When I received the blurb for Maybe Ever After I already knew it was something I wanted to read. Very few tropes get me as excited as friends to lovers so when it landed in my Kindle I opened it up and started to read.

It started off pretty good if a little immature for my tastes. Okay not immature but just the characters felt a lot younger than I was expecting but still, the story started off with a lot of promise. That first chapter was AMAZING and it totally made me curious to see how nerdy & incredible Brynn and the secretly pining away for years Easton got to this point.

I loved the characters individually and their friendship was pretty fantastic.

BUT…

The overall story left me wanting more. After a while I started to feel like I was watching high school BFF’s trying to figure out their mutual crushes. Maybe Ever After was well written and engaging but there was something that didn’t fully click with me. Maybe the ending wasn’t all that satisfying and that’s why but my excitement at the prospect of Brynn & Easton was a lot more than my excitement at the reality of them. There were parts I really really enjoyed and others were not so much, hence the 4-star rating.

Excerpt

Real moments were scarce.

Wait, let me rephrase. Important moments were scarce. You know the ones. The ones that defined your life and shaped you into who you were always meant to be. Or who you always wanted to be.

That was the beauty of rarity. It forces you to look at your life from new angles – makes you appreciate the struggle you’ve endured before.

As I caught my breath, the delicious heaviness of Easton on me, I knew I was having one of those rare moments that would forever influence my life.

Easton pushed my hair back, his touch featherlight. I couldn’t understand how he could be so forceful – so strong – one minute, taking everything he could, and then so soft the next. Easton Cole was an enigma and I desperately wanted to know more.

“My sweet Brynn,” he whispered in my ear, again and it sent shivers through my body.

I was his.

When he looked at me like that . . . I couldn’t breathe.

He settled between my legs and I hummed with contentment, happy to have him close, comfortable enough to never let him leave.

The alarm on his phone began to ring and our reality smacked me in the face. “What happens next?” I asked in a small voice, feeling even smaller. I didn’t want to leave this room. I didn’t want to pop our bubble. I liked it.

Easton reached for his phone and silenced it. “We go home.”

I blinked, unable to say anything. He didn’t answer my question. Not really. His response was far too literal for my taste, but what was I to do?

So, instead, I kept quiet, watching the sun pour into our room, Easton’s skin turning a beautiful bronze color.

After a while, we broke apart, each of us getting dressed in silence. He stole sweet glances as I piled my hair onto my head and I snuck a few peaks as he brushed and styled his hair in front of the mirror.

Euphoric and sad, I teetered on the brink of begging him to stay here forever. I had no idea what kind of future we faced on the other side of the hotel door.

But my mother’s words rang in my ears, reminding me to take it slow.

Live in the moment, darlin’ girl. Don’t forget to exist in the present while you’re waiting for the future.

Once our things were packed and ready to go, I took a moment to look around the room – our safe haven where so many truths were shared.

I’d forever remember this hotel and the way the room smelled. The way the sheets felt against my skin and the sounds Easton made in my ear as we made love.

I’d remember all of it.

But what I’ll remember most is the way Easton looked at me and the way he made me feel without using any words at all.
