Almost Perfect

I discovered Claudia Burgoa about a year ago and instantly fell in love with her writing style. I met the Spearman's in Jackson's story and loved June's Christmas novella. I still need to read Jason's story and his book as well as Hannah's family's series are moving to the top of my TBR. The absolute best part of this book was the letters that Alex and Hannah sent to each other. You got to watch these two completely fall in love but also be taken by surprise by how their relationship had grown in the time that Hannah is away. I love when authors cross over series, even when I haven't read one of them. I want to know so much more about Hannah's family. This book has opened the potential for other characters' HEA and I'm hopeful that there will be so many more books coming.

One of the many things I love about Ms. Burgoa's story is the fresh take on a love story. This story of Hannah and Alex. It is complicated and bumpy and rough around the edges.  It's spans years and just when you hope things are going their way another wrench gets thrown into the mix!  I was cheering hard for Hannah and Alex to get their happily ever after. You have to read this story slowly, you have to sometimes "read between the lines" to really see where the story is going. Hannah is a broken soul.  She has had an unconventional childhood and it reflects on her adult life.  She is strong when she needs to be, almost too strong and too proud to ask for help or a soft place to fall. Alex is just as broken, but his happens at the prime of his career.  He doesn't know what to make of Hannah when he first meets her and the chemistry between them is electric. It was lovely to read about past characters, it was fun touching base to them.  Don't worry, it doesn't detract from the story, it just adds more to the fans that have read her previous books.  But for the first time reader, it's not even a blip on the radar. Well done Ms. Burgoa!! I cannot wait to see what you write next!
