<strong>Beautifully Written Love Story In The Midst of & After Pain</strong>
This was a much anticipated read for me, because of the seeds planted about Tasha and Cole in Go Deep (Book 1 of Unexpected Lovers Series). Tasha is an amazing woman in a horrific situation with a person that claims to love her. In book one, you can discerned that something is wrong and it is severely impacting Tasha—and Cole is aware of some of the details.
Please check the CWs/TWs because this is a heavy read because of the domestic violence/abuse Tasha experiences in her previous relationship.
One of many of my favorite moments/ quotes is when Cole is talking to his mom about Tasha:
“The Road is still a long one.”
“I know, ma. I’ve got my walking shoes on.”
I honestly can not put into words how amazing Cole is, a man, a friend, a lover—he is all of that and the author captured his character in a way that allowed him to make mistakes and still be the man you want the Happily Ever After with.
I highly recommend this book, I have no doubt that I will come back and edit this review after I re-read it because this is now one of my book babies.
