Book Description
Recent
college graduate, Kayla Reynolds was ready to leave the university,
sorority life behind. Leaving her boyfriend of over three years, she
packed her bags and moved four hours south to the big city…New York
City. Bright lights, streets that never sleep, and a business
lifestyle that she yearned to have were all at her fingertips.
Kayla
Reynolds was chasing her dream.
Determined
and eager to make it in the corporate world, Kayla changed
everything- her image, lifestyle, and outlook on life, putting her
career first and her personal life second. That was until her first
day, the first time she got a glimpse of Miles Blackwell. Corporate
CEO and part owner of ETV, and not to mention, incredibly handsome,
Miles Blackwell took Kayla by surprise, stealing her heart as he did.
But
nothing had ever come that easy for Kayla. Life had always seemed to
have a personal vendetta against her, stepping in when everything
seemed too good to be true, reminding herself of whom she really was.
It wasn’t until she met Merrick Drake that she realized when to
stop; when running was no longer an option. For the first time in her
life she had someone she could relate to; someone who wouldn’t
judge- who saw the person she was inside. She and Merrick
connected…on more levels than one.
When
life was too much to handle, they ran.
But
there was only one person that could make Kayla stop for good. Only
one man that made her want to stay.
Would
Kayla finally stop running or would it all be too much to handle?
My Thoughts:
"I'm just not a fairytale ending kind of girl and deep down I think you know that. I hope."Kayla is a runner, when thing gets tough she jets. Kayla just graduate college and want to be more than her past self. She also didn't
Another great book by Ashley Wilcox I've been keeping an eye on her Forever Series for some time now and I really enjoy her writing. One thing I love about her series is that its all stand alone so if you didn't read the other books its ok, you'll miss nothing.
"I was officially closing one door and opening the next. I wasn't sure who or what that next door was, but my past was shut."
I loved the book. I liked how this book had more than one point of view so I got to see what was going on in not only Kaylas mind but Miles and Merrick's as well. If I had to choose a favorite character it would be Merrick he was kind, supportive and was there for Kayla when she needed him no questions asked. I wanted to slap her sister (Wanna know why? Read the book.) I also wanted to hit Miles as well, I mean he was great at first and then I wanted to hit him. If I didn't get his point of view I would probably still hate him. Now I just slightly dislike him. I loved the twist that was in the book I didn't expect it, I mean it was probably predictable to others and I should've known but I loved that I was surprised. I loved that there was also that little bit of what happened to Merrick at the end. Can't wait to see what happened in that story.
Overall I loved the book and think you will too. Highly Recommend. 5 of 5 stars.
Some
may consider me a jack of all trades, but I consider myself well
rounded. I've waitressed, styled hair, answered phones and, most
recently, worked full time as mom to my two beautiful little boys.
Then
there was this book...
Everyone
and
their
brother
started
talking
about
this
book
series
titled
Fifty
Shades
of
Grey
by
EL
James.
I
didn't
really
pay
attention
to
the
craze
at
first,
since
I
wasn't
a
big
reader-
okay,
I
didn't
read
at
all.
But
curiosity
got
the
best
of
me,
so
I
downloaded
it
to
my
kindle.
I
was
immediately
hooked.
I
read
the
whole
series
in
three
days.
Yes,
three
books
in
three
days.
I
kept finding all these great books that I HAD to read (just ask my
credit card!).
Then
I
started
hearing
voices.
Voices
that
turned
into
stories;
stories
that
were
begging
to
get
out
of
my
head.
I
started
writing
them
down
on
scraps
of
paper.
Then
I
transferred
them
to
my
computer.
Before
I
knew
it,
Planning
on
Forever
was
born.
The
voices in my head are still talking, so I'm still writing.
