Backslide by Nicole Dykes

When you’re young, everything seems brighter, more hopeful, and like anything is possible.
Which is great. But it can also lead to so many mistakes.
Mistakes you promise yourself you’ll never make again.
You promise yourself you’ll be smarter, guard your heart, and make better decisions. And you won’t ever let anyone crush you again.
But what happens when you’re confronted with the past?
Nash Davis is settled and happy, helping his brother and his wife pursue their dreams.
But when his biggest regret comes crashing back into his life, will he have the strength he promised himself he’d have?
Can he keep his walls up? Or will Adrian Walker’s presence be too much?
Will it lead toward an inevitable backslide to where they began? Or can there be a future after so much pain?
When Nash and Adrian are thrown together in the Ozarks for months, they’re about to find out.
