For You by Ari Wright

5.0

“My whole being relaxed while my very soul snapped to attention. Her, it said. Her. And that’s when I knew.”

Ari Wright has taken everything I love in romance books, smushed them together, and created a MASTERPIECE. My expectations were one thousand percent exceeded. ‘For You’ is truly an incredible story, with relatable characters, action/suspense, and the sweetest romance between a bodyguard and a wedding planner.

Marco will absolutely make it on several book boyfriend lists. He’s protective, intelligent, has a broody exterior but softens for his girl. He’s extremely thoughtful and one of the sweetest MMCs I have ever read about. Readers can tell just how much he loves Alice (I could cry just thinking about it). He makes her feel beautiful every second of the day and just loves being around her.

Alice is such a sweetheart. Unfortunately, many people in her life have made her feel like she isn’t worthy or beautiful enough because of her appearance and wallflower nature. Throughout the story, she struggles to love herself and does everything in attempt to please others. However, after meeting Marco, and experiencing love they way she should have a long time ago, she’s able to begin her healing journey and accept/love herself. She truly is such an incredible and inspiring character.

The romantic, yet suspenseful, plot will keep readers on their toes as they navigate through Marco and Alice’s journey. There are twists and turns at every corner which elevates this story to a whole new level. The last few chapters will cause jaws to drop. Ari did a wonderful job with the pace of the suspenseful moments as well as the romantic moments between the two characters. If you get a chance to read this book, I have no doubt that you will fall in love with Marco and Alice’s story.
