Stay Here With Me (The Wilder Brothers, #5) by Carrie Ann Ryan


 


Blurb:

The Wilder Brothers from NYT Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan continues with a secret romance that East and Lark never saw coming.

The world thinks I only write songs about my ex-boyfriends.

They study each lyric to point a finger at which man broke my heart—even if I’ve never met him.

Only the man I refuse to write about is the one who is so tangled in my mind that I know I can never be with him.

I had one night with East Wilder, and I know that’s all there will ever be.

He broke my heart without even trying.

Yet now I can’t seem to write a single verse and I need a place to hide while I figure out who I am. The Wilder Retreat will have to be my refuge as the Wilders prepare for, my best friend’s wedding.

And when I’m there, I refuse to fall for East again.

Even if the dark shadows in his eyes draw me in. And the dangers of his past might be the one thing that forces us to finally give in.

 

My review:

East has issues. PTSD, survivors guilt, anger and self esteem issues. But he also has a supportive family a job and a good heart.  

Lark has issues too. She can write and sing about love but hasn’t had much luck with that particular emotion no matter what the paparazzi say.

A one night stand with East has her heart fighting with her mind and she can’t even find consolation in the one thing she’s always always been able to do. Write.

This grumpy/sunshine romance had my heart rooting for both of these lonely hearts. The author shows us how love can hurt as well as heal. I fell head over heals for Lark and East.
