Always At First picks up where Not At First ended. ﻿Angel is in love with Kevin, but Roman has declared her to be his and went as far as to ensure it with a child. She's been swept away to Italy and everyone is concerned for her as they don't know for sure what is happening. She's torn between the decision of whether to go to the man she loves and endanger them both or to stay with the man she cares for and keep them safe. Can either of them be truly safe though?The pace is spot on during most of the book. There is so much detail and so many events. You'll be shocked by much of it. I truly don't know who I feel sorry for in this story. You have the glutton for punishment, the unreturned love, a mob boss, deeply scarred youths. Basically between the three of them they are a sad lot, but a hot lot.It's a really good read and you truly don't know what is coming until it happens. They were things left out toward the end. I'm wondering if there is a third book. The ending was a bit rushed for me and didn't seem complete, though in my perspective it seems to elude to another book. I truly hope so as I've enjoyed both books and would like to see where the story goes from here.This book has so many different dynamics to it as Angel is trying to not only come to terms with her life changing, but also wanting to make decisions for herself. I will say the one part was heart wrenching and at first I wasn't sure what was going on. It was a scene that could have been even more powerful if we'd have known truly what was happening from that first moment.This book is better than four stars but I can't give it five yet. If I knew there was a third book to fill in the blanks I would give that extra shiny, but alas there's nothing that I could find stating there is one. This is a wonderful read for a lazy day as the length can be enjoyed in an afternoon or evening.Edit: The author contacted me and there is in fact going to be a third book. Bring on that extra star, it's five now and I can't wait for the next book to come out!I received a copy of this book for my honest review.
