Jessie leaves her cheating husband to start fresh in a new town, determined to heal and never love again. But her charming new neighbor, Morgan, keeps breaking down her walls. As her past threatens to catch up, Jessie must decide – can she trust her heart again, or will betrayal follow her once more?
Crushed Heart Exhaustion is all I felt, and I can not wait to crawl into my bed and just catch up on some sleep after a long day. I had just gotten back from work and after an exhausting day of working with the kids at school I just wanted to take a nap before…
