When I started reading this book, I didnt know what to expect. I was hoping for an interesting book, that held my attention, and begged me to keep reading and not put it down. That is exactly what happened. I finished this book in less than 5 hours. I had to keep reading to find out if the Carolyn found love, if she found her place in the world, and if she had success in the classroom.
There were three main stories in this book for Carolyn- her love life, her professional life, and her personal relationships with friends and family. Each story is interwoven into the others. It takes almost the whole book for her to find the right path in all three of her stories.
I really identified with Carolyn. I felt so much compassion for her during her struggles with her relationships and her feelings of insecurity. I cried several times for her while reading this book. I could clearly feel how she felt unsuccessful, unloved, unworthy, and out of place. My heart ached for her and wanted everything to turn out happy in the end.
I have to touch on her love interest, Jeep. He seemed almost too good to be true. You wanted to like him and believe that he was the real thing. I just had to root for them and hope for their happily ever after. Thankfully, he turned out to be the real deal!
The only thing I was unhappy with was that this book had to end. I wanted to keep reading and continue to follow Carolyn on her journey. I am thrilled the author did not leave me hanging and answered any questions I had. Carolyn found her happiness and her place in this world. If there is a sequel, I am all over it!!
