I never know what to expect with book 2 in a series or duology, but this did not disappoint.   Every part felt vital to the story, the characters didn't suddenly morph into somebody different, and the dark subject matter was once again handled beautifully. 

And honestly, can Mrs. K be the MVP of this story?  She is such a wonderful character and I love the humor she provides. 

Reading the conclusion of these two was so satisfying.  The highs and lows we all so well written.

And Johnny is seriously now one of my favorite MMCs ever.

Such a great conclusion, fantastic writing, a plot that never gets dull, and I do so love a HEA.

Young Love • Found Family • 

A truly well written story that plays out over a year in two parts. For me personally it was just too long but that my own personal gripe, I still very much enjoyed their story. If you struggle to pick up really long books like me I’d recommend audiobooking parts to get you through. I read book 1 in its entirety but only 50% of this one and turned to the audiobook to finish it off. So thank my library now have access to these books. 

Shannon is a small, meek character who has experienced a world of pain growing up in the home she’s been dealt with. 

Johnny, who is slightly older is the boy who saves Shannon and comes from a loving, supportive family in contrast.
