About this listen
What happens when a free-spirited artist from big-city New York collides with an uptight business owner from small-town Ocracoke? Fireworks. The kind neither saw coming.
A single call is all it takes to drive artist Ti Russo into what she does best. Run. But hey, lying low in a beach town for a while isn’t so bad. Thanks to the distraction of playing consultant to a guy she’s determined to crack, she can almost forget about the past stalking her back home. But she never counted on the real danger being a picket-fenced life she has no business falling for.
Focus and self-preservation have gotten single dad Drew Anderson through the last nine years. With the threat of his shop’s foreclosure jeopardizing his daughter’s health care, the last thing he needs is a distracting hippie chick swooping in to shake up what he’s fought to protect. Including himself. The bank’s deadline adds enough pressure without re-risking feelings better left buried.
But as sparks flare and secrets escalate, the race against time propels Ti and Drew into a choice neither’s ready to make: Find the faith to surrender their past or forfeit their only chance to begin again.
Download Begin Again and escape into a sparks-flying, opposites-attract contemporary clean romance full of small-town charm, broken characters, and deep undertones of grace that’ll win your heart.
If you’re a Luke Danes and Lorelai Gilmore fan, you’ll love Drew and Ti’s sparring relationship, along with Begin Again's small-town setting, quirky characters, and family bonds.
Each book in the Home in You series is a standalone and can be enjoyed separately, but I recommend the books in order if you want to follow the overall timeline.

Story
Fashion is a fickle industry, a frightening fact for 24-year-old model Ivy Clark. Ten years in and she’s learned a sacred truth - appearance is everything. Nobody cares about her broken past as long as she looks beautiful for the camera. This is the only life Ivy knows - so when it starts to unravel, she’ll do anything to hold on. Even if that means moving to the quaint island town of Greenbrier, South Carolina, to be the new face of her stepmother’s bridal wear line - an irony too rich for words, since Ivy is far from the pure bride in white.

I wasn’t looking for love. Putting down roots in this small, Southern town was the last thing on my mind. Ben changed all that with his kind nature and gentle ways. Somehow, he painted over the cracks on the canvas of my heart. Never did I feel more alive than with my arms around his waist on the back of his motorcycle and my hair blowing in the wind. But I was a nobody. To his family of wealth and privilege, I wasn’t worthy of him. And they were willing to do whatever it took to drive us apart.

Good series
For him #2, this was not bad. I favor book #1 over this one, but tying characters together and making their own story is great. I especially liked getting to know more about T’s back story.

Life after a Hurtful Past
Ti is running. Always running away but she can't outrun the pain of her past.
Drew is trying to live his late father's life. Be the man his father was and not the man he should be.
Ti is hiding on the island, Drew becomes her project, at least saving his shop does.
Both have to learn to let go in order to move forward.
I loved Grandma Jo and her words of wisdom sprinkled throughout the book in the perfect places.
I loved seeing Ti let her guard down with Drew.
The way the author deals with the tough subjects is very well done. Not overly played but enough for this reader to feel what the characters feel.

Hope from heartache
Complex, multifaceted characters shine through laughter and tears. Sweet Maddie stole my heart with her joy for life. Ti has survived an unfathomable upbringing but remains chained to her past. The many twists and turns in this story kept me guessing. The charm of Ocracoke Island swept me away.
*I received a copy from the author. All opinions are uniquely my own.

Okay story
The story itself was okay, it would have been so much better but the narrator was so boring she made the story boring. It took me a long time to listen to this audio book because the narrator took so long to narrate the book, I kept forcing myself to listen. I wanted to make sure I gave a truthful review so I listened to the whole story.
