MY REVIEW- Great Story 

I loved it all. This was my first venture into this series and by this author. I loved it all. It was heart wrenching,  loving, funny and Lily and Atlas were the best. I even loved his name, Atlas. Special and outstanding just like he was although after his harsh non-upbringing he didn't see himself that way at all. He was kind and confident and successful in his own ways too. He didn't step on people to get his way. Unlike Lily's former, trying to control her ex Ryle.  Hated him and don't think he'll ever change. Although both Lily and Atlas hope so for Lily's daughter's sake. So does Rylie's sister, who was the best !

Surprises abound in this story and kept me on the edge of my seat. They both SO deserved to finally get the love that they had been looking for. I teared up when it got to the point of the story about how violently Lily & Atlas got separated as teenagers.  The Lily's Journals were a tender, gut wrenching surprise that I enjoyed reading. This author is so in touch with feelings and getting them across in the story. Even the not so fun ones ! Tenderness kicked in again when it came to Atlas and Lily's little girl. I also teared up about the Tattoo kiss. 

Yes I started the story at the end but I don't regret a moment of that ! It was hilarious at times Too !! I always love that in a book. 

Thank you Hoopla and Colleen Hoover for the best emotional story that I've read in a long time !!!
