I don't know if you have a room for more book-boyfriends in your hearts - but after reading this novel, despite the population and congestion of awesome, hot, sexy, to-die for men on my list of book boyfriends, I just have to add ASHTON TAYLOR.He plays sports, sings, dances, smart - who wouldn't want a guy who can do almost anything? (well, except for poetry). He loves his family with fervor and put his life, his ambitions, and even his future on hiatus when he was needed by his family when his father died. The moment his father died, his life did a 360 - but he never complained. He stayed strong and became the man that his family needed him to be. He took the responsibilities head on, and made sure that his mother and siblings would be okay. But sometimes, just as when we thought fate had done enough, fate would play a not-so-funny joke that will test your strength, faith and conviction.Cara Hayward was not his type. She was quiet, doesn't have a lot of friends, write some amazing stuffs and doesn't pay him any attention. So why he keeps going back to the library, wanting to see her was something he doesn't really do often. He was used to girls throwing themselves on him. He wanted this girl who seems not interested at him. Can he break through her walls?But it's not only Cara who has walls to break. This awesome man, despite his being strong has a lot of baggage to carry too. He had been taking care of a lot of people for a long time, he's about to get exhausted, but who's going to take care of him then?Cara had experience pain she has not shared with anyone, even with her sister. Mistrust, insecurities and a whole lot of doubt about herself has blanketed her for a long time. No thanks to her mother who had been anything but good to her. Will she be able to let Ashton into her heart and take the risk?Lovely is a story of two broken people, completely different from each other, finding love in the most unexpected times of their lives. LOVELY is indeed a beautiful story that will captivate you. Just as when you thought you have read the best scene in the book, Beth Michele will be surprise you as the story goes.THE ENDING - aw, do you still have to make me cry even though I was almost finished with the novel?? *SIGH* I didn't see it coming. I was hoping for something else, perhaps a miracle. It was bittersweet, but it was perfect.*ARC Copy was given in exchange for an honest review.
