This post is adapted from that. no remuneration was exchanged and all opinions presented here are my own unless otherwise noted.I love Ruthie Knox!  Her books just make me shiver with delight. Some are so hot in a very romantic way, I make my husband read them and take notes on the romance section.The road trip love story is really beautiful and really becoming emotionally adult while staying true to yourself is important.  What Ashley and Roman learn about themselves and the people who raised them, or loved them, or helped them is life altering.  There are no mysteries, no magic: just the imperfection of family (biological or created) and connection.I love how throughout the couple worries about the speed of their relationship. But, "the road trip" is like the hero’s quest whether it is for the grail or to save the maiden. And the intensity of the quest can bring people closer together in a very concentrated way.Speaking of series, this was originally to be released like a TV show – in series, with episodes. The first went like that but the second season, discussed here, is releasing all at once.  And, they really are serial and need to be read in order.I VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND Ruthie Knox’s ROMAN HOLIDAY! It’s available as the first and second part separately or as the entire serial in one fell swope.
