Releasing Keanu by Siobhan Davis

5.0


My love for the Kennedy boys is a total addiction. I have been anxiously awaiting the triplets- convinced that they will be my favorite men, and so far, I’m 100% right. Keanu does not disappoint- he’s jumped straight into my heart and soul.

This story is definitely the most emotional of the stories for me thus far. There are parts that are hard and painful to read. While every couple has had their own fair share of drama and some painful personal of couple history, this one rocked me the most. Selena has a dark history- and here we get the full spectrum of her past pain. There are dark and gritty parts, and sweet and gentle parts- either way, I was ALL in my feelings long after reading this story. They are so sweet, so powerful, so STRONG- and they owned me.

Selena is such a survivor- she has a quiet and stable strength that is a wonder to behold. She’s beautifully broken, deeply wounded by her past, but she refuses to be totally lost to it. And the love between her and Keanue is earth shattering- authentic, consuming, and intense. He’s her safety. Keanu stole my whole heart- one of my fav brothers if not my fav. He’s protective and alpha, but he’s also patient, understanding, respectful, and SO giving when it comes to Selena. He listens to her, lets her guide their progress- he reads her almost like her every heartbeat is his own. And truly, perhaps it is- they are truly connected in their souls. Their partnership is just stable and healthy- the way they listen and understand each other, the way they support each other's' needs- gah, it warms my heart. These two grow together so beautifully- they love each other intensely. They make mistakes, but they work through them- they find a path to one another. My heart ached for them and cheered for them- their love filled my heart up with hope and admiration.

I knew I’d get my Kennedy angst, some suspense and drama, but even then this story still surprised me. This one had so much soul- a deep emotional center. Siobhan gets me every time- but Keanu may be one of my all times favs.
