Us was a lot more emotional than I was expecting
after reading Him. Which I suppose was pretty stupid of me now that I have gone
back and read the blurb. But then I expect nothing but amazing from these
amazing authors and this book certainly was that.
I spent so much time in tears but they weren’t huge
ugly tears they were just caused because I felt like I was so intimately acquainted
with these characters that I felt every nuance of their pain. I think the fact
that I picked up Us straight after I put down Him meant I never got my head out
of the romance of the first book and this one jumped straight into the real
life of this couple.
I completely understood where both Jamie and Wes
were coming from and despite everything they went through in this book there
wasn’t a time when I felt either were at fault. So I just kept right on loving
them both and feeling like my heart broke for each of them for what they were
dealing with both together and separately.
Like the first book, I literally couldn’t put this
one down once I started it, which made cooking dinner interesting. I feel like
I have to acknowledge the fact I read these books all out of order since I read
Good Boy first then went back and read these two so now I am even more
desperate to get my hands on the next in the WAGs series since those characters
all play minor parts here. Now I have to go stalk Elle Kennedy and Sarina Bowen
some more.
If you haven’t already read any of these books you
need to exercise your one click finger. Check out my reviews here
So it’s no secret M/M isn’t my preferred genre,
infact the very few I have read were either very highly recommended (ie. forced
down my throat) by my friend Diana or were part of a series that I just had to
read and I have loved every one of them. But since I am missing the major piece
of anatomy featured in these books I tend to stick with what I know and love.
But I read Good Boy and met Wes and Jamie and fell
in love with them, I also got hooked on Sarina Bowen and Elle Kennedy that I
had to get more of them. So I went stalking searching for more books of theirs to inhale
and I saw the blurb for this and realised this book was kinda linked and was
set before that one and I had to get me grabby hands on it. Then fate
stepped in and both Him and Us went on sale for only 99c each.
So I one clicked and as soon as it loaded on my
kindle I dove in and was immediately hooked. Firstly I have to rave about the
writing style of Sarina Bowen and Elle Kennedy, individually they are awesome
but together they are epic, so it’s no surprise I loved the book. Their characters
always have such depth.
Reading this book my heart broke for Wes. He made a
stupid mistake and then followed it up with a stupid decision that broke his
own heart. I understood where he was coming from and then Jamie was perfect.
He was so forgiving and sweet and open. It was a major case of love at first
sight. That said I had a feeling it would be since I have a major crush on the
whole Canning crew.
Anyway I am dying to start Us so hopefully this all
makes sense and if not then I guess I should simply say this is a book about first
loves and romance and even if it isn’t your preferred genre it is well worth
reading.
