Devney Perry was a 'new to me' author that so many people have only had amazing things to say about and I'm kicking myself for have waited so long to pick up her books, I can totally understand and agree with what everyone has to say.

Tattered was a book I had sitting in my tbr for so long after seeing everyone rave about it and the Lark Cove series on bookstagram. When I was given a free copy in a newsletter over last Thanksgiving, I still had it sitting in my kindle waiting to be read - once again kicking myself for waiting so long, because oh what an amazing read this was.

It was beautifully written and Thea was a character that I was so easily able go connect with, that reading her story was enjoyable. She was everything I look for in a heroine; smart, sassy, strong and at times really funny. Logan was at times so frustrating because I just wanted him to "get it" but whenever he didn't I felt like thumping him upside the head. However he too was an easily enjoyable character, who you could clearly see how much he truly loved Thea and their daughter Charlie. Now Charlie was such a highlight for me in this book, she was crazy adorable and literally melted my heart everytime I read her parts in the book. Overall I genuinely loved how much both main characters wholeheartedly wanted the best for their daughter and loved her.

Hazel and Jackson (side characters) were just as amazing, they complimented the main characters so well and I looked forward to moments with them mentioned.

I am happy to say that I am now reading Timid and Devney Perry is now one more author that I will have no problem one clicking - if you haven't picked this book up or any book of hers up yet, do it!! Don't wait like I did, you'll just be kicking yourself like I did. One of the easiest five stars I have given ♡

I'm gonna be honest. Both main characters annoyed me so much. Thea should've been honest with Logan with why she didn't want to move to New York. Whenever that subject was talked about, she kept saying no and wouldn't answer him when he asked her why. Logan was too focused on solving the problems to even really listen to her. I know he had the best intentions, but sometimes you gotta think about how you handle things. I feel like they were too immature about a lot of things. There was too much push and pull. Whenever I think they finally took a step forward, they went back 10 steps. It happened too many times.

Also, I didn't like how they immediately acted upon their feelings for one another. Look, I love to read insta-love stories, but I feel like it didn't suit this story. Idk how to explain it, but it was just a weirdly written, I guess.

I do love the way Logan immediately fell in love with his daughter and really tried his best to get to know her. I was so glad that he didn't try to change his daughter and just embraced her wild nature. She was such a sweetheart. I was also very happy that Thea didn't want to keep Charlie away from Logan.

I'm kind of disappointed that I didn't like this book because I had already read Juniper Hill, and i loved it. So I had some kind of hope that her other book would also be fun to read but not this one. I do want to read the rest of the series of Juniper Hill.
