All for Me

Forever Mine, Book 2

By: Deborah Garland

Narrated by: Auri Alden, Stephen Borne

I never thought I’d see her again. Considering she left me at the altar...

After five years since the disappearance of my fiancé, I’m still looking over my shoulder. When she shows up back in our small town, I’m shocked, to say the least. But I need answers in order to put the past behind me.

But one kiss changes everything. Just when I’m a heated powder keg ready to blow, Faith announces she’s moving to London. That means she’s off-limits. I survived her leaving me once. I doubt I’ll survive again.

Every attempt to keep distance between us fails when her smile draws me in all over again. Keeping Faith close to me might end in disaster, but I can’t get enough of how she makes me feel.

When the chance to make her mine again is within my reach, will the truth she’s hiding about why she really left ruin any chance we have to make it work this time?

If you love small towns, good cops, and runaway brides with heart-pounding endings, All for Me is the second-chance romance for you.

No cheating. No cliff-hangers. HEA Guaranteed.

Previously published as Must Have Faith. It has been extensively rewritten and is now in first person.

Book 2 - Forever Mine series, can be standalone

This is book 2 in Garland's Forever Mine series and can be read as a standalone. Our main characters in this book are police officer Greg and his runaway fiancé Faith. Childhood sweethearts, these two have a long and detailed past and while there were times, I was yelling at my audio book for Faith to come clean already about why she left him, overall, I very much enjoyed this romance read / listen. I thought our dual narrators, Auri Alden and Stephen Borne were brilliant. Alden's vocals were exactly what I thought Faith would be and Borne's gruff vocals were perfect for the alpha cop that was/is Greg's character. So much hurt these two experienced unintentionally more times than not to overcome and the realization of what priorities come first. A lot of "what-if's" in this book and time and time again it looks as though finally these two will find their HEA only to have another curve ball thrown into the mix. A book of love, devotion, patience and forgiveness that will make you crazy while giving you a satisfying and heartwarming HEA! Sweet, steamy and well written / narrated - I can't wait to see what Garland will give us next!

This book was given to me for free at my request and I voluntarily provided this review.

Great read

The story is a little slow but all and all, I enjoyed it. Auri and Stephen did an awesome job at narrating

Second Chance Romance.

Overall the story and development of the characters were pretty good in this second chance romance. The two characters had known each other for 20 yrs, as long as Faith can remember she has loved Gregory. She tried to win him over when she was 16 but he was 21 yr old cop and turned her down. She continued to pin away for him until the day he finally saw her as a women. they spent 7 years together, until tragic end right before their wedding. Regretting choices she made sent her running, now 5 years later they are back in their small town and reconnecting. Will this runaway bride spill her secrets and have a second chance at love?

The development of this couple was great and seeing glimpses of their past together as they created a future was done well. I am not always a fan of second chance, it can be one of those that are not always done right. This author did a good job. My main issue with this story line is a spoiler and I will put it down below. Only read the spoiler if you want to know! Just myself personally I do not enjoy story lines with this included. I know these are fictional but I see it too much in real life and I just really don't love having it in my books!

The narration was great, they both did a good job at showing emotion and really bring the characters to life.

***SPOILER scroll at your own risk!***

This may be a trigger for some and think it is important to know this book does involve cheating.
