Life is a mixed bag for Piper Calloway. On the one hand, she’s a twenty-nine-year-old VP at her dad’s multibillion-dollar real estate development firm, and living the high single life with her two best friends in a swanky downtown penthouse. On the other hand, she’s considered a pair of sexy legs in a male-dominated world and constantly has to prove her worth. Plus, she’s stuck seeing her narcissistic ex-fiancé—a fellow VP—on the other side of her glass office wall every day. Things get exponentially more complicated for Piper when she runs into Kyle Miller—the handsome new security guard at Calloway Group Industries, and coincidentally the first love of her life. The guy she hasn’t seen or heard from since they were summer camp counsellors together. The guy from the wrong side of the tracks. The guy who apparently doesn’t even remember her name. Piper may be a high-powered businesswoman now, but she soon realizes that her schoolgirl crush is not only alive but stronger than ever, and crippling her concentration. What’s more, despite Kyle’s distant attitude, she’s convinced their reunion isn’t at all coincidental, and that his feelings for her still run deep. And she’s determined to make him admit to them, no matter the consequences.
MY T H O U G H T S :
Say You Still Love Me was one of those novels that kept me content, easily finishing the story in just one evening. I love a second chance romance, and Tucker built a strong connection between her two main characters and she presented a love that I could believe in. The story was told from two points in time, "Then" and "Now." We got to see how Piper and Kyle bonded and fell in love as young teens and how that love grew and evolved as they reconnected and fell once again as adults. The romance had a slow burning feel, and there may have been a little too much time spent in the past, but it didn't lag enough to lessen my interest. Piper and Kyle had polar opposite upbringings and family lives, and they had more than one obstacle put in their path, but they fought to overcome and I rooted for their love to win out in the end. This is the second story that I have read and enjoyed by K. A. Tucker, and I am very much looking forward to reading more of her work in the future. Say You Still Love Me was a sweet and romantic read with a little hint of angst. I enjoyed the time spent lost between the pages of the story.
