I’m the wrong guy in the right place the night I steal Tatum Bradshaw from another man. When she mistakes me for her blind date, I decide she deserves a man who shows up on time … like me. Emmett Riley, Mr. Punctual.
Once I confess my true identity and convince her I’m not a creep—just a thief—it’s only a matter of time before my sexy smile and quick wit claim her heart, her hand in marriage, and the perfect life.
Unfortunately, perfection is an illusion, like the promises of our wedding vows. No one can prepare for the unimaginable—the heartbreaking exception to all the rules in life.
When thirty seconds destroys everything, I have to find a new existence and keep my promise to always love our daughter, Lucy, the most.
For Lucy, I will keep a secret, and I will watch my wife drift into the arms of another man.
Given the chance … can I reclaim my wife and the pieces of our life?

FOR LUCY BY JEWEL E ANN
BOOK REVIEW
EMOTIONAL. RAW. HEARTBREAKING.
I really like this author’s writing. She has written some very interesting and unique books so far. And she is also the author of one of my most beloved romance books – LOOK THE PART.
But I truly believe that FOR LUCY is her most emotional novel so far.
This second chance romance is highly emotional, deep, and even heavy at times. The love story between Emmett and Tatum is beautiful, but also tragic. Tragic in a very human way. One that will touch your hearts, make you think, and even shed a tear or two.
But even knowing all of this, I still would recommend the book, just with a warning that it might have some triggers.
Also the book is written entirely in Emmett’s POV, and I loved it, because Emmett is one incredible hero. His love for Tatum was epic, all consuming, and unshakable. He is the best kind of hero to fall in love with. And the way he loved was incredibly beautiful. Emmett loved without a doubt, and without limit. His love was pure. And he is the one who carried this book, who I fell in love with, who I rooted for.
I’m not a big fan of flashbacks, but they were needed to tell this story. Emmett and Tatum fell in love which passion, and head over heels. It was enchanting, charming and picture perfect, until it wasn’t anymore. The fallout broke my heart. And their journey back to each other was an emotional rollercoaster.
FOR LUCY is the perfect book for anyone looking for an emotional and heart wrenching love story. One that will make you believe in LOVE. But also gives you a healthy dose of reality.

I’m debating whether I want to read this one or not. The fact that it’s Emmett’s POV has me intrigued. It sounds like a love triangle in a way, though. Is it? I’m also not big on flashbacks either. I don’t know… I did love Look the Part and a couple of others of hers I have read, though. It might have to be a maybe someday for me. Great review!
It kinda has a love triangle since she is engaged while they are divorced. But interestingly enough it didn’t bother me as much, I was more interested in his feelings and thoughts. But it’s definitely a very emotional read, and I admit that I would not have read it if it was written by someone else.
Good to know!
