ABOUT THE BOOK
I dated her best friend in high school. That makes her an automatic no-no. Don’t go there, right?
Wrong.
I can’t stop thinking about her.
We’re friends. Best friends. She’s the one I can talk to. Guy like me, in this life, that’s priceless. Especially since I just was discharged from the military with an injury that’s changed my life.
She’s precious to me, but I can’t go there.
Right?
The only problem, I can’t stop thinking about her.

I have loved this entire series from the very first book to this book. I didn't just love them I have adored them. They were military romances with lots of love and heart and I adored each couple. But this one was a really different one and while I enjoyed the couple, the troupe used I did not like and the issue between them I felt was what ruined this story for me.
Levi was a guy who dated Rebecca in High School. He loved her and saw only her and she loved him as well but when he entered the military she refused to date him and so they broke up and never spoke again. Years later Rebecca's best friend from high school, Mandy, meets up with Levi at her job at Oakside while he is recovering from military injuries and they fall for each other.
Now I knew this trope would be used but I didn't realise the degree that Rebecca would be able to impact this story especially as she never spoke to Levi again and she also is married and happily and is even pregnant in this story. I felt the main character, Mandy gave her too much power and while I understood why, Rebecca was not a good friend and she was a spiteful and bitter woman who had it all and still didn't want her supposed best friend to be happy. She treated her horribly in this story. And Levi in one scene played along and thats why I was not a fan of this story. If I had been Mandy, I would never have forgiven him for how he reacted.
Aside from Rebecca I would have liked this couple a lot. Had it just been a troupe and Rebecca not such a big part of this story I would have really liked Mandy and Levi together. Mandy was a fantastic character in this series and maybe thats why I felt so bad for her in this story. I loved how Noah and Lexi were a huge part of Mandy's life and how we get to see more of them in this story. We even get a snippets of their POV in this story and I loved how supportive they are of Mandy and Levi.
I received a complimentary early release copy of this e-book from the author prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.
