For this review, I chose All She Never Wanted by Carolyn LaRoche.
I received a copy of the ebook for a honest review of this book.
One moment changed everything…
Evie Ward had everything she’d ever dreamed of. An action-packed job where no two shifts were ever the same, the best friend a girl could ever want, and a fairy tale wedding just days away. Her life was absolutely perfect. Until one bullet—one horrible choice—left her with a broken heart and shattered dreams. Fleeing the city she loved and a lifetime of memories, Evie took a job in the Outer Banks of North Carolina in the hopes that the ocean air and fresh beaches could somehow restore her soul. Falling in love again wasn’t part of the plan.
Landon Reed was on top of the world. The money, the women, the status—he had it all until one bad decision nearly cost him his life. His father gave him three months to get his act together or be cut off from the family fortune and business. No house, no job and no money. His will and his patience are tested further when his father hires a nurse to whip him into shape. She may be little but she's mean and it looks like Landon has finally met his match.
With her shattered heart and his broken spirit, the road to recovery will be long. Can they help each other heal or will their fractured pasts be too much to overcome?

This book pulled at every one of my emotions. When I started reading it, I was sitting in the ER with my son waiting for him to be seen by the doctor in the room. Here I sit reading that Evie was working in an ER as a nurse and her fiancé was a NYPD police officer. Having him get killed like that in front of her was wow! For me, I think I would have looked for a job like this way before Evie did. Landon has dealt with a bad year, too. I think they were both in the right place at the right moment type of thing.
This was my first book by this author and won't be my last.
