This is the third book in this series and even though I haven’t read the two previous books I had no trouble following the story line It is a wonderful sweet second time around all though is it the second time when you never really left the first time
This is Mattias Van Allen the youngest brothers story he loved Raya eight years before but he was to young and stupid to fight for what he wanted and he allowed her to walk away but he has never gotten over here Now they are working together and once again he will try to prove his love to her So begins a complicated love story as these two try to fight their way back to one another All of the boys have been damaged by their father but maybe Mattias has suffered the most after all he was also contending with ADD and very low self esteem
This is the last book in the Van Allen Brothers series and the one that actually strikes close to my heart having brothers who served in the military. In this book the last brother, Matt has come to a hero’s welcome after serving in the Army. He left behind his ex girlfriend Raya who is now his boss. Ain’t those that a kick in the pants. I loved this book. The characters and story line and for me it rounded out this family.
Free Me is the third and final book in Van Allen Brothers series by Kimberly Ash. The story has come full circle each one about the Van Allen boys. Here is Matt and Raya’s story. From the start of the book it pulls you in and does not disappoint.
Matt and Raya have a deep history. Matt comes back after being gone for 8 years in the Army. He left Raya when he needed her the most and now they must learn to coexist with Raya as Matt’s boss. The two must figure out if they can move on from their past hurts and leave their relationship in the past or is there a possibility of starting over.
Thank you to Tule publishing and Netgalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
I love second chance romances and this one was an enjoyable read with an interesting storyline surrounding death and ADD.I liked the chemistry between Maya and Matt,can they give love a second time around,you will have to 1-click to find out.
The entire Van Allen Brothers series (Forgive Me, Forget Me, and Free Me) is an excellent set of complicated love stories. Each revolves around love and the failings of a father.
Free Me covers the youngest brother, Mathias, and the fallout from his leaving the love of his life, Raya, when she needed him the most. Eight years have gone by and they now find themselves thrown together at work. It’s a touching and engaging story of Matt and Raya and their struggles to regain what was lost to them.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
