#BookSpotlight #Reviews: The Day He Came Back by Penelope Ward



THE DAY HE CAME BACK IS LIVE!

A Standalone Contemporary Romance
New York Times, USA Today, and #1 Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author
Penelope Ward 





SYNOPSIS

It was the summer of my life.
I’d met the guy of my dreams.
Unfortunately, he was the son of my uppity employer—and very much off-limits.
But Gavin was a rebel. He knew his mother would disown him if she found out about us; in his eyes, we just had to be careful.
He never treated me as his mother did—like hired help.
Instead, Gavin put me on a pedestal and loved me harder than I’d ever been loved in my life.

What a summer it was.
Until it all ended—badly.

I was never supposed to see Gavin again.
That didn’t stop me from thinking about him every day for ten years.
I knew little about his life now, just that he was an entrepreneur living an ocean away.

When a twist of fate had me working again in the very place our love affair started a decade earlier, I knew it was only a matter of time before I might see him again.
But I wasn’t prepared.
What if he hated me?
What if he loved someone else now?
I wasn’t prepared for all the unknowns.

And most of all, I wasn’t prepared for today to be the day he came back.

Review
By Janett

This book was simply beautiful and heartbreaking.

When Penelope Ward writes a story she gets your feelings one hundred percent involved with her characters and the storyline. While some people might say that one of the subject matters of this story are "old fashioned," this is something that still happens in a lot of countries.

Raven and Gavin loved each other at a very young age, they kept their relationship hidden from his family, but unfortunately destiny is sometimes very cruel and they ended up living separate lives. Years later life brings them together again, but would they be able to get over all the heartbreak from the past?

Gavin comes back after all those years gone and see the girl who broke his heart taking care of his father, while he doesn't agree with it, he lets it go because he see the affection these two have for each other. Raven was such a strong, beautiful soul, the love for her mom is admirable, and the devotion to Gavin's dad made me cry. I'm not going to lie, this book affected me a lot and that's probably I related to Raven so much, because I'm going through something similar to what is described in the book. Penelope did a fantastic job treating a sensitive and sad subject with respect and compassion.

This is an excellent story that will stay in your heart for a long time.



Review 
by Darlene 

 The Day He Came Back by Penelope Ward reminds me of a slower time. A time of old fashion values, ideologies, and prestigious devisions.

As you read this book, you’ll feel as though you’ve stepped back into the 1950’s but with a modern twist.

I enjoyed the pace of this book and the way Penelope unfolds her characters and the dramas they have had to faced over the past decade.

Because at the heart of it ... lost love is a tragedy in its own right.

Penelope handles sensitive subjects with care, while still giving her readers a raw honesty.

“The moment we met, you knocked me on my ass. I knew there was something there. You’re not just some girl. You’re the girl.”

Raven and Gavin are worth the read and worth all the feels.
