Review: Sweet, diverse read.

As a huge fan of The Space Between series by Victoria H. Smith, I was excited when I was able to read Found by You. Once again, Smith tackles diversity with this story of Roxie and Griffin, although this time it isn't their skin color that creates the majority of the problems. Griffin has an ex that's out for revenge and Roxie has a past that could ruin Griffin. I liked both Roxie and Griffin. Roxie may be quiet but she's tough when she needs to be, I loved how she always stood up for herself. For me, she just had too much going on with her past; nothing felt developed or explored enough. Griffin was a sweet guy and I like that he realized the things he did in his past weren't right. I enjoyed their relationship from the very first page, although I would have liked to have seen more of its growth. It seemed to progress quickly and jumped from one obstacle to the next. Some of the drama in the story was unique; I especially liked the basketball situation. It was extremely refreshing that this couple overcame their obstacles together. While this story wasn't my favorite of Smith’s, it was still a sweet new adult read.*ecopy provided by author in exchange for an honest review*
