I loved love love loved it. I loved the story, the writing the gripping emotions and feelings and what Miles went through as well as Tate, Rachel and a few insides to other side characters  it was just so well put together and wanting to know more about what happened in mile's past to make hime the way he was and why he was feeling and ending up the way he is. I felt my heart drop in

chapter 32 having just lost a child myself due to miscarriage I know was slightly different circumstances and situations but I felt so much with in this chapter and one or 2 more of them after it

I just had to keep reading till the end to see how it all worked out , Miles and Tate deserve each other so much. 
Love your family no matter how small or big. Those close to you that make you feel loved or wanting to give love back. Hug them a little tighter each day.

emotional medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

While the main characters spend more time without clothing than dressed, the open-door scenes  manage to be both detailed and relatively non-graphic. The characters’ arcs and development are worth sticking around for, whether you came for more spice or less. Overall, an entertaining and quick read.

2.0

A lot of people recommend this book, but I have no idea why. It was 100% predictable and because the story was too weak to stand on its own, it was filled with soft porn. This is the second of her books I’ve read, and I don’t think I’ll be reading any more of them.
