He never forgot his first love… too bad his first love would do just about anything to forget him.
Rory was Ben’s oldest and best friend until senior year of high school, when lifelong friendship turned into something so much more. They had each other and what felt like forever until Ben chose closeted popularity over true love…
He’s regretted it ever since.
Ten years later, Ben is out and proud and teaching art at the same high school he graduated from. He’s excited to meet the new chemistry teacher next door until he finds out the brand new teacher is none other than Rory Newton—the first love he’s never come close to getting over.
Despite a painfully awkward start, it doesn’t take Ben long to realize he’ll do whatever it takes to win Rory back.
But it’s starting to look like even his best might not be enough.
** This is a second edition of a previously published book **
Newton's Laws of Attraction is a wonderful, feel good read by MJ O'Shea. The first book in The Science of Love series, it's a short and sweet second chance romance.
Rory and Ben get a second chance years after they broke up. They were best friends and high school boyfriends, but now they are teaching at the same school.
Their reunion is initially full of unresolved anger, pain, hurt, and guilt. Adolescence is a horrible time for kids to be true to their feelings. The peer pressure aspect is completely understandable. It's not nice, and it makes Ben a total ass, but it's so damn understandable as well.
It's slow going for the two but there's no denying how they still feel for each other.
And I love the mother!!! What a breath of fresh air she is!
Written in dual pov, we get to understand both men well. The reason for their breakup is realistic and completely painful. As well, getting back together is realistic as people change and grow up.
Newton's Laws of Attraction is a great tale of forgiveness and love. This MJ O'Shea left me happy with this sweet in the end tale.
