My heart belonged to Branch and Brooks
Valentine since we were children, when we were all too naïve to know what that
even meant. We didn’t understand that when we became adults, love would change
us. I had to make a choice and when I did, it ripped our bond apart. Brooks
left town, and he took half of my heart with him. It was difficult, but I coped
and planned my future with Branch. I thought I’d made the right decision. I
loved him and I always had.
Brooks showed up to be our best man the night
before our nuptials. After drinks and too much reminiscing, I ended up in bed
with the wrong brother. To avoid the humiliation and the fact that I’d ruined
all of our lives, I left Branch and the only family I’d ever known.
That’s where my story should have ended.
Two years, one beautiful little girl and an
abusive marriage later, I was standing there staring at the man that would
always hold my heart.
The only question was…
Would I give it to him
I’m Katy Michaels and this is my story.

Where to start, 5 stars are not enough…..LOVED LOVED LOVED this book! As a fan of Jenn Foor’s work I was not
surprised that I would enjoy her new release but I devoured it and I think that
this may now be my FAVORITE book from her.
Brooks Valentine…..YES PLEASE!
This book was AMAZING!
I knew at 3% in when the tears started to fall that this book was going
to be an emotional ride. What a ride it
was!
Katy
Michaels + Brooks Valentine = First Love denied!
It seemed as if the universe was determined to keep these to
apart, but they say love conquers all and a love that deep would not be denied,
even if it took forever to find.
Suffering from the loss of her parents, Katy moves in with
her neighbors, her parent’s best friends and into the home of her best friends,
Branch and Brook Valentine…twins.
"Kat, have you asked yourself how long your going to go on with my brother before you realize you picked the wrong guy?" ~ Brooks
Katy has strong feelings for Brooks, he’s always been her
protector but when it appears that her feelings are not returned she finds
comfort in the arms of Branch. Severing
just about all ties with Brooks when he enlists and set to marry Branch the
world stands still when they see each other again for the first time.
You could feel the pull between Brooks and Katy. He was absolutely the swoonworthy twin. Gentle, kind, caring, protective and smoking
hot!! You could tell that Katy was
settling and trying to make everyone else happy but there were little things
here and there that made me dislike Branch early on and boy did he prove to have
earned it all!
Unable to deny themselves, Brooks and Katy find solace in
each other’s arms and just as quickly as they reunite they are torn apart. That’s where Katy’s life starts to unravel and
fast.
"What if I don't know how to stop loving you? ~ Katy
"You have to." ~ Brooks
"I can't." ~ Katy
Alone in a new town, where no one knows her, she finds that
she may not be alone after all. Her
night with Brooks may stay with her forever.
Enter Bobby…..not a fan!! Did not like him from the start. Maybe it was because I was pulling for Katy
and Brooks . He was too pushy and
determined to make Katy his. When she
finally agreed to spend more time with him it was his opening to claim her and
break her. Don’t get me wrong he had few
“decent” moments but none of his behavior should be condoned by anyone.
The light in the darkness for Katy was “B” a/k/a Brooklyn
Valentine…..her love child. Katy lived with her decision to keep “B” a secret
until she couldn’t anymore. How much loss can one girl take, losing Brooks
twice in one lifetime just seemed absolutely cruel but when the truth is
revealed there is no stopping Katy from getting to him……or is there.
Grrrr……Bobby….ugh…..where’s your pride? He was yet another person determined to keep
Brooks and Katy apart but when push comes to shove…..Katy has finally decided
that she will not allow anyone or anything keep her from Brooks and their
daughter. When the story comes full
circle we are brought right back to where it all began.
"I don't want to be your friend, because I need more than that. Open your eyes woman. I want to be your everything. I always have.
~ Brooks
This story covers such a range
of emotions. Love, deceit (many layers of deciet), longing, heartbreak, abuse, guilt, anger and
forgiveness and did I mention love. This story has soooo many twists
and turns and it kept me glued to my kindle as I didn’t want to miss a minute
of Katy and Brook”s story. Go…..1 ~click this book and take the ride
with Katy and Brooks and experience the awesomeness of Jennifer Foor’s writing!
