A Long Time Coming (Perfect Timing #2) by Heather Van FleetI received a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.This is the second book in the Perfect Timing series but can be read as a standalone.  This story follows the young romance of Abigail and David.  Abigail has spent years yearning for her best friend's brother, all the while keeping up her tough girl faade.  David was the star football player until an accident made all of his dreams come crashing down.  After the loss of his leg, David sinks into a depression with the loss of any hope of Abigail or his dream of playing football for Nebraska.  Follow the two as they battle with their own issues, as well as family issues in a battle to find their own love.The author does a great job of the dual point of view of both main characters after recently graduating high school.  So much so that at times I thought I was hearing my own teen speak to me!  The romance between the two is a slow build and frustrating at times, but you won't be disappointed in the results.  Other than some moderate love scenes, nothing too graphic, and the language I would consider this a YA/NA read.  I did laugh several times; I could play a drinking game based on how many times a character used a certain phrase.  Not only did I laugh I will admit there were tears, any author that can do both has a real talent.While I had a hard time getting started this book is sure to please readers, I hit an OMG moment early on and from that point on it was a quick page turner.  Thanks to Heather for the opportunity to review the book and I look forward to more from her!
