Book Blurb:

In a split-second, a car crash killed almost everything between them. Ten years later, can one accidental ride fix tattered spirits, uncertain futures, and broken hearts?
Lily Grantham has always done what she’s been told. The daughter of a senator, she grew up as the good girl of Fawn Hill, and carried that torch right on through to adulthood. Her only wild streak? Bowen Nash. She loved that boy since the day they laid eyes on each other, and it nearly ended them both. A decade later, and Lily still can’t move on. Even if Bowen has made it clear he doesn’t love her anymore. Bowen Nash never wanted the life he’s trapped in. Destined for baseball fame and the love of his high-school sweetheart, that existence vanished in the flip of an old pickup. Now, he’s stuck in the town that produced his worst nightmare. Pretending to hate Lily Grantham guts him day in and day out. But to protect her from the ultimate secret, it’s necessary to break his own heart each time they pass on the street. They’ve been fighting fate for as long as it’s been chasing them. And now, time is up.

Review:
I have been a huge fan of Carrie Aarons since reading The Tenth Girl. Her writing is so engaging, her characters so loveable and the story-lines absolutely addicting. Forgiven was no different. I was hooked from the very first page and could hardly put it down. It was such a refreshing and delightful treat!

Lily and Bowen were high school sweethearts, but that ended abruptly due to the aftermath of a tragic accident. It's been ten long years of little to no contact with no closure in sight. Now due to Presley and Keaton's wedding they are forced together as the maid of honor and best man. The sexual tension and longing between them was so palpable and heartbreaking to watch. Aarons takes us on an emotional journey with this one as we watch the events of the past unfold. Secrets are revealed. Lies and truths are uncovered. Will their love be strong enough to survive it all?

I wasn't a big fan of Bowen after reading Fleeting. I couldn't fathom how he could be so harsh towards Lily when she was supposed to be the love of his life. It frustrated me to no end, but he really redeemed himself in Forgiven. He finally opens up to her and we get to see a whole new side of him. He truly has a heart of gold and his love for Lily was so sweet. I was rooting for these two lovebirds all the way to the end.

All in all, I found Forgiven to be wonderfully written. Despite the emotional punches, it was a quick and easy read. I absolutely fell head over heels for Lily and Bowen, and I know the readers will too. This is a sweet second chance romance that you will not want to miss. ♥
