Live for Me

I really enjoyed Live for Me. It's unlike other NA Romances that I've read, but still has that same feel like I love about the genre. When it starts, Tiffany is being kicked out of her grandmother's house. She bounced from foster home to foster home until her grandmother took her in four years ago, because she needed care. But now she's out. Tiffany doesn't let it get her down though. She finds a job working as a housekeeper which comes with free board so that she can save for college classes. Then she meets her boss and her life changes forever.

Live for Me is a younger girl, older guy, interracial romance and I love that! Tiffany is 18 and Devin is thirty-something, so it's not creepy. Tiffany is also an old soul and likely wouldn't relate to others her age that well anyway. She also doesn't let his wealth intimidate her. She wants respect and knows that she deserves it and won't let anyone make her feel less than. Devin does struggle with her age at first, and it causes a ton of tension which was great! Their relationship definitely didn't develop the way I thought it would.

Live for Me was a great read. There are a couple of time jumps, followed by brief recaps of events which I found a bit annoying. I would have liked to have seen some of these things play out, and it's not like this is a long read at all. Tiffany and Devin were great together. I loved seeing these two lonely souls find each other, and it's almost like a Cinderella story with Tiffany going from having nothing to having everything.
