Someday by Willow Aster
4.0
4.5/5 star rating.
Tropes:
- small town
- second chance
- childhood best friends to lovers, to high school sweethearts…to second chance? (I think that’s the best way to describe it)
Very cute continuation to this interconnected standalone series!
It had me on the edge of my seat from the very beginning, craving answers to the reasoning of everything that went down. They’ve been massively in love with one another ever since they can remember, from childhood best friends, to high school sweethearts, they’ve been attached at the hip their whole lives…
But then she left with no answer as to why, never to return…until eight whole years later…
He’s angry at her, so damn resentful, when all she wants is the man she still loves to at least give her a chance to explain herself…
So much angst! So many unanswered questions throughout their separation, and I kept turning and turning those pages for answers…and when we got them, damn did it hurt!
Theo and Sofie definitely held my attention, and I craved that happy ending for them both!!
And as much as I loved their story, there were some parts that held me back from giving it a full 5 stars…
• Biggest one was probably that he wasn’t celibate AT ALL, in there separation, sleeping around with God knows how land women *cue me cringing* …now this is where some of you are rolling your eyes, saying “inessa…of course the man had sex with a ton of women in the 8 year separation, especially when Sofie left so abruptly…”
But that’s not the biggest problem I had, It’s the fact that Sofie didn’t sleep, nor do ANYTHING with any man in that span of time…(I don’t even think she went on a single date)
I hate this trope…the one where the men is allowed to sleep around in the time their apart, but the girl, oh me oh my, she hasn’t even looked at a man! Because she loves him so much. But don’t worry! He loves her too! Trust me he said so himself , no matter how many women he slept with he never forgot her
