Havent had a laugh like this a while about a book. Like full on belly laugh about that Mark and Cam conversation.
Maybe it was not in my alley this time, but all and all good book. Only thing that was very annoying was all the crying, mostly done by Lucy, but indeed too much is too much.

My favourite!

I was so excited to finally get to Cam and Lucy’s story, and it was more than I ever thought possible! I laughed out loud so many times, my heart broke into a million pieces, and then it healed better than it was before.

Wow. This was amazing. I laughed and laughed more than any other book. My heart swelled, then my heart was destroyed, and then I found HOPE again. Cam and Lucy were great together too. I love how Cam never gave up and kept fighting for Lucy. There were some pretty unrealistic scenes with TMI shared with the parents and made me roll my eyes like the drs office scene, but besides that I loved this book. It’s not 5 stars for me because I don’t like crying so much and having my heart literally ache. But Jay McLean is the Queen of the feels. All the feels.

Let me start off by saying "More Than Forever" is my ABSOLUTE favorite book in this series! I felt every single emotion Lucy and Cam felt. I could feel the loss they went through. Everything... everything was perfect with this.

This is the beautiful and tragic story of Lucy and Cam. Their story begins as Lucy's mother is dying of cancer. Her dad is so distraught that she is left to raise her six little brother (that's right, SIX.) Cam decides to step in and help after seeing her struggle as he coaches for the twins. He loved her right away, though she did push him away.

She loves books, all kinds of them. I think I love that the most. And she is just so apologetically herself. I wish I could say their love story was perfect and filled of complete happiness all the time, but that wouldn't make it real, now would it?

They go through these events that felt so real, as if they were happening to myself or someone I love. I cried right along side them. It broke my heart in two, that's how much I felt it. But love conquers all and they found their way back home to each other. Their happy ending... its the one I needed. The one to give me hope that love really is possible.

It doesn’t matter how many times I read Cam and Lucy’s story they take a piece of me with every reread.

Cam and Lucy have an instant connection but it’s also so much More Than that. Cam comes into Lucy’s life at a time that her family has been tilted on its axis. Lucy becomes everything to everybody while Cam makes Lucy his everything.

There love is different than any other book I have ever read, the intensity at such a young age, the maturity they both have, all of these things that set them apart from other couple’s in romance novels.

They were met to be, you could feel it on the pages as they fell in love.

Sometimes, bad things happen to good people even the ones who have already had more than their share of tragedy.

Sometimes, something breaks and its pure devastation to everyone involved.

Sometimes, something that’s broken is put back together and comes out the other side with more strength, love and devotion.

This isn’t just a book to read, More Than romance, More Than friendship, it’s an overwhelming journey of grief, finding healthy ways to cope, a reminder that it’s ok to break and it’s ok to ask for help when life has you gasping for air. And of course, a happily ever after that’s straight out of a Disney movie.

Well that was a disappointment. I was so thrilled to be reading about Cam and Lucy...but this isn't what I expected.
1. This book covers about 6 years, from when they first met until a year after they're married. So a lot was crammed into the book.

2. Logan was barely in the book. As in practically not at all. And him and Lucy are supposed to have some super great friendship. I don't see it. This book only focuses on Lucy and Cam, no one else. This is kind of expected seeing as their relationship spans out between 6 years, so the author clearly wants as much Cam/Lucy time as possible.

3. In addition to the point above, none of their other friends were really in the book either.

4. Cam was a jerk.

5. A really big jerk.

6. I liked their relationship better in the other books...when it actually wasn't totally focused on them. This whole book was just a major disappointment and it was hella depressing as well. Ugh. I'm just done. Logan and Amanda were the best part of the series.



Before reading: I haven't even read the third book yet. But Lucy and Cam? Yes. Yes.

SPOILER ALERT.

I love Cam and Lucy. (Not as much as Jake and Micky, but still!) I did think although that their story was long. It could of done without so much detail. I understand they had a perf relationship with all their time consumed with one another; I get it. Besides the everlasting explanation of that, bravo. The ending leaves you wondering if they end up conceiving or not. (I really hope they can!)

Emotionally Griping. Jay has done it again! She has torn out our hearts and stitched them back together. I have Loved Lucy since I first read about her in the other books in this series. This book takes you back to her beginning, tells you her story. You better prepare yourself because you will not be ready. Hell I have read this book several times and I every time I reread it, I'm still not ready. Lucy is so incredibly strong. She goes through heartache and loss at such a young age and she doesn't get to stop and cope because she has to grow up rather quickly to take care of her brothers. Luckily Cam is there, Cam is the perfect Book Boyfriend... so perfect he gives Jake Andrews a run for his money. Cam is there for Lucy, he has such a big heart. He is also wiser than his 15 years. He becomes Lucy's rock, her strength. Cam takes care of Lucy when she is too busy trying to take care of everyone else. "No one takes care of me. No one. Not even dad. He can't even take care of himself." This is so much more than a love story. Cam and Lucy's love is truly spectacular. It's so much more than Forever. I feel like out of all the characters of this series I connect the most with Lucy. She is my Spirit animal.. seriously. She is always reading, trying to escape in the pages of a book to get away from everything happening around her. And drunk Lucy... Ha! Drunk Lucy is just too much! I don't think I have ever laughed so much. This story really is everything. There is so much heartache and devastation but there is also so much humor and Love. The way Cam loves Lucy is so completely, so unconditionally, it's so raw. "He's fierce.".."Yeah. The way he cares for me- the way he protects me. It's fierce. He's fierce". This is one of those stories that stays in your heart. It consumes you and will always be in the back of your mind. I highly recommend reading this book! You will not be disappointed.
