More Than Forever by Jay McLean

5.0

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.
