A few years have passed since Sam moved from her small town in West Virginia to Atlanta. She has moved her past of losing her grandmother and the love of her life. And she has set up a new life with new friends and loved ones. She has a great job, a lively best friend named Chelsea. And of course Sebastian is always there for her. Sam’s life seems to be going pretty good. And it seems like she will be able to really develop her romantic relationship with Sebastian. But life throws her a curveball.When Sam allows her first love’s brother, Joe, into her life, she finds out that he isn’t exactly the person she thought he was. And she decides to end that relationship. And she is able to rekindle re romance with Sebastian.And life seems to be getting even better. She has the chance to work with the presidential campaign. This takes her away from Sebastian, but they both work through their two month separation.Then all of the sudden Joe reappears, and everything changes. Sam decides to make changes that nobody understands, and she won’t give the reason.This is a well written book that allows the characters to develop. Sam is an interesting character. She has been through a lot in life. The book also explores what life is like for a young woman in her twenties. It explores how violent events from an individual’s past can affect how they deal with relationships in the future. This book is very lengthy, but as I stated earlier it is well written. And all of the main characters are likeable. In order to understand parts of the book, it would be helpful to read the first book in the series, but it isn’t absolutely necessary. But I do recommend the first book in the series since it was a pretty good book.  If you enjoy love stories, then this is a book you should read.
