My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars
Always
Been You by Lily Miller is a sweet, second chance romance. Livy and Parker were
always meant to be together, they had something special, but in the blink of an
eye Livy’s world is torn apart and she leaves behind the only man that she has
ever loved! Fast-forward eight years and Livy is thrown into Parker’s circles
again when she is asked to arrange flowers for his mother’s anniversary and
literally, we have instant sparkles! But is Livy willing to risk everything she
has worked for to be with Parker and is he willing to change his life in New
York to come back home?
This was
a beautiful story seen through both Livy and Parker’s eyes. Livy came across as
really vulnerable due to her past hurts and she certainly didn’t want to get
hurt again, no matter how much she loved Parker. I loved the moments when she
was at the beach as it gave her such in depth feeling as a character as she
thought through her choices, not only for herself and Parker, but also for the
rest of her family.
I really
enjoyed Parker as a character, he knew that he still wanted Livy and was honest
in how it made him feel when she broke them up. At times, he was a little too
understanding, but it definitely worked for this couple. I also loved Parker’s
family, they offered some great advice and didn’t hold what Livy’s dad did
against her.
This was
such a sweet romance, with some scorching scenes between the main characters. I
loved how in sync they were even though sometimes their lack of communication
was a little frustrating and got in the way of them having their
happily-ever-after a little quicker.
Overall,
a really good second chance, feel good story!
