Make You Love Me by Alexandra Grace is book one in the You and Me series and is so freaking good!! If you love friends to lovers, forced proximity, healing together, right person wrong time, infertility rep, millionaire, pregnancy, mental health representation books then you will love this book.
Jordan Jones is a veteran was in an accident where he suffered a head injury and suffers from amnesia. Because of his amnesia he believes that he is in a relationship with his ex girlfriend Nora. His doctors do not want to hurt his recovery so asks everyone to go along with it. Nora and Jordan were on/off again and bc of his amnesia thinks they are on. She reluctantly agrees to go along with it. Nora having been throughly so much in her past keeps people at a distance not wanting to get close to anyone.
This was such an emotional read and one I could not put down. The story was so well written and the characters, as well as the side characters, are amazing and so strong. It felt like you were going through everything with the characters. I loved the love story between Nora and Jordan and the build up of sexual tension between them was done so well. What I love about Alexandra Grace’s books is her representation of veterans and mental health. She is not afraid to write about the realities for veterans, their struggles when they are discharged from the military entering back into the civilian world and their mental health struggles. Not just the struggles the veterans but for their loved ones as well. She even created VETS in her books to help Veterans get the help they need and get back on their feet. Her love and respect for veterans is amazing and I learn a lot. I cannot recommend her books enough. I was given this book as an ARC in exchange for my honest thoughts and opinions.
