon till about three
in the afternoon, then again from nine pm to midnight. These are the
hours when I feel most creative. I'm a routine freak, so I attempt to
stick to this pattern as much as I can, but there are days when the
unexpected happens, so I try to flexible as well.
3. What is the hardest part of the
writing for you?
A-Dealing with the 'bad' days—there are days
when I feel like everything I'm writing is garbage and the story is
going nowhere. But I've come to realize that dealing with self-doubt
is as much as part of a writer's life as writing books.
4. When and why did you first start
writing?
A-I first started writing when I was nine or ten
years old. I used to write poems and short stories back then, some of
which were published in newspapers, magazines etc. My first 'novel'
was written when I was thirteen, but obviously, it wasn't a real
novel. I've been writing pretty much regularly since then, though I
did take a break when I was at university.
5. How did you come up with the idea
for your book?
A-I've wanted to write a second-chances romance
about a divorced couple who get back together for a long time, and
the book grew out of that desire.
6. Are you a big reader? If so, what
are you reading now?
A-I'm a big reader, but I tend to read in bursts.
I'll devour ten to fifteen books in a week or two, then not read
anything for a month. I'm currently reading a few books at
once—Whiskey Beach by Nora Roberts, Once Upon a Marquess and The
Governess Affair by Courtney Milan, Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer, as
well as a few non-fiction books, but I'm not close to finishing any
of them.
7. Do you have any advice for other
aspiring writers?
A-Believe in yourself and write what feels true to
you. Writing is more about discovering yourself than trying to please
others.
