Blurb
It began as a ruse. Take a girlfriend. Divert the press from the fucked up mess that’s my family until my father is re-elected. Stage a public breakup. Move on. Only that brilliant plan went straight south the moment I set eyes on Willow Blackwell. I found her. My center. My future. A soul mate with the will of a mule and the mouth of a harpy. I now want things I never wanted before. Permanent kinds of things. Only Fate—and her ex—have other plans for us. In some sort of cosmic impossibility, our lives unknowingly intersected years before when tragedy befell both our families. Once the devastating truth is finally revealed, the future I’d found in her will come crashing down around us and for the first time in my life I’m completely helpless. I may very well lose the only woman I've ever loved to a past neither of us saw coming.
Review
Naturally I had to read this after reading the first book in this duet. As soon as I saw this in my kindle, I knew I had to get started on it right away. There was no cliffhanger at the end of the first book. But it did leave you with some questions. Questions that I HAD to know the answers to. I really have to say though KL's books just keep getting better and better. You can honestly see her writing develop and mature with each book. I feel I should say this series isn't typically the type of book I would have picked up off the shelf myself. For me this was a very easy read. The formatting was spot on, there were never any moments where I had to stop and reread anything because it all flowed so nicely. It's not an action packed series, but with the way it is written you don't need it. I feel I finished the book in record time even with having to stop and adult for short periods of time. (I had moments where it was hard to pull myself away and adult) I love that this is a book about change, forgiveness and healing. This might be a series that everyone should read.
