I expected a life of music.
I expected to raise my son.
It took one look to make everything change.
I never expected happiness.
I never expected to find her.
I never expected to feel desire.
I never expected I’d be a family man.
I never expected to be loved.
I never expected to fall in love.
They say you should expect the unexpected, I didn’t realize my unexpected would be the forever kind.

 

Liezel’s Thoughts:

My Unexpected Forever is the second installment in the Beaumont Series that features  Harrison, the drummer of 4225 West.  He isn’t your typical womanizing, out of control band member that you would have expect him to be. In fact, I  would categorize him as being  “the  total package”-  attractive, oozes sex appeal, talented,  perfect son and brother and also a loyal friend. The most important   thing about him  is his  dedication to his son.  In all things Quinn is his #1 priority.

Tell me, what is not to like about this man? Even with all those characteristics,  Harrison’s love interest  isn’t entirely convinced.  She has all these hang ups  and because of all those issues Harrison is consistently being jerked around.  He tries to be this ever-loving patient man but can he wait around long enough until she is finally ready? Or will be be forced to let go of something that could be a perfect forever.

_______________________

 I’ve said this once before but it is rare that I find a good romance written in the male POV and this is just one of the many reasons why I adored this book.  Since this one was mostly written in   Harrison POV I felt  an immediate connection to his character.

I  thought that the pairing between him and Katelyn was one of the best I’ve seen yet. Their priorities and goals in life just seem to match perfectly. The  passion between these two in and outside of the bedroom (*wink*) is way beyond steamy. Their physical connection isn’t what defines their relationship but it’s all the  more important details that does.

Another thing I loved about this book is how family oriented it was. It not only portrays the dynamics between both of them but also the people closest to them. It did make it feel like it was longer than the usual story but I for one enjoyed reading about  Liam and  Josie and even Nick and Aubrey and how they make that complicated relationship work.

This book sure did illicit so many intense emotions out of me. I felt both Katelyn’s loss and her pain, Harrison’s love and hope and of course annoyance and hatred towards a certain  obsessed person attempting to destroy so many lives.

As a wife and a mother, I have to tell you that this book affected me on so many levels I can’t even begin to explain. It was one of those that  made my bottom lip quiver and my nose all stocked up and I loved every moment of it!  Very impressive writing indeed.

The Verdict:
