Firstly wanted to say, I didn't read the 1st book and didn't really need to nor did I have the urge to read it after finishing this one. That could definitely change many people's opinions on this book.
Secondly, I truly love a HEA but sometimes you are going through something and need to witness that even made-believe characters go through it too. They aren't perfect after the HEA, they make mistakes, they experience tragedies, and the MMC sometimes isn't the dream guy you made him out to be.
Now with all that laid out, I truly loved this book. I was rooting for my girl Becca the whole damn time. To see everything she had to go through and come out of that so much stronger really inspired me. Emma did such an amazing job writing about the trauma and aftermath of what Becca had to go through. Also, Sam sticking by her side through all of this was so comforting after everyone completely dropped her without even asking her what happened. That was very disappointing. You would think friends who have known her for a long time would be able to see how out of character this was for her. And God, don't even get me started with Ryan. I honestly wished that he lived his life never getting to experience a love like the one she gave him. For me, he didn't deserve forgiveness not after everything he put her through. The never-ending cruelty that he constantly put her through. It was gutwrenching. Anyway, that is all I will say about him because just thinking about him makes me want to wring his neck.
