Not Just My Heart: A Second Chance Steamy Scottish Contemporary Romance Kindle Edition

3.5 out of 5 stars 12 ratings

He’s desperate to win her back. She won’t be hurt again. But will family be key to their happily ever after?

Rory knew the second he set eyes on Lacey again that he'd made a terrible mistake. Six years ago he'd broken up with her but now he wants her back. And she's open to the idea. He still has charm and wit on his side. And from what he can tell, she still likes his big ... ego. He's a man now but can he also convince those closest to her that he's changed?

When Lacey took Rory into her heart six years ago, she gave him her all, including a place in her family. When he threw her away, he threw them away too. She may be able to forgive him and put the past behind her, but her mum, dad, and brother will be a tougher sell. Will she ignore those she loves for a man who has already broken her heart once?

Set in the Scottish city of Glasgow and travelling up into the beautiful areas of Loch Lomond and Glencoe, Not Just My Heart is a heart-warming, sexy tale of two souls finding their way back to each other and realising that it’s not just their hearts that were involved in their break-up.

Em was born and brought up in the Central Belt of Scotland and still lives there. She was told as a child she had an overactive imagination--as if that is a bad thing. She's traded her dreams of owning her own island, just like George in the Famous Five to hoping to meet her own Mr Darcy one day. But her imagination remains the same.

    This is Rory and Lacey’s story and they were soulmates until Rory walked away leaving a heartbroken Lacey behind. Now 6-years later they meet up again, and the chemistry is still sizzling, but Lacey is no pushover, she is going to make Rory work for her forgiveness and challenges him at every turn. Can Rory convince Lacey to take a 2nd chance of them having a relationship? This is a beautifully written tale which is an emotional roller coaster throughout, as well as a heartfelt poignant love story, which is filled with heartbreak, witty banter, and is a fun, steamy, and humorous story. This talented author has done an amazing job in penning this tale, and I highly recommend for all readers.

    This is a drama filled storyline. It has all kinds of ups and downs in this second chance romance. The stage is set in Scotland (eek on my bucket list to visit) and it has the slang to go along with it. Even if I wasn’t familiar with a word, I still loved it. Hee hee.

    Lacey and Rory have a bit of a messy, heartbreaking past. Rory made the mistake of being young and dumb, breaking not only Lacey’s heart but her family’s as well. Yikes.

    I actually wind up loving Rory. For the the first part of the story, he owned up to his mistakes. I love that he is a teacher. I was a little ticked when he asked why Lacey didn’t fight for him. WHAT?! Yes I realize he had childhood trauma but don’t insinuate it was on her.

    Lacey was a bit all over the place at times probably cause she was fighting her feelings. Eek. YOUNG TRUE LOVE is a powerful thing.

    Overall this is a good story and I give it a solid 3.5 stars. Happy Reading Everyone! XOXO

    This was a good book. I liked how it went back to the past and showed glimpses of Lacey and Rory's life. And I know that us women do stupid things when it comes to men and Rory was really trying to win her back. But I really thought she just gave in way to easily after the time that had elapsed. And I know they used the excuse they were young at the time of the break-up but your not now. Overall tho I did enjoy the book and it had a good feeling to it. And shows that love can prevail. I would recommend it for sure.- By Tina

    The author gave us a great second chance storyline that is full of heat. Rory and Lacey were young lovers for years, sharing a lot of firsts. Everyone thought they would be together for life. But Rory made the biggest mistake of his life and let her go. Being young and stupid he “thought” he wanted the single life he never had. It’s now 6 years later, he’s a teacher and Lacey is a vet. Both have moved on or so they think. But when they accidentally run into each other at a local bar, old sparks fly. But Lacey has no desire to relive all the heartbreak that comes with Rory. But Rory is determined to win her back.
    This is a great story about 2nd chances, family, friends and romance. I highly recommend it.

    I loved this story of Rory and Lacey, they are each other's soulmates until Rory walks away. Fast forward 6 years when they meet again through mutual friends and needless to say it does not go smoothly.
    Since their best friends are getting married they decide to get along for the wedding. Of course the chemistry is still heavy between them, but Lacey is protecting her heart this time around.
    This book is well written second chance story that was funny and emotional. Thanks to my both my parents being from Glasgow I loved the city references and the slag!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Fab Scottish read full of banter and passion!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 8, 2020
    This was my first read by this author but it drew me in due to the fact its set in Scotland and im Scottish so I was intrigued to see what it was like.
    I can officially say I read this book in one day... practically in one sitting actually as its an easy to fall into story and kept me flipping those pages with all the passion and hilarity that was Rory and Lacey!!
    Set as a second chance romance the story gives you a background of these guys before it all went wrong and when they meet again... and its not all plain sailing thats for sure.
    Love the relationship not only between Lacey and Rory but between their friends and between Lacey and Jonah too! Nothing better than banter/laughter between close friends.
    I would definitely recommend this book to others.. its fab..its fun and its full of heat.
    Well done Em Taylor I loved every word.
