Every Second with You

Happily, Ever After
Embarking on my literary quest in search of the perfect read has been an exciting journey. This year, I've taken pride in my commitment to provide honest one and two-star reviews when a book doesn't quite resonate with me. While I'm pleased to have completed this series, I must admit that the overall experience falls into the three-star category. Nevertheless, with a few more months left in the year, I remain optimistic about discovering some five-star gems.

Having said that, “ Every Second with You “ delivered precisely the ending I had hoped for in this story. Although I found satisfaction in the conclusion of “The Thrill of It,” I harbored a deeper desire for Trey and Harley's growth as individuals and as a couple. The conclusion couldn't have been more fitting, even though the journey was far from easy.

In this book, Lauren Blakely continued to weave a tapestry of highs and lows, taking readers on an emotional rollercoaster. There were moments when worry crept in, and I even entertained the thought of reaching through my Kindle to shake a character or two. However, unlike my apprehension during the first installment, I knew this time that Trey and Harley were destined for a happy ending. This knowledge made the moments of tears and frustration more bearable. And trust me, there were quite a few such moments. I admired Lauren's willingness to confront challenging themes head-on, which added depth to the narrative.
