10 Signs You Need to Grovel by Kelly Siskind
5.0
4.5 stars
The first book, 50 Ways to Win Back Your Lover, was hands down one of my favorite books in 2022. to say that I was excited about this book and to be back in the Bower Boys world would not be a stretch of the imagination. I was right in feeling that way because this book and these brothers are special. The storyline is different and fresh. It is not one that I have encountered in romance, and I read a lot of romance. The repercussions of what their father cost them are huge and crippling. Yet, these men take it and still persevere.
The author does an incredible job and making her characters come alive, and that was especially true of Des. I cannot imagine what this must have been like for him and what he lost. In the first book, you could see how the previous years had hardened him, as it should have considering he had an almost picture-perfect life. I loved seeing him process this and soften. I liked seeing how he navigated the fallout of his father's actions. I felt connected with him and felt his anger and his disillusionment. I am not, generally, a fan of Second chance romances but if they were written like this I would be because this was beautiful.
Witty dialogue, fantastic characters, and an authentic and mesmerizing storyline kept me engaged from the first page to the last page. I cannot wait to read the next book. This book will definitely be in my top books of 2023.
