A single glance. A fleeting moment. A solitary touch could make everything worth it. This was my breaking point. This was where I lost myself completely. I did the only thing that made sense. The only thing I had left to give. I begged her…To take me with her.Book 2: The Conclusion to The Pierced Hearts Duet
Amazing.. Author M. Robinson completes the Pierced Duet and what a way to end. Aiden is full of guilt but little by little Camila shows him and his children that it’s ok to love again and be loved. Camila tries to run but Aiden refuses to lose her. Through this duet Camila is the the one person that can help heal the broken and shattered hearts of Aiden Pierce’s family. I was so pulled into this storyline and how it draws you in heart and soul.
Dang you M!! I’m happy and sad at the same time with how it concluded. Your heart is full, but sad and our Queen of Angst didn’t hold back in this duet. Choosing You is book two in the Pierced Hearts duet so you must read Choosing Us first. Choosing Us was full of heartache and left us gasping for air at the end and we couldn’t wait to get our hands on this book to see what transpired. Oh, don’t get me wrong this book is full of heartache, but the suspense of Bailey kept you turning pages to see what happened and if Aiden would ever come around with his kids again. Aiden never imagined that his life would turn out the way it did, but there’s a twist that is dropped on us! Yes, you will see the light and think why I didn’t see that coming when it was hiding in plain sight to us. Loved it!
Aiden is a shell of the man he was. His family is now broken, and Journey feels the wrath due to this. Let’s not forget how Jackson and Jagger feel either! Speaking of the kids. Oh my! You will love them, want to hug them and put some pepper in their mouth. HaHa The antics given to Camila are funny, but I love how she gives it right back. Speaking of Camila, you will love her from the get-go, but at times you think she may have marbles in her head for putting up with the household. In the end it was worth it though! Dante was hilarious and I loved seeing Noah and the rest of clan.
You will see why the connection was so strong between all involved and see clues that were being left in plain sight to get answers and closure. I would love to go into more detail about many things in this duet, but that could lead to spoilers so I’m going to say just grab this duet and read it cause in the end you know Monica may have Pierced our Hearts in many ways, but your healed heart gets you a new tattoo showing you that your destiny and your Journey may not go the way you expect it too, but that is life and fate will lead you when the time is right. Without pain there is no love! Oh Jackson! Oh Jackson! If we thought you were a little s#%t in this book I can only imagine how much worse, it will be. You better take a Harley (haha) and run as fast as you can!
I have been put through the emotional wringer with this duet. The pain, the passion, the slow burn, the turmoil this book had everything thrown at it. Not to mention the secrets, lies and twists this author manages to pack into her stories.
The love story of Aiden and Bailey just had my heart shattering into a million tiny pieces when the whole story was revealed. I felt just as tormented as Aiden did when he found a new love. Whilst Camila was the light to Aiden’s dark the pair were well suited. The love she showed the family was heart warming and glued my heart back together. I’m glad thy found their HEA in the end.
I still feel a little conflicted but everybody deserves a second chance at happiness! Oh at what a closing line… I can’t believe she did that. Again!
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.
A single glance. A fleeting moment. A solitary touch could make everything worth it. This was my breaking point. This was where I lost myself completely. I did the only thing that made sense. The only thing I had left to give. I begged her… to take me with her.
Choosing You is the second book in the Pierced Hearts Duet. You have to read Choosing Us first or your going to be lost.
Choosing You picks up right where Choosing Us left off. Finally my heart could come out of my throat. You already know that your reading about a broken family and the Nanny that was starting to make the kids feel somewhat normal again. Until the very broken Dad Aiden walks in on her watching his wedding video and loses his mind. He accuses our sweet Camila of all kinds of horrible things. But you see the truth is that Adien lost everything as has to learn that it is ok to live again. I so don’t want to give anything away. This story is absolutely amazing. You will not be able to lay it down. I would actually give it more than five stars if I could. I laughed and swooned and was on the edge of my seat waiting for what I wanted to happen to happen. This book is filled with just how hard life can be even if you think you have it all figured out. Children who have suffered and lost like they never should at such young ages and learned one of the hardest lessons in life. A Dad who needs to be a Dad Again and an Nanny that is their saving grace. I swear I did not want this book to end. I could have stayed in this world that M Robinson created for forever. There isn’t a thing that I didn’t love about this book. While reading I knew that there was going to be something major going on with Jackson and Harley too and I am so excited that we are getting their story. IF that wasn’t going to happen I think I might have cried from sadness. I so can not wait. This is a duet that you do not want to miss. While I love M Robinson and her dark and dirty writing this Duet has blown me away. It will go down as my favorite of her and will be one of my best reads of 2019. I am so in love with it I could dive back in right now and read it all over again. That’s when you know you have read something absolutely amazing!!!!!
I was a mess just thinking about starting this book and finishing this duet, and I was right to think that way! I needed answers and couldn’t wait to dive in and get them. So yes, you’ll need tissues, but don’t worry because I also laughed out loud and swooned too.
