I LOVED this book! So emotional, up and down and back up! Ugghhhh…FAN-FRICKIN-TASTIC!!! I did not realize at first that this is actually the second book, and I have not read the first one…yet! The great thing was that it did not matter. Grahame Claire does such an amazing job in the details and the flow of the story that it did not matter at all.
What does matter is that now I am hooked with these delightful characters I am most definitely MUST read Book 1! ASAP!
I received this book as an ARC for my honest opinion, but honestly, I would RUN and READ this book all over again!
This book! Where do I start?! My review can’t adequately express how much I adore the words these women write-each book keeps getting better and better and I don’t know how they do it when their first book, It’s Not Over, was pure perfection. The first chapter of Trust Me starts out differently than their others — fun, flirty and really gives you an idea of the direction this book is going. Holt and Baker are such wonderful, likeable characters with secrets that neither of them want to discuss. They want so much to get on with their lives despite their pasts and as a reader you want them to get their HEA so badly. Add in the secondary storyline (which is another aspect of their books that I absolutely love) and you’re got yourself not just a romance, but some romantic suspense as well! I wish I could give it 10+ stars and even that’s not enough. The character development is outstanding — you feel their emotions, their desires, their fears, their insecurities. These characters are real, imperfect and broken. There’s always an underlying message that love and family make life worth living, make life more beautiful; that family comes in all forms. This was another highly emotional read for me, but I as always, I feel inspired, grateful and thankful after reading anything written by Grahame Claire.
Wow! I don’t know where to start!
This book was a good surprise! From page 1 I knew I was going to fall in love and laugh and cry!
The emotions were all over the place with Holt and Baker’s love story!
It was so beautiful I couldn’t put this book down!
Holy and Baker fight with their terrible past and find a future together in the most emotional way!
I can’t recommend it enough! Go grab Your copy!
This book was well worth the wait. We got to see Holt and Baker in Trish and Andrews books it was obvious from the start that the chemistry was there. Baker took a huge risk in leaving Paths and becoming roommates with Holt. It took a while to finally find out what had landed Baker in Paths and what she had to overcome. She continues to grow throughout the book and become even stronger. Both Holt and Baker had to learn to let go of past experiences to really be able to trust and grow their relationship. Their story is full of ups and downs. Throughout their story we see a lot more of Holts family as well. This book is full of family and forgiveness. You see what family is really all about. This book is definitely a must read!!
Room-mates to lovers, never thought about reading a story along these lines, but I really enjoyed how the two came together and both with a lot of hurt from their past to overcome. Holt is a good man at heart, and Baker is still trying to trust men again. I really liked this book and hope you do as well.
A roommate to lovers romance that is a story about finding trust and love again when both characters have been broken by past relationships.
There may be trigger scenes in this book, as there are interconnecting characters that all share experiences from the same shelter. Baker was in a toxic relationship prior to moving in with Holt and she questions her actions with him a lot. Holt also left a relationship to move back closer to his family, but he isn’t one to settle long term mainly all stemming from his mother leaving when he was a child.
I did find times that I couldn’t connect with either character and I wasn’t sure if it was because this was my first time entering this world or if it was because there was little to no backstory. Either way I’m sorry to say my mind did question several plot points.
Holt and Baker may not have triggered my super happy must read it now button, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t still a HEA story. It is still a story that gives hope, especially one after overcoming difficult odds.
