The Redo by Max Monroe
4.0
4 stars, 2.5 chili peppers
The only other book in this series I have read is the one before this, The Secret, which I loved! And I was very excited to start Remy's story after seeing him in The Secret. And truly Remy is so swoony and just wants to take care of those who loves, even when it ends up being people he wasn't expecting.
Remy and Maria, who were high school sweethearts over 20 years ago, reconnect thanks to getting tracpped in an elevator together one afternoon. When Remy notices she is VERY pregnant, it soon comes out that it is with her sister's baby, who she is now set to raise due to a horrible accident taking her sister and brother in law from her. Even though Remy gives Maria his number, she doesn't get in tough - certain her life is too much drama. However, fate has different plans, when they reconnect ONCE again on an elevator and in much more exciting and life changing cirumstances. From there on out, it soon becomes impossible for Maria to keep Remy out of her life - because he is insistent on taking care of her and that precious baby, even when she thinks she doesn't need it. But soon it becomes clear there is much more there than just wanting to help with a baby. But are they risking to risk their heart on it all again, after they both have gone so long certain they were never meant to be with someone??
There were parts of this I LOVED . I adored Maria and her story brought me to tears. She is such a strong character, and the way she loves Izzy and fights through struggles we couldn't imagine was beautiful. I lovedddd Remy and his knight in shining armor ways, wanting to care for and protect Maria in any ways she will let him. I loved seeing them reconnect, and always love seeing the glimpses into their past.
But I also had parts that I felt lacked. I thought we should have gotten so much more about what happened 20 years in the past to not just break them up but keep them from ever speaking since. I felt like we could have dug more into Maria and how she has coped/still struggling to cope with all the things life has thrown at her. And I would have wanted to dig a bit more into Remy and how he has healed from what happened in his past.
But overall, I really enjoyed this book, and I for sure need to go back and read the first 2 in the series now, to round it out!
