Reaching Out For You by S. Moose was a sweet and romantic story of rekindling a lost love and gaining personal strength to move on past the darkness that can keep a heart locked in the pain of the past. Sophia and Adam had a rocky road with lots of twists and turns to lead them back into the light.Sophia endured a lot of heartache in her life. She had to deal with losing her best friend and love of her life on the heels of a family tragedy. She then was in a very unhealthy relationship that she couldn’t find a way out of. Kyle, the boyfriend, is a perfect example of what a boyfriend should be in public, but behind closed doors, he is anything but. When Sophia finally gets the courage, with the help of her best friend, Erin, to leave him, Kyle makes it known that things will not end quite so easily.Adam has returned to Sophia after four long years apart. He is suddenly back in her life, and she isn’t sure how to go about mending the rift that is between them. Adam wants nothing more than to protect her from anything. Sophia felt that he was smothering her at times, even though he truly was trying to do his best to keep her safe.My heart ached for the pain that Sophia had to go through. I also wanted to reach in and shake her to try to make her see that some things were not her fault. I loved that Adam was there for her unconditionally. I also loved Erin and Connor, Adam’s brother, in the book as well. They showed that friends will be there to support you when you need them the most, even when you want to push them away.
