“Octavia pens a great tale."--The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers
The road to romance can be filled with second thoughts and second guesses, and in Essence® bestselling author Grace Octavia's captivating novel, one woman can't quite make peace with her choices...
Atlanta celebrity wedding planner Rachel Winslow has it all—except what she wants most: true love. Her friends are convinced that her college ex-turned-best friend, Ian, is her Mr. Right—even though he’s in a relationship. And when Ian confides to Rachel that he plans to propose, she suddenly wonders if she's letting her best chance at happiness slip through her fingers. In a panic, Rachel becomes determined to win Ian back. But her plan backfires in ways she couldn't have imagined…
Heartbroken, Rachel finds herself making a series of disastrous decisions—including an affair that leaves everything she values most hanging in the balance. To get her life back on track, Rachel will have to let go of the illusions of the past—and her fears about the future.
