Fresh out of an abusive relationship, Tatum packs up and goes to live closer to her brother, and to make a fresh start. When Parker, the biggest regret of her life, comes back around, she’s immediately divided between giving their relationship another try and protecting her heart.

Parker hasn't been able to get Tatum off his mind since the night he walked out of her life. Eight years of one night
stands and many sleepless nights, the pain of losing her has virtually faded. When he finds out she is moving to town all the emotions from the past come crashing back into his heart. Reluctant at first, he sets his sights on making it work out with the only woman he has ever loved.

Just when Tatum is settling into her new life and relationship her ex-boyfriend becomes obsessed with getting her back, threatening everything they hold dear. Will Tatum and Parker’s love be strong enough to get them through their worst battle yet or will their worlds come crashing down once again?

Beth’s Review: 

Parker and Tatum was the “It” couple until they were not.   But their soul’s didn’t get the message. A piece of them was always missing, their other half.  The journey ended because of long distance, careers and fear.  All that changed when when Tatum moved to be closer to her brother and ultimately Parker.
Tatum was getting out of an abusive and toxic relationship, she then moves to be closer to her brother. And closer to Parker.  With not being together for eight years,  they picked up where they left off.  Desire, passion and their chemistry was explosive.  But Parker is trusting his heart again not to be broken.  He is protective of Tatum.  And when  he discovers her past, we get introduced to a new side of him.   Not everything is sunshine and rainbows.  Their relationship is tested once again with a new career opportunity.   Could the past make a reoccurrence?
It Was Always You was a good read.  The characters and supporting ones were written well.  Parker wore his heart on his sleeve, was a stand up guy and was protective.  With the circumstances that Tatum was dealt, she was strong to get out of the abusive relationship with Dean.  For other situations, I felt she needed to rise up and not be stubborn and indecisive.  Overall, I enjoyed it.
