Synopsis:

Mira and Kylee meet Danny and Skylar during freshmen orientation, their first week of college. Two sets of best friends embark on a new adventure together, forming life long bonds. Mira and Danny are looking forward to their future as husband and wife. 

Everything is going according to plan, until tragedy strikes them on graduation night leaving three broken people to pick up the pieces. Skylar has always stood in the background, watching his best friend begin a life with the woman he’s always been in love with until he can no longer keep a distance. 


Right when Mira thinks her life is back on track it spirals out of control. What if everything you thought you knew was nothing more than a mirage?

Review:

*Warning spoilers ahead*

Ahhhh! Seriously. This book was...Okay so it starts off and Danny, Mira's fiance, was just killed in an accident. Mira and Danny were riding a motorcycle and crashed. Mira was injured and Danny died at the scene.  Mira has a hard time dealing with Danny's death and Skylar helped her move on. You can see how much Sky loves her, and has since he met her, but she is with Danny. I know that can't be easy, but man. Then Sky and Mira have a night together and she hurts him afterwards by calling him Danny and he acts out and they don't see each other again for a year.

So they meet up again after a year and they both obviously care about the other still and eventually they work everything out and move in together and everything is great. They spend a great night together, Mira falls asleep. She wakes up the next morning and...is in the hospital.  It has been 7 weeks since the accident, Danny is still alive, and she is in love with Skylar. I was just like really??? Really? I just read this whole stupid book and it was all a dream? Really?? It was just a bit shocking and I think it upset me so much because I was enjoying the story so much. I was happy Mira and Sky had worked things out finally. Ugh.

So she wakes up and really loves Sky and need to be with him, but he just can't believe it and doesn't want to hurt Danny like that. I can understand his feelings. For years he has been in love with Mira and she has been with Danny that entire time. So should be really believe she changed her mind in a dream? Well that is the end of this book, wait for the next one to find out. I am off to read that now. I am not sure that I will like it. I mean if she stays with Danny while honestly thinking she is in love with Skylar....we shall see. I am not sure how to rate this one. I enjoyed it up until the end when she wakes up.

Rating: 3/5

Best of 2019

If any of you are following along then you may have noticed that 2019 was not the most consistent year for me. I have been posting less and less and I finally came to the conclusion that I need a break. A break from writing reviews. A break from reading things I have to read to review. A break from being on a schedule and blogging, at least for a bit. I will still update my Goodreads with ratings for books I read, maybe a line or two about the book, but I need a break. I need to not have the stress of getting things read and posted and all of that. It has become something I don't enjoy so if I am ever going to get back on the blogging train I need a break. So I am not sure I will be posting in 2020. I will see how it goes. Life got super crazy (in a good way!) in 2019 so I also haven't had or wanted to carve out the time to blog. I am still reading books by authors I love, but this way I also can fit in more books by new to me authors. Or read what I feel like, what I am in the
