After Anne left him, Frederick spent years loving her, missing her, and hating her until he decided to live his life for himself. He followed his dream and became a firefighter in Culver City. He didn't need romance. He had his work and his friends. When she returns to Los Angeles, Anne and Frederick find themselves in the same wedding. ... Even though he is cold and distant with her, Anne can no longer deny that she never got over him"--Book Synopsis
An instant USA Today bestseller!
In this modern retelling of Jane Austen's PERSUASION, a K-drama actress gets her second chance at love with the man she left to save her family, if only she can work up the courage to risk her heart on forever...one last time. For ten years, Anne Lee told herself that Frederick Nam was her past. To save her father from bankruptcy, she dropped out of UC San Diego to pursue an acting career in Korea. Anne had to stop Frederick from following her and ruining his future. Breaking up with him was the best way she could love him. After Anne left him, Frederick spent years loving her, missing her, and hating her until he decided to live his life for himself. He followed his dream and became a firefighter in Culver City. He didn't need romance. He had his work and his friends. When she returns to Los Angeles, Anne and Frederick find themselves in the same wedding--she as her cousin's bridesmaid and he as his friend's groomsman. Even though he is cold and distant with her, Anne can no longer deny that she never got over him. Not even close. As for Frederick, needing to take care of Anne is a habit he can't seem to kick, but that doesn't mean he has to forgive her.Review Quotes
"Jayci Lee's Give Me a Reason is a second-chance romance that hits like a gut punch wrapped in a love letter. Anne and Frederick are fire and ash--twin heartbreaks that smolder ten years later with breathtaking heat. It's a love story that dares to ask what happens after the credits roll, and what it means to fight for the one who once walked away. Tender, aching, and brave--this book gave me all the reasons to believe in love again."
--Nikki Payne, author of Pride and Protest
"Endearing and enjoyable. This modern retelling of Jane Austen's novel Persuasion was lovely. A second chance romance that makes you believe in true love." --Tombolo Books "The longing. The pining. This second chance romance was such a swoony read." --Belmont Books "[A] swoony and sweet second-chance romance." --Northshire
