***Review From Amy Conley For The Nerd Girl Page***
Kayley Carson thought she had it all...married to the love of her life, a great job, and a baby on the way. Then one day, her life changes forever when she loses her husband in a tragic accident. No longer sure how to navigate life after her enormous loss, Kayley clings to her newborn baby, her family, and her friends to keep herself living.

When she meets someone that challenges her belief that she's better off alone, she has to decide if she is capable of letting him in after swearing she was never going to love anyone the same way again.

She's not the only one with a painful past. He is struggling with trust issues after a previous relationship went horribly wrong. After a terrible misunderstanding brings out both of their insecurities, will the painful memories of the past keep them both from living again?


My Review:
I had so much fun reading this book and enjoyed it so much I completely lost myself within it! There are certain scenes that are my favorite and will stick with me forever! While it did have it's more serious sides.. times in which Kayley and Ben had to deal with heartbreak and loss on both sides it also had it's funny and entertaining moments! I only wish I had a good man like Ben who doted and loved his family with every fiber of his being and a best friend like Emily who is there for you through thick and then/good and bad with non-stop moments of laughter! These characters were so much fun to read and enjoy! Reading this book was such an emotional roller coaster because at times I'd find myself crying, my heart literally breaking into pieces at what the character's were going through.. then feeling amazed at the strength they carried to get them past what they've lived through and starting over.. it really makes you think could I go through something like that and have the strength to get through it like Kayley did??? and lastly all the moments that had me laughing uncontrollably I was trying to read through the tears!! The author did a good job mixing things up and letting the scenes flow into themselves the only thing I would comment on is that there were a few times where I felt the character's were becoming a little repetitive and it felt like they were saying things over and over that had already previously been said and done.
Otherwise I felt like this book has great structure, flawless timing, easy flowing scenes, and one amazing, gripping, emotional story that you won't soon forget and will be recommending to all your book loving friends! I hope everyone enjoys this book just as much as I have!
