Midnight Monday goes to Retrace by Sigal Ehrlich!
Why? Well because this book blew me away. It has always been hard for me to choose books that are not from the authors I know and love but blogging has opened me up to so many people and authors. I am happy for this because if not I would have missed out on this amazing book. It literally had me addicted from the very beginning. The beginning was so emotional it intrigued me. It made a strong point since that very beginning. Oh an their encounter! Holy nakedness haha! It was fun, especially hearing it from Reeves. Reeves is official book boyfriend material. I mean throughout the book he is supposed to be the tough guy but his vulnerability shows through, even more so when he is with Nia. I felt like Reeves was more open about himself than Nia was and that's not something that happens in a book. The girl is the one that usually opens up first but I like how in this book Reeves was the one to do it. I love the chemistry between them and it's cute that they both deny their relationship when they so want each other. They say that they are falling deeper into "friendship" which makes me laugh. They so totally have a relationship even though they don't want to admit it. I really loved this book and I think it deserves this title. I would recommend this book to people who love romance and want something a little different from other books.
Description
Nia Martins believes a fresh start will help her leave her traumatic past behind. Moving to a different country, she seeks to shake off her demons by doing the one thing that sets her free from her destructive thoughts – teaching dance. But change doesn't come easy, and all Nia really wants is to take the next breath without the perpetual suffocation that follows. Reeves Mitchell has looked death in the eyes so many times it’s become habitual. That is, until his best friend's life was on the line. When the one thing he feared the most turns into reality, all he can do is pick up the pieces of his loss. As Reeves tries to live with the constant thought of “what if” gnawing at the back of his mind, he persistently and steadily builds a thick wall around himself. Their solitary lives are all they have—until fate brings them together. Nia and Reeves’ new friendship helps make life, shadowed by the ghosts of their past, more bearable. But as their relationship deepens and new, suppressed feelings emerge between them, are they willing to retrace their steps back to where wounded hearts can be broken once more?
