• Pro: One of the best things about this book was Marlee. She was sassy, but could back all her talk up with action. She had to make some really tough choices in this book, and I really admired the way she picked herself up and made lemonade out of lemons. Most importantly, she learned to make the decisions that were best for her.
• Pro: I didn't like Gavin - I LOVED Gavin!!! He was just all sorts of perfection, and I couldn't have asked for a better hero.
• Pro: Female friendships always rate real high with me, and Marlee was lucky to have two amazing women in her life - Naomi, her bestie, who was always there for her, and Brynn, her boss-friend, who took a chance on Marlee, when she was starting anew. I loved them both, and adored the dynamic they had together.
• Pro: Gavin and Marlee were magical together. I loved their ease, their banter, and the genuine affection, which I felt between them.
• Pro: This book was more than a romance, it was the story of woman, who had to find her way back to herself after years and years of living in her boyfriend's shadow, and she did so in such a fabulous way.
• Pro: The ending made me so happy. Martin gave me some of my favorite things with that ending. Seriously, my face hurt from how much it made me smile.
Overall: A fantastic debut, which has me chomping at the bit for the next book.
