My Review
I totally loved this story of second chances with a story of
TRUE love. It doesn’t matter what you look like it is what is on the inside.
This wonderful author gives you a wonderful plot of lost love that died young
and the women who wouldn’t let go. It turned her into a woman she didn’t want
to be only to bring her back to life when the wrong man came to town turning
her head wanting her to better herself by losing weight and changing her style
never seeing the man who truly loved her all of her life. This is one author
that brings you strong characters who might be a little weak in getting those
they love to notice. The ending truly makes this a 5 star read with the new improved
LilyAnn who takes the bull by the horn along with a few body parts :D . You
heart will break for the people of this small town where news gets around fast.
LilyAnn’s fiancée died in Iraq no one grieved like she
did for some many years she would go set by his grave and talk to him. She went
around her day to day life putting on the pounds and not caring what she looked
like. Every week she hung out with her best friend who lives next door along
with visiting her lost loves grave. When T.J comes to town reminding her of her
lost love from his looks to his truck he gives her a reason to set up and take
notice living a more healthy life and losing those pounds. But in doing so she
gives hope to Mike until she drops the shell and breaks his heart.
Everyone in town felt for LilyAnn’s but not as much
as Mike who has loved her for as long as he can remember. He doesn’t see her weight or her double chin
all he sees is the women he fell in love with. If only he could make her see
how much she means to him. He goes on with his day to day life being there for
her, making her laugh and hoping against hope one day she will open her eyes
put her past behind her and see him. When he thinks she finally has hope shines
in his eye until she tells him it isn’t him. He puts a plan into action to get
the women he loves but is it too late will T.J win in the end.
The author gives you a wonderful plot with amazing
characters that you will feel sorry for, laugh with and almost cry for. The
plot thickens as the author takes you on a ride of lost love, new love only to
find the love you always wanted has been before your eyes. There will be
characters you will not care for and others you will love. You will be shock at
some of the turns and laugh at others along with wanting to hit a few. The
ending makes this story you will be cheering and cursing before you are
through. They author gives you reality like you have never seen it with
a touch of humor with heart that will leave your spirits uplifted and give you
hope for an everlasting love. I am sure once you read this it will touch you as
much as it did me.
