Changing the Past by Shawna Delacorte

Sponsored

Ten years ago, Blaine betrayed Meg's trust, her love, and broke her heart--now he's desperate to win back the only woman he ever loved.

Successful freelance photojournalist Meg Wainwright is offered the assignment of her dreams—photographing and writing a new line of travel books for a publisher in the UK. But when she arrives, she learns she’ll be working for the man who walked out on her ten years ago without an explanation and left her heartbroken.

Blaine Reeves regrets leaving the only woman he ever loved. Luring her to London without revealing his involvement might not be his best plan. He can only hope it’s not too late to change the past.

Reviews

5+ star review from NNLight’s Book Heaven:
“What stood out to me the most is the writing. This is my first time reading Shawna Delacorte and I am impressed. Her ability to weave emotion, tension, character growth and romance into the story while transporting the reader is no small feat. Each scene builds upon the next to create an immersive reading experience. There were times when I read late into the night because I couldn’t put it down.”

“Brilliant from start to finish, Changing the Past is a moving romance worth reading. I can’t wait to read more from this author.”
