loved this romance of a bike rider and nurse and their quick marriage . They end up leaving each other but 5 years later, he comes into the ER and she helps nurse him back to health. They find love again.

DNF for me. Writing was very juvenile and the way the characters talked reminded me of a YA read. Very repetitive about 20% of the way through. Couldn’t get past it

I absolutely loved every page of this cute second chance romance. I was in a bit of a reading slump because of a chain of books with huge world building and extensive lists of characters, and this lovely story got me out of it instantly.
It's a cozy book, grab a coffee and a blanket to read it in one day, because you won't be able to put it down.

Eve and Fost turned quickly into comfort characters for me. I also really liked seeing their careers and groups of friends being described, enjoyed and shared. I feel like we don't usually get background of career choices and this was really refreshing. There were other characters that added depth to their romance too, like Matty, Jess and Phil. The going back and forth with flashbacks/dreams was masterfully done, so it never got confusing or repetitive.

I just hope we would have seen (instead of being told of) them growing and overcoming their flaws, I also got a bit anxious when the HEA was MIA at around 90% of the book, but swooned like a little girl when I got to that part, giggling and kicking my feet for their cuteness.

The only other thing that was not my jam was the strong use of some stereotypes... several characters were oversimplified or exacerbated cliché (Latina women, Gay people, Southern states). I could have done without the constant clarification of accents or choice of clothing.

Overall, I would recommend this book to romance readers and possibly do a re-read if I feel stuck, as it was a quick and fun book!

Still the One was a great second chance romance featuring a couple reconnecting after five years. Eve Cassidy didn't expect to see her ex-husband on what would have been their fifth wedding anniversary and definitely didn't expect for him to be a patient in a trauma room at the hospital where she is a trauma nurse. Her ex, Guy Foster, was brought in with a ton of injuries from a crash during a FMX competition nearby. When Guy needs to stay locally to recover, Eve agrees to have him stay with her and to help him recover. They quickly learn that their connection is still there after almost five years apart. Neither Eve nor Foster will win awards for communication - but they were a great pairing with plenty of fun, flirty moments. Still the One was an entertaining closed door romance - a quick, fun read with humor and heart. Thank you to Boldwood Books and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this novel.

A huge thank you to the publisher, NetGalley and Aimee Brown for this ARC in exchange for an honest opinion.

As a sucker for second chance romance and fan of medical dramas, I had to read this book.
Overall, I liked the story and the forced proximity. The dreams and flashbacks were a great way of giving insight into the characters’ past and why their relationship ended. There was definitely tension between them, but no spice (which made sense given the mc’s situation).
The ending and epilogue were cute, but I didn't like the conflict and miscommunication. I would've wished for them to sit down and have a mature conversation where they say what they mean. Eve said the opposite of what she actually wanted and expected Foster to read her mind, which in my opinion wasn't fair to him.
I’d still recommend this book to anyone who prefers clean romance with only kissing and likes second chance. The acknowledgement broke my heart – I’m sorry the author and her family had to go through that and sincerely hope that they're okay now.

The premise was a great idea, but the execution was tough. The dialogue was meant to be “flirty” but came off immature and hard to read. There was no rekindling, it was just insta-love and fell flat.

A sweet, quick read but, for me, I needed to know more about the characters and their connection.

Thank you to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the chance to read this

I liked this a lot! I did get really tired of the interruptions right in the middle of their crucial conversations; once is a coincidence, but so many times it really took me out of the story. I really appreciated the pace of the way they came back together; it wasn't instant, it took work.

Thank you to the publisher, author and Netgalley for the ARC. I am very grateful to be able to review upcoming releases.

This book fell unfortunately short for me. I was drawn in by the description but left ultimately disappointed by multiple elements.

The dialogue was tough. Not very organic and often cheesy (and not in a fun romcom way). The characters felt flat and unlikeable. I have a hard time rooting for a couple “overcoming” a formerly toxic relationship due to forced proximity. As much as I wanted to like Eve, I couldn’t help but see a damaged person clinging to love from people who can’t treat her how she deserves.

There were moments I enjoyed, but overall I found this one tough to get through. I would be willing to give this author another chance, but this one just wasn’t for me.

The acknowledgments were beautiful. I am so happy that the author and her husband were able to get through the horrible experience that inspired this novel. I wish this novel was closer to their lives as I feel it would have been a much more engaging read.

I love a good marriage reconcilliation book and this one was super sweet. Eve and Fost married quickly and just as quick their marriage ended. Five years later he is in a motorcycle accident and as fate would have it he comes into Eve's trauma bay. She is shaken up and what makes matters worse is that it is on what would have been their 5th anniversary. Come to find out, she is still his emergency contact.
When Fost wakes up and realizes Eve is with him and has been the whole time he was in the hospital, he knows he can't let her go again. He plans to do whatever it takes to win her back because she is the only woman that he has ever truly loved. He just has to find out how to tell her the divorce never really went through and they have been married this whole time.
As they grow closer and he is with her as she helps him get back on his feet he has to decide if he can put her first or if work will always be his first priority.
What I loved about this book was the fact that as soon as he heard Eve's voice he knew what he had to do. If you believe in fate, kismet, whatever, you need to read this book because it is just proof that what is meant to be, will be.
Thanks to Boldwood Books, Amiee Brown and Netgalley for an early copy.

