Forbid Me by M. Robinson
3.0
I see a theme developing as I read this series, other than than the obvious 2nd chance, and that's how to make it as difficult as possible for the MC's to get together by other people interfering and a lot of self sabotage.
In the first book I hadn't really taken to either the H or the h, in this the h shines and the hypocrite H doesn't. If you read the first book you'll understand why I refer to him that way. It's mentioned in this book to but if you haven't read the first you won't appreciate the depth of his hypocrisy. I also found the age thing when she was 15 a little icky. The writings good and there's enough here to keep you involved but the resolution comes with too much drama and once we have the big reveal, not a sufficiently good reason for the length of their last separation. It was all about him. As for friendships her brother isn't given the space to get over what is major deception by his best friend. That rankled. So far, other than Lilly (the h), I really don't find any of the characters in this little friendship group likeable.
I will continue to read the series all be it after a break as Dylan's and Aubrey's story calls.
