About this ebook

From the USA Today bestselling author of Fisher's Light comes a "heartbreaking and hopeful" (AL Jackson) standalone romance about first love and second chances.

How much can a man take before he breaks?
1,843 days. That's how long I survived in that hellhole. They tried to break me, but I resisted. And I owe it all to the memory of warm summer nights, the scent of peaches, and the one woman who loved me more than I ever deserved to be loved. Now, I'll do anything to get back to her.

Only Shelby Eubanks isn't the girl I left behind all those years ago. She's someone else, a stranger. My Shelby-my little green-eyed firecracker-would never give up her dreams, would never disappear into her mother's ambitions. But I won't give up on her. On us. I may be broken, and scarred, and not the man I used to be, but I will do whatever it takes to remind her of the story of us.

The Story of Us is a love conquers all, second chance romance read. The leads have been through years of torture. There's lots of manipulation from forces outside of their relationship and also some plain ole crappy luck. Although, they have been around the people equivalent of poisonous snakes, both have good hearts. Both are dealing with physical and mental scars and keeping secrets, and they will do anything to protect each other. Eli and Shelby miss the relationship they once had, but they have to get everything out into the open to salvage what they have. This book is an emotional rollercoaster with some unexpected twists.

How can I put into words how this book made me feel? The raw emotion I experienced reading Eli and Shelby's story was heartbreaking. Ms. Sivec gutted me from page 11 until the last page. How was Eli able to survive all that he endured? How was Shelby able to continue to live without him? The Story of Us was amazing! Ms. Sivec's ability to make the reader climb into the book and feel every emotion that the characters experience is a prime example of excellent writing. Honestly, my review of this book is 10 stars! This is a must have! Thank you Ms. Sivec for giving us another powerful, wonderful story!
