This is an author who elicits strong emotions in me based on her characters, plots, and the like. The premise of her books aren't often plausible, but the heroes tend to be flawed (which I like). That was especially difficult to get over in Justin at times, but good lord, I loved him. While he was a bitter jerk for the first half of the book, the flashbacks established him as a rock-steady friend.
Ultimately, the development and reconnection in these two won me over, although I felt the book was at times disorganized or like some development was unnecessary. IT didn't stop me from reading it obsessively. Justin's honesty, without being 100% forthcoming was a very nice balance.
I also want to know what the hell is with Ms. Ward's obsession with the men &breast milk
I loved that he was a "normal" musician. One issue I had was that I'm not sure Amelia should've shouldered so much blame for their falling out. The premise was, in this case, utterly preposterous.
Sorry my thoughts are a bit disjointed, I'm tired tonight! I don't know how to tag this book- second chance ,friends to lovers, hate to love. It has all those. I love all those.
