Con! In this book, we follow Con's story as he reunites with the love of his life. He fell in love with Willow back when they were still teenagers. Still, they went through some seriously rough moments regarding his brother's death and when she became pregnant. They didn't handle that situation very well at all, and they split up. Will ends up leaving. She disappears from their lives, and he only goes looking for her after one of the brothers sees her as one of the spokespersons for a domestic violence event. Once they reunite, things get crazy, and I love that Willow doesn't just accept him with open arms. He has to work for forgiveness, and the only way that they even got her to go home with Con was after her police friend pointed out that she was in danger and needed to get protection for her son at the least because there's nothing she won't do her for her son. The book follows their story while they are trying to protect her and her son. They also work through many issues because they have a ton of baggage! Then things hit the fan when Con's mental problems come out. He has been struggling hard, and in this book, he gets some serious help. I love how his whole family ends up being there for him. This was so much fun, and I loved it even more than the first one.
