*squeeeeee!!* MichelleS found us a gem I think!!!! And she’s a picky reader, so I’m VERY excited for this. She says:
Just have to share my latest find with you, Maryse! I just KNOW this is one youβd love. You know I am obsessed with all things Roam right now, right? So I decided to give this authorβs other books a try. After all, I read KAβs books no matter what (PNR, fantasy, whateverβ¦) so it must be a WRITER that I fall in love with, right? Well yes-indeed-y. It obviously is, because this book was fantastic too!!!! Itβs called Below Unforgiven, by Kimberly Stedronsky.
Why is it great? okay, so itβs a NA with the typical boy-meets-girl, crazy things happen, we fall in love with the characters βthingββ¦ but thatβs okay β if I love the writing. And I did. Very very much. The price is great too at 3 bucks!
Whatβs the downside? Okay, I admit β thereβs a downside. Itβs a trilogy (my new least favorite book word) UGH!!! But books 1 and 2 are out, so I am hoping the third is on the way soon. But donβt let that stop you. Itβs so worth it. It took me more than a couple of pages, but once I was hooked, I was seriously hooked, just like her Roam series.
Highly recommended if you are in a YA mood and miss C. Hoover type writing (for me anyway). π Another great reading day!!! woo-hoo
About book #1:
Vivian Hale doesnβt cope. She runs.
Spending the summer in small town Pennsylvania, working for minimum wage in the old trailer-turned-video-store, Vivian longs to move on after her world came crashing down around her. Sheβs given up on her acting dream and is willing to do whatever it takes to make enough money to get a place of her own and start over- anything, of course, but sacrifice her pride.
Oscar winning, LA director Keaton Thorne is back home for the first time in seven years, determined to survive one weekend with his family. As best man in his little brotherβs wedding, he has one job- show up with his gorgeous wife and prove to everyone in the small town that heβs better than his father had ever been.
When Keaton makes her a clichΓ©d offer that she just canβt refuse, Vivian tries to protect her heart. She knows the difference between right and wrong.
Between moral and immoralβ¦
Between acting⦠and reality.
One weekend. One man.
One yes.

One quick correction – my bad….. it is not YA at all…. it is NA, I think… new adult…. college age….. I never know all the dang acronyms!!!!
So glad you posted this. I seriously liked this one big time.
Well this answers my question about book 3 I had in other post. This trilogy sounds so good. Adding to my tbr and starting closer to the release date of book 3!! π
Any clue when the last book Beyond hereafter will be released?
