One of my favorite things about literature is that they can affect you in a plethora of ways. Sometimes it might remind you of a memory. Sometimes it resonates within your soul and makes you feel sad or happy. The reaction is always different depending on the reader and therein lies the beauty of words. They are magic. This is one of those books that do all of the above--at least for myself.

This book hit me hard. I was adopted. I had biological siblings. My childhood consisted of being in the system before finally being adopted. While my story was different it still gave me the same insecurities just in reverse. It made my heart break for Aaron. I wanted to hold him and tell him that he was good enough. That he did deserve good things--including to and not limited to being loved and loving in return.

Amelia. Good lord. This woman was perfect. Truly perfect. I felt the hurt that she felt with her dad. Her love for Aaron and her conflicted feelings were genuine and on point. What would it be like to be caught with your heart loving two people?

Aaron. Sweet sex on a stick. That man is EVERYTHING. Every time I read one of Meghan's books I tell myself that there is NO way that I can love any character more than I did before. I should just quit challenging myself because i do every time. I am putting my foot down though and say that Smalls is my favorite. He melted my jaded heart. He reminded me that it is possible to not only love but to love UNCONDITIONALLY. His heart is even bigger than his muscles.

Together they are sublime. They make each other better people. They help restore the belief that there is such thing as kismet or soulmates. Normally, Meghan's books have a lot of humor in them. While there is humor it is not as much the focus in this one as the hidden underlying message of the importance of feeling love and BEING loved.

This book is a standalone but I would recommend reading the first books in this series because the characters from the other books make an appearance in this book (which were hilarious BTW). You won't regret it. I promise (and you are welcome in advance).

I am sad that this series is over. I feel like all of these characters are my friends. I want to know about their futures. However, I say this after every one of Meghan's books/series and then she starts a new series or book taunting me as if it is a shiny squirrel and then I fall in love again. This book/series will be hard to move from the top spot.

I received a complimentary advanced readers copy in exchange for an honest review. If I had my way this book would get more than 5 stars. Definitely one of the best of 2017. ( )

OMG I thought the other 2 books in this series in turn were my favorite, but no...this one is. My heart broke for Aaron so hard in the beginning of the book, and it really sets to tone to explain why he is the way he is. I absolutely adored this second chance romance. Meghan Quinn is a master at her craft, she makes you laugh, she makes you cry, and she makes the characters so real it's like they are your friends. Do yourself a favor and read this book! Told in dual pov.
