Book synopsis:
Can you ever really outrun your past?
Krissy Mullins, an overworked, obsessive-compulsive publicist has been giving it her best shot for the past ten years. Throwing herself into her work and devoting all her time to her teenage starlet client, Krissy finds little time for anything else. But as fate would have it, her world is turned upside down when she falls in love with laid-back California native, Ben Torres. Unfortunately, her only frame of reference on love and marriage is her parents and they weren’t exactly the poster children for a happy relationship.
As Krissy attempts to navigate the precarious world of love, acceptance, and compromise, her past comes flooding back like she never expected. An ex-boyfriend returns from a life she has tried to forget, stirring up feelings in Krissy she had thought were long gone. Pulled in opposite directions as her past and present collide, she makes a rash decision that will forever change her life.

Review
I’m going to start with saying OHHHH BEN! Okay, now that I have that out you are probably wondering where that came from. We have a little bit of a love triangle here. We have Ben, swoon..... who Krissy spends years with as a friend before she opens up and falls in love. Knowing that she has a past that haunts her she still falls in love. But she is married to her job. This causes an issue, it would for anyone, right? It would for me. Then when the ex walks back in the picture... hello trouble. There was a part of me that was all about working it out.. but let me tell you how my emotions flowed in their relationship. Krissy and her feelings were all over the place, so I was all over the place. The book started with...
Then moved to....
And then I moved on to...

I can't express how awesome this book was. I was sucked right in. I knew I was a goner from Page One. I highly suggest you read this book. But be ready to love to hate the characters. You will pick this up and be all over the place emotionally...right along with Krissy. I give this book 4 hearts.
