From USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author Jewel E. Ann comes a novel so heartfelt and real it redefines the meaning of love.
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.

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?

What I thought about For Lucy
Like many of Jewel E. Ann's books, it will be difficult to get too deep into this story without giving away spoilers. so I will leave it at the synopsis -- but do pay attention to the content warning as this story does contain some subject matter that may be upsetting. This is a story of coming back from tragedy.
The story is told from the perspective of Emmett Riley and the details of how he came to be in his situation are revealed through alternating the timeline between the present and the past. He tells a story of falling in love and building a family until one day everything explodes.
I adored Emmett. His heart is clearly on display as he relays the story. His pain is palpable, as is the undying love he has for his family. But love just isn't enough for what they are going through and there's no easy fix. I found that I could relate to Emmett's feelings for his family so well, and even during his moments of justified anger, I could still feel that core strength in his character. He's a very compelling character in this story.
This was a book I stayed up all night reading once I started. I was immediately drawn into this story and loved the way the events are presented. When I got to the end, all I could do was smile. I did love where everyone ended up, especially Emmett and his wife and their need to educate others on the critical thirty seconds that could change so many lives.
For Lucy is billed as a second-chance romance, and it is much more than that. It's a story of undying love and the price one can pay for that kind of love. I loved every word of this one.
