Warning: this book contains Cheating and a Cliffhanger
There is so much that happens in this book. My emotions were all over the place, and I wasn't really sure how I felt about the book. However I have been thinking about this book all week since I finished it,. It is a story that stays with you and affects you. I loved the authors writing and how the story flowed. I do not like cheating in books and I am having a hard time getting over it in this book. Im hoping in the follow up books we really get into the characters head on why they decided to cheat. There were sooooo many times I wanted to shake some of the characters and saw what are you doing!!!
The main character are Lila, Liam, and Evan. Liam has been in love with Lila since he laid eyes on her. Lila took a little longer to discover her feeling for Liam, but once she falls she falls hard. The are soul mates and extremely in love, but Liam is going away to serve in the Armed Forces and Lila is going to school in New York. While in New York Lila meets Evan. They start out as just friends, but both develop strong feelings. Evan wants more with Lila and she is lonely without Liam and is drawn to Evan. What happens when you're in love with two different people? How can you chose one and forget about the other? Find out what Lila decides and how she lives with her decisions by reading this book. There is so much more that goes on in the story but you'll have to read it to find out.
I am definitely Team Liam. I didn't dislike Evan, but I just feel like he isn't meant for Lila. I also loved the supporting characters and can't wait to see if they get their own books ( hopefully Nikki and Lila's brother get their own!!). Once you read this book you will need to read the follow-up. I HAVE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS!!!! Ah that ending about killed me. I saw the HEA at the end of the tunnel and them train wreck! I'm hoping we will get more answer in the very near future!
Playlist
I love music! I have used some of
these songs in Embracing Love. I have listened to all of
them while writing, some of them over and over. I would open the playlist and
get lost in the music while writing. Each song has lyrics that fit with the
characters, and their story. There are a couple songs that mean more than
others. When I say I had them on repeat, they were on repeat for hours! My
husband is thankful for my ear buds.
