The hallmark of any New Adult/Romance is miscommunication and assumptions. Waiting on My Reason has this in abundance. The last person Melanie expects to see in the bar where she works is Shane, her ex-boyfriend’s best friend and the guy she’s had a thing for since they met. While the first few minutes are promising, Shane’s reaction to her and his accusations begins a storm of secrets, lies and accusations.Shane is back in town for one reason only: to help his best friend get the inheritance owed to him by his grandmother. What he gets is pieces of a story that don’t add up to what he’s been told. Shane eventually realizes Brad didn’t tell him the whole truth and Melanie refuses to tell him anything, she’s so angry about his assumptions.Eventually, through little dribbles that keeps your attention, Shane and the reader learn the whole story. As a result, Shane and Mel rekindle those feelings and a feeling of satisfaction settles over you…until the other shoe drops and the tension ramps up.I have to admit I was flipping pages quickly on this book as more secrets and revealed and the danger ramps up. And I enjoyed the twist at the end. Great writing and believable characters.4 out of 5 starsI received a copy of this novel for the purposes of an honest review.
