Then the sudden psychic scene with a message from the dead ex that allows her to officially and magically move on. The rain clouds even parted, and she was bathed in sunlight.

I wanted a fresh start, to follow a new dream that I had to find after I lost Elijah. Moving to New York was the best thing for me. I had it all planned out. New Friends, New Job and a New Adventure. And a new adventure I had. My best friend’s dad. It was supposed to be a taboo fling… but it was so much more. We were tied together by more than a mutual connection. It ran deeper than blood. The thought of starting over again petrified me, but here I am, ready for a new beginning and the new adventure I craved, it just wasn’t the one I had planned. Dear Heart, you screwed me. [117]…more Dear Heart, You Screwed Me by Ashlee Rose – eBook Details I think the angst was over the top considering it was mainly due to age and Reese being friends with his daughter Connie. But Connie isn’t even that close with her dad, and she gets over it in like a day. And then they still feel like oh it’s the right person wrong time, we can’t be together! Why not? I didn’t really get it. I thought the biggest reason was because she upset about her dead boyfriend Elijah, but that was already kind of resolved.An age gap / best friend's dad romance? The tropes could not get any better for me, they are two of my favourites, but they fell short. Nothing about Killian presented as a man nearly twenty years older than Reese. His age was literally just a number here - nothing about him was older. How they still argued like teens to his Chris Brown music choices - it just felt off. Reese takes a job across the pond in NYC with a PR company. It's there that she meets Connie, a bubbly, lively woman who shows her the ropes of the city. They form a tight bond. One night Reese needs to escape her past and present. She heads to the bar, where a man K buys her a bottle of champagne. Little does she know they will cross paths again very soon. Do you remember where I mentioned about the heart transplant? Well, juicy detail… Read the book to find out, you will be internally screaming at how cute the words that follow are. I despised Adele, even more, when Reese heard her on the phone with someone, laughing and saying that she was going to get rid of her. All I wanted to do was enter my Kindle and flip her off, but Reese did that for me. It was a risky move but with Reese's personality, you expected it and again I wasn't annoyed that what I expected actually happened. Reese moved in Killian while they both were trying to stay away from each other, you knew it was futile, but I could t get enough of how the sexual tension was pouring off the written words. A love story between two teenagers: Reese and Killian. employee-employer romance. Romance centred on the father figure. Numerous styles are represented.

i just loved how the ENTIRE story was connected. they were literally meant to be. the beginning to the end. everything. connected. The tragic beginning for Reese with losing Elijah really set the tone of the story and instantly showed you the kind of person she was. Especially with her moving to New York for a job opportunity and a fresh start, showed she was strong and I liked that as it described her so well. Knowing that she was alone in New York, you also knew it wouldn't be sunshine and rainbows which had it gripping right off the bat. In 2018, she decided to try her hand at writing, a few months later Something New was published. After vowing to finish the Entwined In You series and leaving it at that, Ashlee got the itch to continue and has many more romance novels up her sleeve. And then the twist with Adele… I needed more information. Killian says she’s not a big deal, but they had a child together and were obviously in each other’s lives for 21 years. And he never says when they stopped sleeping together? He says he hasn’t since he and Reese married but does that mean they have been for all this time?? I don’t think Reese was properly curious/jealous about this, but maybe that’s just me. I would’ve felt better if she was in the story, but her and Killian hadn’t been together since Connie was born. (Also Adele gave her up for adoption… so it’s not like Killian still even had to see her? He said Connie was their tie together but she’s not a part of Connie’s life *at all* so why would he still need to see her?)Killian wasn’t really my favorite hero, and I felt like he got away with a lot of mistakes just by using sex, so that got annoying after a few times. I think my main problem with him was that he used his relationship with a character that he had a (sexual) past with whenever him and Reese weren’t talking. I do appreciate how he handled Reese telling him about her past heartache, and he was your typical possessive, jealous boyfriend, which I love btw. But I wanted to throw my kindle after reading the gender reveal/birthday party scene. Yet another thing he ultimately gets away with. In the end I do believe he redeemed himself, I just wish he had to have done more groveling.
