Goodness this read was so emotional and taxing! So much happened in this relatively short story. I felt like my heart couldn’t take any more if it were longer. Holden and Prue’s second chance romance story was tragedy and heartbreaking, but also fulfilling and joyous.
I truly adored both main characters. They both brought something so special to the story and held their own through their individual chapters. Holden broke my heart. What a weight he had carried for years on his shoulders. And due to tragedy, was forced to shoulder even more.
Prue wore her heart on her sleeve. She dove in head first with Holden and never looked back. I loved how forgiving and understanding she was, even when her heart was pushed to its limits.
The supporting characters in this book were incredible! I absolutely loved the friendship that Prue had found in Alex. The support they provided for each other through the good times and the tough ones was so sweet. I loved Alex and Luke’s relationship and how it provided such a positive example for Prue and Holden to aspire to.
Such an incredible ending for this duo. I absolutely loved how the author wrapped up the story!!!!!

This book wrecked me in the best way possible. I felt Prue’s pain as a teenager, I felt her pain as an adult and all the heartache she has been dealt in her short lifetime. When it came to Holden I wanted to hate him for what he did to Prue after graduation but once he was able to explain what had happened it was so hard to dislike him and the more he did and the harder he tried to make things better I was swooning over the man!
I absolutely loved their beautiful second chance. It wasn’t always easy and they had to work through what had happened in the past. I loved watching them get to know each other again and for Prue to slowly begin to forgive Holden through their e-mail exchanges. The worry and the fears and all the emotions, it was so easy to feel those along with Prue and my heart literally broke for her and for Holden.
Prue and Holden’s story is HANDS DOWN one of my FAVORITE second chance romances. This story was filed with so many emotions and it felt so real and it was so easy to connect with the characters and all their pain and happiness.
This is the third book in the Fairlane series, but it can be read as a complete standalone.

This was such a great book and I never wanted to put it down!
I completely understood why Prue was hesitant to get involved with Holden again after what happened but when you learn why he did what he did you begin to soften towards him. I hated that Holden was forced to do what he did but ultimately he did to protect Prue not knowing how her own life was going to turn for the worse.
I liked that Holden wanted to do something for Prue before he left in order to make sure that she was going to be ok while he was gone. He was still completely in love with her so it made perfect sense but it was fast. I loved that she was able to get a house and it sounds like it is perfect and one I would want for myself!
Then the book turns and things get scary. First Prue and then Holden and things are not easy. My heart really broke for Holden as everything changed for him and he no longer felt like the man he was. I can’t imagine how many veterans go through this type of thing and it isn’t easy and I liked how real and authentic the author made everything. My heart was broken for Prue and I loved the talk she had with Alex that made her re-evaluate the way she had been going about everything.
I loved the ending and how they both came out so much stronger because of everything!!
I am looking forward to the next book in the series!

Unsteady in Love is the third book in the Fairlane series and tells the story of Holden and Prue. Unsteady in Love can be read as a standalone.
Unsteady in Love is the first book I’ve read by Harlow Layne and I’m happy that I requested a copy. I really liked the synopsis and the book was even better! Unsteady in Love was such a beautiful Romance book!
Holden and Prue both went through a lot, they struggled and were in pain, but in the end they became such strong characters. They weren’t sure whether they could save their relationship or not, but it was so beautiful to read about how they were trying to fix it.
I really liked Unsteady in Love because it was really beautiful and such a quick read. I cannot wait to read the other books in the Fairlane series!

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. This was so sweet! I really want to read the ones that came first in this series. I know they are all standalone, but I want to get to know the other characters. Prue and Holden are so strong. I loved their story. I would read more by this author. The narrator was awesome too!
