Mike had abruptly ended his relationship with Lauren to return to his ex-wife, and she had spent the last two years wondering why. Now a widower for the past year, a temporary assignment brings Lauren back to the Bruisers organization, and back into Mike's orbit. This revived Mike's hope that he could rekindle their relationship, as he had never stopped loving her.
I loved getting to know Mike better. He may have made some mistakes with respect to Lauren, but those decisions were made putting the needs of others above his. He was working so hard to be a fantastic father and he had a heart of gold. It was about time he put some of his needs first.
My heart ached for Lauren. Between her parents and the out-of-nowhere break up with Mike, I understood why she was the way she was, and I wanted her to be able to find some happiness. She was tough on Mike, she made him work for it, but I agreed with her holding him off.
Another fabulous addition to the Bruisers series. My heart broke and was put back together so many times. The flashbacks were largely responsible for the sad tears, but the present day brought me many happy tears. The ending was so sweet and joyful.
