Synopsis
Following the smash-hit Something Borrowed comes story of betrayal, redemption, and forgiveness
 
Darcy Rhone has always been able to rely on a few things: Her beauty and charm.  Her fiance, Dex. Her lifelong best friend, Rachel.  She never needed anything else. Or so she thinks until Dex calls off their dream wedding and she uncovers the ultimate betrayal. Blaming everyone but herself, Darcy flees to London and attempts to re-create her glamorous life on a new continent. But to her dismay, she discovers that her tried-and-true tricks no longer apply--and that her luck has finally expired. It is only then that she can begin her journey toward redemption, forgiveness, and true love.


My Review
You just can't help it when love finds you. Sometimes it makes you do the right thing, and sometimes it makes you do the wrong things. True love though, seems to find its way to work everything out. 

In this second book, we follow Darcy and her journey on becoming a mother, figuring out her friendships, and really seeing herself for what she is. She's a spoiled, self-centered, shallow girl, but underneath all that she is a wonderful person. She's just letting the wrong side of her shine through. She's always seemed to use her flashy lifestyle to mask what's really going on in her head.

We see her grow, and she becomes a wonderful person. She hasn't ever really been as lucky in love as she's tried to convince her self she has. 

I really enjoyed going on this little journey with Darcy. It was a simple, cute book with a splash of drama. I enjoyed it enough.
