Best friends. Missed chances. One last shot at forever.
Esther Adams has spent years ignoring her heart — and Fred Bennett has spent just as long hiding his.
Fred’s spent years loving Esther from the sidelines, content to be her friend, her worship team partner, her safe place. He’s tried moving on, but no one has ever taken her place in his heart.
For six years, Esther’s been pretending that she’s over Fred. She had her chance and squandered it. But when she starts dating the single father of a former student, she comes to realize one thing: loving someone new, means losing Fred.
As Fred begins pulling back, ready to walk away from their friendship if it means giving her a real chance at happiness – even if it breaks him – Esther must face the truth that some friendships aren’t meant to fade. Some are meant to turn into forever.
Annilee Nelson writes faith-filled sweet romances from a cozy corner in the living room of her just-outside-of-Halfax-Nova-Scotia home. She is a life-long lover of stories with her favorite sorts being those that include families, groups of friends, and, of course, romance. Like Mrs. Bennett in the Hatfield Falls series, Annilee loves Jane Austen, though not enough to name her children after Miss Austen’s characters.View all by Annilee Nelson