This wasn’t an easy review to write when you don’t want to spoil it or give any details away! Trust me that this duet is a must read. The intensity of feelings from the characters in this story radiated off the pages and into my heart, making me feel every little thing right along with them. Walking every step of the way through this heartfelt, heartbreaking and heartwarming journey of love and healing had me crying tears of sorrow as well as tears of joy.
Going into this duet, my feelings were somewhat divided and I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel about the outcome, but I should’ve known to trust M. Robinson!
CHOOSING YOU is the 2nd book in M. Robinson’s ‘Pierced Hearts’ duet. Book 2 picks up where book 1 epically left off.
I’m not going to give any spoilers but let me say this book just did me in!!! I went with the full rollercoaster ride of emotions with this book- sobbing, swooning, yelling, screaming, laughing, again- sobbing…oh and sighing and just moments of just utter feels.
Am I thinking too much or trying not to feel the emotions that Ms. Robinson has beautifully written? When you read Aiden, (Bailey) and Camila’s love story then you will understand. Words escape me because this story is so amazing. The chemistry, passion, angst and drama will capture the attention the reader from start to finish. I can’t wait to read the next episode with the secondary characters from this duet. Truly touching and emotional read!!!
My Rating: 4.9 stars ********
This series will have you emotionally drained. It is one that will be talked about for months. The story will keep you engaged to the point where you do not want to stop for anything. I give Monica five stars for writing a story that will stay with me forever. I cannot wait to read Jackson and Harley’s story. Keep them coming you have one fan who will never stop reading your talented writing.
This is the second book in a duet. This part is my favourite because it deals with the present with short glimpses in the past. So in order to read this book, the readers need to have read Choosing Us.
I personally like to review stories in whole when all the books are out and been read. The first part dealt with a lot of flashbacks for Aiden, but after reading this part I know the why of it. It’s a page turner that captivated me until the last page was read. I devoured it.
I loved Camila the best because she’s a strong and caring character. I never expected the twists. Jackson has me intrigued and I can’t wait for his story. Bottomline is this a must read duet.
Duet told in a dual POV with a kickass HEA. I highly recommend this duet.
Choosing You is the epic conclusion of this amazing duet that I could not put down,
If you’re familiar with M’s stories think Good Ol’ Boys feels, but on a whole other level that I could not get enough of. If you haven’t read her books yet , jump on in and enjoy the ride. Aiden has stolen my heart!
You need to read this book for Journey, Dante, Curtis and Jackson alone. Monica created a masterpiece with this story that exudes heartache, passion and unwavering love. This is one of the best duets I’ve ever read read and one of my favorite stories of 2019. M shows us how hope and love collide in a breathless, heart pounding way with this book that will stay on your mind and in your heart long after the last page has been read.
Where do I even start? The Pierced Hearts duet is a must read and one of my top reads of 2019.
Choosing You picks up where Book 1, Choosing Us, ends. And what an amazing, heartfelt journey it has been. The angst, the love, and laughter will have you hooked right from the start.
Dr. Aiden Pierce has got to be the most romantic hero M. Robinson has written ever! Dr. Aiden Pierce now owns my heart.
And Camila was everything you’d want in a heroine. She’s strong, independent and sassy as all hell.
The secondary characters were also amazing, Dante’ will have you literally laughing out loud.
I love M. Robinson’s ability to make you feel like you’re part of the story, feeling every emotion that each of the characters are feeling.
Loved this duet! And I love M. Robinson and every word she gives to us!
Oh the Queen of Angst is definitely back with this conclusion to the Pierced Hearts Duet M Robinson certainly knows how to make her readers work for their HEA, she leaves you on the edge of your seat needing more tissues and lots of alcohol.
Aiden has managed to come level with Dylan as my favourite and that was a tough ask for me, despite me loving her other characters. Dylan has always held my heart but now he has to share it. He is broody and lost but oh how he has you swooning and in love. If only he was real.
Monica has delivered everything I love about her writing, the love, the pain, the angst and the healing. She will certainly put you through the emotional ringer as the emotions are raw and real, but you will not want to put this book down until you have finished it.
This duet is why she has cemented her place in my top 1-click must read list. My unicorn
Omg!! Be still my heart. Wow, I had to take a day to digest what I just read. My heart is still trying to heal. I have to bow down to the queen once again. This talented author always surprises me with her writing style. She has grown to be my favorite author through the years. This book topped everything I have read so far for this year. When this book came out I stopped everything and started to read. I could not stop so I read it all in one sitting.
This book starts off right where Choosing Us ended. Doctor Aiden Pierce was lost when his wife left him. He was a shell of a man but when he meets Camila he starts to see some light. Aiden and Camila are trying to come to a compromise for the children’s sake. They feel a very strong bond to each other but they know the kids come first. Aiden is still trying to figure out what to do as a father. He feels so lost. Can Camila help Aiden find the man she knows he is or will they both distroy each other?
I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all romance, mystery, healing, and a lot of angst. You will fall in love with these characters right from the beginning. These characters have a piece of my heart. I can not wait to see what is coming next.
