“Sometimes in order to put ourselves first, we must be willing to give someone else a second chance.”

Clay Johnson

Let me tell you about life-changing moments. The catalyst for mine was standing on a street in New York City, watching the girl I was falling for jump into the arms of another man. Did she know I was there? No. At first I was shocked, then I was angry, for months. Because of this, I finally said, “No more.” No more being second place in my band, with my family, with my friends, or with the women I date. I’ve had enough, and I deserve better. I deserve to be first. The only problem is I can’t escape the girl or her bubbly personality. She’s everywhere I don’t want her to be and trying her best to work her way back into my good graces, which I refuse to allow. I made that mistake once, and I’m never going there again. Ever.

Emma White

I’ve always believed my loyalty to those I love is one of my greatest strengths. If I say I’m in, I’m in and will go down with a sinking ship. Unfortunately, over the last year, I wasn’t just sinking, I was drowning, drowning in a life I had committed to but no longer wanted. Instead, I dreamed of Clay. Clay with his arms that knew just how to hold me, his lips that instantly ignited swarms of butterflies when they touched mine, and eyes that always spoke volumes whenever they were aimed my way. The problem is, he’s made it clear he wants nothing to do with me. I don’t blame him, but I won’t be deterred. The heart wants what the heart wants, and mine wants him. I’ll do whatever it takes. He’s worth it. I’m worth it. I just need him to give me a second chance to prove it.

*****5 Absolutely Amazing Stars*****

They say good things come to those who wait, and boy is that true. I have been waiting 8 years for this book. 8 years longing for Clay & Emma. 8 years desperate wanting more of this world. I have waited for Kathryn Andrews to bring us back to this beautiful world that I have always wanted more of. I have waited and hoped that she would bring us back to this small town full of incredible and dynamic characters that I have loved and rooted for from the start. I have waited and dreamed of what Clay and Emma’s story might entail after getting a sneak peek of them in the first book in this series. I have waited and wanted this book, this story, and this world fiercely, and let me tell y’all…it was well worth the wait.

I would gladly wait another 8 years to get such an amazing story of second chances, music, longing and heart, and so much love and friendship.

Kathryn Andrews completely delivered in White Horizons. She left her heart and soul on the pages of this book and it shows with Clay and Emma and everything they so authentically give you. The music those two create, the magic that exists between them, and the beauty of the two of them and their hearts is utterly incredible and unforgettable.

Trust me when I say that they are worth the wait.

They are worth the longing and angst that exists between them as they reconnect after things went so wrong the first time they were together. They are worth every bit of heartbreak and hurt that exists for them as they try to put themselves and each other back together again. They are worth every bit of hard work and fight these two have as they realize that there is still something beyond worth fighting for between them. They are worth every bit of fire and attraction that exists between them that pulls them together like two strong as hell magnets every time they even think about one another. They are worth every hurdle and step of their second chance at being together and seeing what could be between them. They are worth all of the feelings and heart and love that is right on the surface just waiting for the chance to blossom with the two of them.

They are worth everything.

Clay and Emma are the best. Truly. They are the epitome of the beauty that exists in second chances. They show through every page of their story that they are not only worth it, but that they are so meant to be. They show the world, but more importantly each other, that they may have made mistakes with their relationship in the past, but that they are both committed to showing up for one another and fixing what went wrong because they know there is something there. They know that they can’t stop thinking about one another. They know that their love and what it could bring between them is beautiful and scary and heartfelt and just what they both might need. They know that even after a rocky start and a lot of hurdles thrown their way, they have to find a way to make it work because they are meant to be.

Simply put, Clay and Emma’s story in White Horizons is what the best second chance romances are made of. The longing, the angst, the hurt and feels, the hard fought road back to one another, the fiery connection and pull, the heart and love, coupled with the rightness of these two shows on every page how right they truly are for one another. You will feel that and believe in that through every single word of this book.

Trust me when I say that you will need it all with Clay and Emma, and the way that Kathryn Andrews brings it all to life is truly amazing. Her words give life and heart and vibrancy to every part of these two and every part of what they share. That makes this story so authentic, so compelling, and so beautiful. She just makes everything between them feel so real, so special, and so beautiful. She infuses so much heart into every second with Clay, Emma, and all of the other incredible characters of this world and it makes for one of the best books I have read this year that you feel every breath of.

Like I said at the start of this review, I have been in love with this world of characters for over 8 years. I really can’t say enough how happy it made me to be back with them all. It felt like coming home, back to a place where I truly never want to leave. There is just something special about the Horizons Valley and the people in it. This world has such great dynamic characters that I love with my whole heart. The way they’re all connected, the way they all love and live music, and the way they are all there for one another is truly the best. I can’t wait for all of the stories from this world because I need them all. As soon as humanly possible.

Kathryn Andrews truly outdid herself in White Horizons. She created and delivered an amazing, all-feeling, and unforgettable second chance love story between two characters who are so meant to be. She created a story that made me laugh, made me feel it all, made me blush, made me cry, and that made me believe in the true reconnection of two hearts and souls that complete one another.

Her words brought everything with Clay and Emma to life in a way that I know I won’t soon forget. She not only had me believing in them and their second chance at love with my whole heart, she had me knowing that those two could and would find their way no matter what. She had me knowing that the power and connection and tenacity of those two was on a whole different level, and that’s just part of what made them so special. She also had me wanting and needing those two to find their way something fierce because there was just something so inherently beautiful and right about them and their connection. From the very first page of this book I needed it all with Clay and Emma, and Kathryn Andrews delivered that in spades.

She delivered it all in White Horizons.

If you love a good love story, if you love a story with music, if you love a story with second chances, if you love a story with a ton of heart, feels, and connection, if you love a small town romance with so many unforgettable characters, and if you love a story of two people fighting like hell to find their way, you will LOVE this book. If you just love a damn good love story, you will love this book. If you love a story that makes you feel it all and believe in the power and possibilities of one more chance, then you will love this book with your whole heart.

I promise you that.

Clay and Emma will steal your heart and have you believing in the two of them and all that could be between them from page one…and it just gets better and better from there. Trust me. Those two are ready to wow you with their hearts, their vibrancy, their music, their moments, and their love in this book. They are ready to show you that this time they will find their way and that this time they will make it work, even if they have a few hurdles along the way. They are ready to show you that their connection and pull to one another cannot be fought or denied, and that they will do whatever it takes to show you and each other that this is it, that this is their moment, and that they are endgame.

You will love every second, word, and page with these two. I finished their story weeks again and I still can’t stop thinking about them and all they gave me with their story. They are just that good, that memorable, and that incredible and beautiful together. Their story was beyond worth the wait and I’m just so glad Kathryn Andrews gave us Clay and Emma. They truly were the best and I cannot wait for the next time I’m in Horizons Valley because I want everything from this world and these characters!!

This series is one of my faves for a reason, and White Horizons was the perfect addition to it. It adds another layer of love to a world that I already can’t get enough of and it gives you two characters who are ready to show you that second chances are not only real, but they’re worth believing in and rooting for. Clay and Emma leave their hearts and souls on the pages of this book as they find their way back to each other and it is beautiful and incredible and amazing.

It’s just everything. Just like the two of them.

And they were well worth the wait.
