Cade Jennings was always there for me when I needed him—until he wasn’t.

I’d spent my entire life loving my best friend’s older brother. Every single one of my birthday wishes was spent hoping Cade would finally notice me.

And then one day, he did.

But not all love stories have happy endings.

It's been years since I left the small town of Sutten Mountain devastated and heartbroken. I’d used the pain to fuel a bestselling novel that solidified I’d never have to return.

Until tragedy struck, forcing me to face the man who shattered my heart.

I thought I’d be strong enough to see him again. I didn’t expect the angry, broken man staring back at me.

But the more time we spend around each other, the more I see glimpses of the man I fell in love with. His touch still owns me. His kiss still brands me. And even after all this time, the feelings I have for him still consume me.

Cade and I are unfinished business, and this time, he’s not letting me leave until we rewrite our story.

Review

Rewrite Our Story is one of those books that the more I think about it, the more I wonder if I did enjoy it. For the beginning, I knew this wasn’t going to be my favorite by the author. I had initially tried to read this book in May, but stopped because I couldn’t get into it. Recently, I had to just go for it and focus myself to sit down and read it. Was it painful? No, it caught my attention as I read it.

And at times, I found myself enjoying it. I really enjoyed the flashbacks between Cade and Marigold. At times they were easier to read because the present was just so sad, and they were not on speaking terms. I liked how even since they were children, he had always been someone who she can count on. And I was eager to learn what drifted them apart.

Their big “fight” was something I’m sure a lot of couples had. However, what rubbed me the wrong way was Cade constantly blaming Marigold for how it ended. She showed him and told him how he felt, and he pushed her away. And blamed her for walking away. It irked me, and it made me dislike him several times throughout the story. He does get better towards the end of the book, but it doesn’t completely save the couple for me. In fact, I was much more interested in seeing Cade’s younger sister’s romance play out. Her and her love interest meet in this book and in their few scenes together they completely stole the show. I can’t wait until September to get their book.

Final Thoughts

Rewrite Our Story was fine. I feel that is the only way to describe it with my constant back and forth. With the MMC’s constantly annoying need to blame the FMC for something he did, I think that left the biggest bad taste in my mouth.
