Free to Reunite

A bullied-girl-glow-up, reunion-romance, second-chance story filled with secrets, revenge, emotional scars, and a lawyer determined to win back the author who once loved him.

You are cordially invited to a night of secrets. Where old cravings resurface and longings can no longer be denied.

At least, that’s what the invitation should have said.

Kelsey Kennedy should’ve trusted her instincts and skipped her fifteen-year high school reunion. But revenge is tempting—and she wants the people who made her life miserable to see exactly who she’s become.
A bestselling author.
A woman in full control of her life.
Someone they never thought she could be.

There would be no more hiding in shapeless clothes, no more shrinking herself to survive. She’s done being the girl they called King Kong. But one cruel confrontation outside the ballroom shatters her resolve. Kelsey walks away before stepping inside—leaving behind only a name tag with the nickname she’s spent her entire adult life outrunning.

Shaken, she ends up in the hotel bar where she comes face-to-face with Benedict Perrault.
Her first crush.
Her deepest heartbreak.
Her final undoing.

He doesn’t recognize her. It's not a surprise. Nothing about her is the same. Not her body, nor her confidence. Certainly not the woman she’s become. So she makes a dangerous gamble—dangerous to her heart.

For one night, she uses his ignorance to forget the past. She goes all in for unforgettable escape in his bed.

Benedict has spent years wanting to make amends for what happened in high school—his silence, his cowardice. It wasn't until after he broke Kelsey the hazing he endured came out. But by then it was too late. He hurt her when she needed him most. He’s carried that shame into adulthood, vowing he’d apologize if he ever saw her again.

But the moment he discovers the truth—that the woman who rocked his world is the same girl he failed and she's living in his town—everything changes.

Kelsey doesn’t need protection anymore. She built a brilliant life without him. But Benedict is determined to learn who she is beneath the armor she wears and to prove the man he’s become is worthy of the girl he once betrayed.

Now they must confront the shadows of their past or risk losing each other again.

This time for good.