*5+ Stars*
This may be one of my favorite duets ever!
I absolutely devoured both parts of this amazing duet!
If you’re a lover of angst, you will love this duet! I had so many questions and made up my own theories after the end of book one. I couldn’t read this story fast enough to find out if I was correct and what would happen with these characters I fell so hard for.
As much as I needed my questions answered, I was not ready for the emotional roller coaster I rode while reading this book. The pacing of the ride was so perfect. It was such an easy read but every sentence was impactful to the story and the characters!
I still can’t believe this duet was my first dive into this author’s work. I am going to be rectifying that wrong very soon as I make my way through her backlist.
Grateful to have received a complimentary ARC copy to honestly review.
Holy freaking epicness!!! Choosing You had me reeling! I loved everything about this book. Love , angst, sexual chemistry and laughter! This book had it all. My heart was beating so hard and tears streaming down my face. An over the top way more than five star read!
Wow!!! Not sure where to start!? In the beginning my heart was literally being ripped in two, but as i continued to read a warmth like no other spread! I giggled and laughed! I ached for loss and sadness! And then the most overwhelming feeling took place, one of love and fulfillment!! You know you’ve had your heart captured when you finish a wonderful story with an unexplainable contentment!! Another fantastic book by M. that will take your breath away in one moment ,then fill your heart with joy in the next!! Brilliantly written!! Excellent read!!
I’ve been waiting for the conclusion to this utterly heartbreaking, yet hopeful, duet series and damn it really did not disappoint! I was all over the place and finally got the answers I was not only looking for but also hoping for ‘cuz the first book left me hanging. I seriously don’t know how the author does it sometimes, where she comes up with stories that break your heart but somehow end up healing you too. Although she really ripped my heart out in this second book, there were a few suprises that blew you away and that’s one of the reasons M. Robinson has become one of my favorite authors and she will always be a one-click author for me! If you haven’t read her yet, you don’t know what you are missing 🙂 Once again she blew me away and I really can’t wait to read the next story she comes up with.
Camilla and Aiden are still at odds with one another and the situation isn’t getting any better with everything going on around them. When Aiden seems to be losing it all once again, it may be the one thing that will get him to realise that he needs to do whatever he can to keep his family together. And when Aiden makes an offer to Camilla she can’t refuse, their deep connection will become clearer in a way they both never thought was possible. But will Aiden finally be able to make amends with his past and open his heart again?… And will Camilla finally be able to break away from it all and also break down his walls in the process?… In the end, sometimes there’s a connection you can’t explain and love will find its way back to you even when you think it was gone forever…
Monica Robinson is not called THE QUEEN OF ANGST for nothing! She is a wicked writer who loves to tear the hearts out of her readers and loves their tears….all to make our hearts bursting with love and crying happy tears for her characters in the end.
Choosing You is the the second book in the Pierced Hearts Duet. I devoured Aiden’s story in the matter of hours. I was sucked in and a blubbering mess before reaching the end of the prologue. The angst, heartache, loss, laughter and so many others emotions will pull you right into this story.
I know many of Monica’s readers had formed their own theories as to what the conclusion of Aiden’s story would be like…hell I did too and was so far off base…let’s just say you won’t see what’s coming but it’s totally going to blow you away and your gonna LOVE IT!
Thank You Monica for your amazing words and wicked mind that your readers have come to love! Choosing You was everything you promised and more! This duet is my TOP READ of 2019!!!!
P.S. I loved that we got to see so many of the other characters too in this read…they truly are one big happy family. And I did not see that happening at the end but I am so ready for Jackson and Harley’s story.
I’m full with so much feelings after reading this! M Robinson never disappoints. This was the best epic conclusion. From start to finish I was transfixed into this world, and I truly felt every emotion the characters felt. It was like I was right there along with the ride!
I’m quickly learning not to try and figure out Robinson’s mind. I was left with so many questions after reading book 1. I envision all these possibilities but nothing came close to what I thought. She took this story beyond my expectations. She truly blew me away. I couldn’t have been more happier with how this story ended. My only disappointment is that’s it’s over. I devoured this book but I blame Robinson, I just couldn’t put this down.
I truly can’t wait for more from M Robinson. She truly delivers nothing but the best reading experience. Full of angst and so much emotions. Her characters become family. She’s one of my favorite authors and I fully trust her when she opens me up, she’ll close me back up leaving me better off than when I started!
“Without words, he was showing me the deepest part of him. His oldest wounds. His jagged scars. His regrets. His life… And the damage it all left behind.”
Forget everything you anticipated, everything you theorized, everything you contemplated, because there is no way you could call the way this story turned from the first book. The genius spin on how these characters intertwine melted me to a puddle, left me in tears, and had me grinning so wide that you could probably see it from space. This will take you through an emotional wringer, you feel every feel, and back again, and treasure every second. Smoking hot, mystery abound, you just never know what will come around the next bend, so I couldn’t put it down. It is always time well spent because the story was EVERYTHING. I thank the Author for providing a copy to review.
