Billy Daley hasn’t been home in years, and he likes it that way. He’s just fine on his own—he has a cash-in-hand job at a scrapyard, a half-feral cat to keep him company, and many miles between him, his hometown and all the baggage that comes with it.
Until the job goes sideways. Suddenly he’s back in Rushmere, working for none other than his brother’s best friend—a man whose kiss Billy can’t seem to forget.
Gus Amour’s memories of Billy Daley are all spiky edges, lips crushed against lips and a reckless streak that always ended in trouble. But when Billy needs a place to stay, Gus steps in. He’d do anything for the Daley family, including living, and working, side by side with a man who makes his heart beat too fast and his blood run too hot—two things he’s been running from for years.
It doesn’t take long before their easy banter, lingering touches and heated glances become a temptation too hard to resist. But falling into bed and falling in love are two different things, and love has never come easy to either Billy or Gus. Only when fate threatens to steal away their opportunity for a second chance will they realize they don’t need easy.
They just need each other.

Book Review
Unforgotten by Garrett Leigh is the second book in an interconnected series. This book is a sweet friends-to-lovers romance despite all the angst.
Both main characters have dealt with some rough things in their lives. When one of the characters return, they end up living in close proximity. While their coping mechanism is different, they both embark on a healing journey where love soothes invisible wounds and pushes them out of their comfort zone to become a better version of themselves.
I truly enjoyed this book much better than the first book Forgiven, mostly because each character had a genuine will to grow. Their attraction slowly matures into this beautiful relationship based on trust and love rather than lust. It’s a slow burn that I truly enjoyed reading.
