Flirting With Forever by Claire Kingsley
5.0
great
I reread the first three in the series so they would be fresh in my mind- and because man, I love the friendships these ladies have.
So, as I was reading, I started to think: “man, this one feels just different than the other three.” I couldn’t put my finger on it, but Claire’s writing was just a bit different- then I looked at the books published dates. And (I’m crying as I write this dang review) life happens- to the creative geniuses that write these amazing worlds I love to read, and to the characters in them… In that sense, this is one of the most real books I’ve ever read. Time passes, in real life and in the boo one, and people change. Big and small, events impact the lives we are reading about.
SO! We had the first three girls find their HEAs, and Nora is so happy for them. But that means her relationships with them are fundamentally different than they were in the previous installments. Instead of the Fab Four ladies going for their runs rewarded by dirty martinis, we see the growth and change in that dynamic when Nora laced up her running shoes and pounds pavement solo. It’s poignant, that simple instance exemplifying the difference.
Loved this series and loved this book.
