I started this book and immediately was riveted to the story...I could not put it down. The writing was phenomenal in that I felt like I wanted to move to Boston and immerse myself in that neighborhood, the people, their lives, the shops. I loved that Ani and Sebastian and reunited right from the start and the unbreakable bond that they shared was still as strong, despite the 15 years, scars, unfolding lives, transition to adulthood and tragic events between them.But, lives did unfold and teenagers grew into adults and Ani's life took a direction that was different than what she had planned. And, she willingly and knowingly entered into a life with Jordan, married him and had his child.  But, it seemed like there was no consideration of her marriage and the implications for her child when she reconnected with Sebastian.That is the source of my conflict.  My heart was deeply engaged in this story. I rejoiced for Sebastian and Ani and for Sebastian's burgeoning relationship with Raffi. I loved Ani and her unwavering love and devotion for Sebastian.  My heart was wounded for Jordan, even more so because he was so transparent in his love for Ani and hope for a different outcome for him and her.  I don't know that Ani could have made any other choice than what she did and "The Sweet Spot" was sexy and compelling and enthralling, otherwise...."unputdownable" and just plain lovely.I loved all of the characters, they were so thoughtfully developed and were wonderfully complementary to each other. I can't wait to see how things unfold between Sawyer and Bobby and, please, I hope there is more of and for Jordan. I found him absolutely beautiful.I cannot wait for the next story in this series.
