Pepper
The best part of a happy ending… finding out it’s actually just the beginning. Having someone promise to be by your side, to chase dreams with, whisper troubles to, it’s more than I could have imagined.
But after three seasons of Jace playing pro ball in Ohio, three long seasons, with him on the road, and me training all over the world, I’m questioning if we can really have it all. Harsh criticism of our relationship is all too familiar and uncovers old wounds. I only ever wanted to run and to be with Jace, and finding the perfect balance proves to be my greatest trial yet.
We vowed not to let our love deter each other’s athletic goals, but I miss him. I miss us.
Jace
The demands of our careers have us running in opposite directions, when we should be putting down roots, together. But escalating fame and an overbearing agent have me fumbling everything I hold dear, including Pepper.
After years of dedication and sacrifice, I’m finally in a position to trade to my hometown team. Moving back to Colorado could be the answer to all our problems, but just when I think we’re finally on the right track, we’re sacked with news that turns everything upside down. News that rattles me and sends Pepper into a tailspin. It’s time for me to remind the girl that I fell in love with how to fight.
Until she’s ready, I’ll fight hard enough for the both of us. For better or for worse.
I can say with absolute certainty that I never thought this book would release but when Ali posted about this in her Facebook group, I may have screamed out loud because I love Pepper and Jace so freaking much.
I really loved to be back in the world of Pepper and Jace, to see how things have been since the end of Pepped Up Forever, though this book was not as easy to read as the other ones, there is some sensitive matter, but it does show how strong Pepper and Jace have been and will likely always be, at least in their world. Pepper and Jace are grown up, they’re 24 and 25 now, college is over and they’re married, this is when things become more complicated.
Ali Dean, you did a wonderful job on making me and many other people fall in love with these characters, I thoroughly enjoyed all six of their books, drama, tears, all of it and I was very happy with the final conclusion of their story.
