Emelyn LaClaire was honored to be the Maid of Honor in her best friend’s wedding, but it came with a catch. She has to walk down the aisle with her ex fiancé, Lawson McCoy. He's not just the Best Man; he's also her best friend’s brother, and she’s loved him since she was eight years old.
Emelyn has avoided any kind of contact with Lawson since the day everything fell apart during her sophomore year at the University of Alabama. Now, after four years of avoiding him, she's not just seeing him, she also has to walk down the aisle with him - the one man she dreamt of marrying almost all her life...
Lawson McCoy only has a single regret, and it's throwing away the one thing that was good in his life. When his sister, Delilah, and her fiancé, Grayson, asked him to be the Best Man, it came with a stipulation. Do not in any way mess up their wedding. That’s easier said than done, especially when the one girl who would rather stick hot pokers in her eyes than look at him will be walking down the aisle beside him....
This is a second chance romance that is the perfect blend of ANGST-FILLED, EMOTIONAL & MELT YOUR KINDLE HOTTT MOMENTS!!!!
***This is a complete story! No Cliffhanger!***

For me, Danielle Jamie is THAT author….You know the one right?
You don’t need to read the synopsis to know you will love it, the one who never tells a story that will disappoint, No matter what your doing or what your reading they all cease to exist the minute you know its on you kindle….Yeah, THAT one!!!
Once again, I wasn’t left disappointed…Mine Would Be You hit my kindle at 2.33 pm and I had devoured it by 5.47pm and WOW, Danielle blew me away with yet again another fantastic story. Within the first chapter, I was hooked and heartbroken all at the same time. To say Lawson and Emely's story made me feel every emotion going is an understatement. I felt their loss, anger, hurt, guilt and hate but most of all throughout the whole book no matter what happened I felt their love for one another.
WARNING….STOCK UP ON YOUR TISSUES, TURN YOUR PHONE OFF, FIND A QUIET SPOT AND BRING YOUR ALCOHOL!!!
When 8-year-old Emelyn moved to a new town she didn’t expect to find new friends…but not only did she find a friend she fell in love at first sight with the cute older boy next door.
Lawson felt exactly the same….she was the one who would one day be his wife.
“I knew the second I met her that she was the girl I wanted to spend my life with. Sure, I was only ten, and she was eight, but I knew the moment I saw her running up to my sister and me, who were sitting on our porch watching them move in, that love at first sight existed” ~Lawson
Emelyn’s dreams were ripped from her 4 years ago, everything that she was certain off disappeared in the blink of an eye. After returning home 4 years ago she has had to make the best life for her based on new dream but there is always that one thing missing, the other half of her...Lawson.
“I’ve tried to move on. I’ve dated, met some amazing men, but none of them have clicked the way I did with Lawson. Our Love was instant, all consuming, and what I thought would be the greatest love story of all time” Emelyn
Lawson has carried around his guilt and regret for the past 4 years but he has never stopped loving Emelyn (of that you can be sure). Lawson has stayed away but with his sister Delilah’s wedding 2 weeks away he has to return home. Lawson is best man and with Delilah being best friends with Emelyn it’s going to be hard to stay away since she is the Maid of Honor.
Emelyn knows she will see him again and she tries to convince her best friend Delilah and herself it wont effect her, she can do this...its only 2 weeks. All she has to do is walk down the isle with him and dance at the reception this will be easy! That is until Lawson rides into town on his Harley and she sees him….How wrong was she?
“Lawson McCoy is my ultimate weakness” Emelyn
They both know that the only way they can get thru the next 2 weeks is to talk to one another and let go of the hurt and everything that has happened in the past and move forward, Lawson can go back to his life and Emelyn back to hers…Cue the emotional rollercoaster!!!
“Loving you is both exhilarating and crippling” Lawson
Neither one have been living they have just been existing but how can they get the closure they both need, How do you get over your one true love (they have both been trying to do this for the past 4 years).
It’s not a case of forgive and forget…it’s a case of embrace and remember.
Well done and a massive THANK YOU to Danielle. Such a beautiful, heartfelt emotional second chance love story that has it all. Mine Would Be You will definitely give all other books in this genre a run for its money.
Coming Soon on iTunes
I am a hot mess. I am a smoldering, frustrated mess, because just his damn eyes are setting my body on fire. I swear I can feel his eyes on me as if they're caressing my body as they slide up and down my stumbling, blushing, hot mess self as he takes me in.
It’s been way too long since I’ve had a good and proper fuck.
Yes, I’m supposed to be a sweet southern belle, but it’s totally possible to be sweet and slightly naughty all at the same time.
I love sex…especially Lawson sex. No one has come even close to doing to my body what this man has done to me probably a million times before we broke up.
“Woah.” Wrapping his arms around me, he holds me against him, stopping me from falling flat on my face and completely embarrassing myself.
“Oh my gosh, I’m sorry.” I can only imagine how red my cheeks are right now. My hands are flush against his chest and I find myself loving the feeling of his body beneath them. I inhale deeply and breathe him in.
God, he smells amazing.
Laughing, he holds me tighter, making it clear he isn’t letting me go yet. He brings his mouth down to my ear and the feeling of his breath against my skin makes my body become blanketed in goose bumps. “No need to be sorry. I’ll gladly catch you anytime you fall.”
Ahh, hell.
My heart jumps in my damn chest as I imagine a little mini sledgehammer smashing away a tiny piece of the wall that’s been guarding my heart for the last four years.
