For You by Ari Wright

4.0

For You is the 3rd book in the Instant Always series and although there are recurring themes and characters in it, it can totally be read as a standalone, as I have done.

OH HOW I LOVED THIS BOOK!. It was my first Ari Wright book and I’m definitely now a fan (and am going back to read the other 2)!

This book, a romantic journey between Marco (a security expert & bodyguard) and Alice (a wedding planner), was a beautiful love story, well written with totally relatable characters that made you want to laugh & cry with, get angry over, cheer for and admire their connection, when neither of them thought it was possible. The suspense aspect of this book was wonderfully paced and kept my attention! I thought I had it figured out & I was wrong which thrilled me! There were some parts that were totally unexpected (especially the last few chapters) and I loved it!

My ❤️ ached for Alice, who as a plus-sized MFC all her life had people tell her she wasn't pretty enough, or good enough or just..enough. She is a beautiful soul, kind, selfless, caring and so loving.

Marco is swoon-worthy on so many levels, as every book boyfriend should be and when he finally realizes that the woman he has seen many times before is really the love of his life, he will do whatever it takes to show her that he sees both her inner and outer beauty and how much he cherishes it.

There’s romance, suspense, sadness, longing, anger and selflessness, self doubt and realization and most of all LOVE. This book will run you through the gambit of emotions and you will thank Ari for the rollercoaster ride at the end.

Thanks to Ari & happilybookedpr for my wonderful eArc read of this book.
