I was literally counting down the days to the release of No Regrets.  I was lucky enough to meet the author a few months ago and even joked that this book was meant for me because release day was on my birthday... and what a present it turned out to be!One of the things I loved most about this series and these characters is how real they seemed.  Both Nova and Quinton had serious problems whether emotional or drug related and instead of glossing over this or taking the series in a silly twist that would never happen in real life, Ms. Sorensen laid it all out for us.  I felt Nova's pain, my heart bled for Quinton and all of the problems these two faced and I definitely cried at some point in each book of this series.Honestly, I didn't know whether to expect an HEA or not because of the obstacles these two would have to overcome.  Quinton struggles through rehab and his attempts to make sure he is deserving of another chance with Nova.  Meanwhile, Nova wants nothing more than to be the rock Quinton can depend on now that she has overcome her own past.  But another series of tragic events leads Nova running to Quinton and together they must decide if they are strong enough to finally push past their circumstances and move forward together.The book ties up nicely and in a REALISTIC manner.  I've heard some complaint about the ending not being 'happy enough' or delving enough into the future.  But for me, this was a perfect ending for two imperfect individuals.  You don't go to rehab for major addiction problems and then skip off into the sunset with a baby on your hip a year later.  Keeping that in mind, I was happy to get a glimpse into what I believe will be a happy future for these two characters.  I know there is another book (spin-off) coming with different lead characters so hopefully we'll get a Quinton and Nova update then.This series will go down in my top favorites of 2014, no doubt.  Ms. Sorensen's writing is interesting and even though this is very dark subject matter, the story was a breath of fresh air for me as it's different than a lot of the other contemporary romance on the market.  I high recommend this series, I read each book in one sitting.  Can't wait for Tristan's story!