I love a second chance love story. This book brought out all of the emotions. Eve is a hardworking nurse who 5 years ago fell hard and fast for FMX rider Foster. Needless to say it didn’t work out for them back then. Foster has a major wreck on his bike and ends up in the care of non other than Eve.

Aimee Brown was able to portray raw and realistic emotions and actions that happen when you dive face first into love. The characters didn’t hold back on letting you know how they felt and their banter had me giggling. 3.75⭐️

Really makes you think about what ifs and second chances. I like the banter back and forth between characters. The jumping back and forth between the present and past was slightly frustrating for me. Especially since we were also jumping character point of views as well. I enjoyed the book but was frustrated by the main characters lack of enthusiasm or willingness to help themselves. They both seem to think the other should put in all of the effort.

It’s been five years since Eve walked out on her husband Foster and filed for divorce. Five years since she’s even seen his face. That is until he comes into her ER on the verge of dying after a terrible motorcycle crash.

Through the process of Foster healing, Eve remains by his side, conflicted by her remaining feelings for him. As she watches in fear of what will happen to him, she can’t bring herself to leave him alone.

Eve and Foster were honestly such a good pairing! They not only had such a strong love and passion for one another, but their banter was always incredible. This was a super easy, cozy read!

I'm always drawn to romance books that has one of the love interests working in a hospital so I always get excited to see them!
This book was short and sweet and did exactly what it said on the tin. There were parts that I found jarring (including Eve's strange replacements for curse words) but overall it was a perfect book for a relaxing rainy weekend.

If you’re in the mood for a quick, cheesy, closed door romance book, this is for you!
He falls first trope, injury trope, close proximity trope, second chance romance!

Eve and Foster haven’t seen each other in five years. Eve finally runs into him again when he comes in to the ER one day after a motorcross accident. The two of them clearly have some unfinished business and still yearn for each other.

Eve stays with Foster during his long road of recovery. The two of them are suddenly in close quarters together after years of not seeing each other and have no reason to avoid each other and the elephant in the room.

This book was a quick and easy read. I personally didn’t love Eve’s language choice, because she curses super politely (shiitake mushrooms, for example) and I would’ve rather there just be nothing than that. I think the intention behind it was that is who Eve is, because Foster does cuss and whatnot. Altogether, characters and romance was very sweet.


Thank you to Netgalley for this advanced readers copy!

"Still The One" is a captivating second-chance romance that beautifully explores love and healing. Five years after a tumultuous breakup, Eve Cassidy is forced to confront her past when she learns her ex-husband, Guy Foster, has been injured. As she becomes his caretaker, old feelings resurface, revealing the undeniable chemistry that still simmers between them. Aimee Brown masterfully balances heartfelt moments with tension, making their journey both relatable and steamy. The intimate setting of Eve's small apartment adds to the emotional depth, creating a perfect backdrop for their rekindled romance. A delightful read for fans of will-they-won’t-they love stories!

Pretty covers??
Dual POV and funny banter? I'm sat!!
Told y'all how I tend to sometimes judge a book by its cover, and so far it hasn't failed me!!
So guys, I got this book as an advanced reader copy through @netgalley You see, this book is 'THAT' book!
How do I describe it? 'FANTASTIC' is the word! Because the author's narrative style really pulled me in effortlessly!
Well, this book centers around Eve Cassidy, a medical practitioner, and Guy Foster, a professional FMX motorcycle rider.
Eve is that hardworking woman who is really diligent and committed to her job, but she doesn't seem to have the best love life. She was married to the love of her life five years ago, but things went sour, leading them to break apart!
Physically, they were apart, but emotionally, were they really apart? They both never stopped thinking of each other, especially the happy moments and memories they shared and everything in between.
Not too long after their five years apart, the universe had its way of bringing them back together ).
. It happened
that Foster had a severe accident that led him into a coma; he also had several iniuries that needed immediate surgery. It turned out that he was brought into the hospital where Eve works as a nurse. Eve's heart fell to the floor when she saw him in the condition he was rushed in.
During his recovery process, Eve was by his side, and somehow it caused the feelings to resurface again.
But will they rekindle their love or fear being heartbroken again? You'll have to read to find out🤭

Still The One by Aimee Brown is a sweet second chance romance, following Eve, a nurse in theER whose ex-husband, Foster finds himself as a patient following a FMX bike accident. They continue to reconnect and rediscover their feelings for each other throughout the rehabilitation process, resulting in a happy ending.

I found the story to be engaging, fast paced, and sweet. I did find myself annoyed with some of the characters especially with the big reveal as I can’t believe someone could be that aloof. But over all, it was enjoyable. If you’re looking for a zero spice romance, this book should be a consideration.

A special thank you to Netgalley and Boldwood Books for the ARC copy of this book.

sadly this book wasn’t for me. really slow paced and the characters didn’t have much depth to them. had the mc’s had a little more banter i’d have been able to get behind it.

a nice read, but certainly not my favourite from the author.

2.5 stars. I loved both main characters and I thought the storyline was a cute idea- so why 2.5 stars? Not really sure-I think there just wasn’t enough of a connection or development of the two characters to really get me invested in them. I wanted them to be together and was happy with the ending (I dont think I’m spoiling anything-if you’re a rom com reader, you know how they end!), but there was just something missing that I can’t really put my finger on. Thanks NetGalley for the ARC.
