Review – Meant to be Different by Amelia Foster @afosterauthor #romance

Synopsis

As a teen, I had my life figured out: graduate and make my dream of being a bull riding champion a reality. That is right up until the goth girl transferred to my school. Georgia laid the snark on as thick as her eyeliner, but I saw through the toughened façade and fell for her. Hard.

She was willing to give up her own dream to follow me as I pursued my passion, but I couldn’t let her do that. So, I made the hardest decision of my life…and walked away.

It’s been twelve years since I left home without her and the all-grown-up Georgia is just as feisty and fiery as she was back then. It’s clear she has no intention of making redemption easy for me. Thankfully, I’m a patient man who knows what he wants. I’ve never stopped loving her, and I know she feels the same.

Back then I was a rhinestone cowboy, and she was a dark angel, complete opposites, yet we fell in love anyway. We weren’t meant to be like every other cookie cutter couple, we were meant to be different.

 

 

Review

I enjoyed the first book and this one was just as enjoyable!  This time the story focuses on another Carlisle brother, Wyatt.  He is a handsome bull riding rodeo star that has decided to open up a school to teach other men (and maybe women?) how to ride a bull.  And who should he run into when seeking some guidance on promoting the school?  His one and only love, Georgia aka Gigi aka Dark Angel.

I really like how this story goes back and forth between the past and the present sharing the backstory of these two, the ups and downs, and what they meant to each other.  They were just teenagers so of course, true love did not run smoothly due to mistakes on both of their parts.  But the sparks are still there when they are brought together by chance and Wyatt is determined to not let Gigi slip through his fingers again.

I enjoyed how he asked his brothers for help and some were understanding and others were a bit flippant.  Just wait, the flippant one will get his due I’m sure.

There are some great lines between the two (and sadly I didn’t mark any while reading to share with you) and you can definitely feel the heat between the two once they let their guard down and give in to the chemistry between them.

We give it 4 paws up and await future books about the Carlise brothers.

 

About the Author

Books, coffee, and chocolate make up both the heart and body mass that is better known as Amelia Foster. She has been a lifelong lover of the written word, both as a reader and an author, and completed her first manuscript at the ripe old age of five complete with illustrations. Sadly, her art was a medium that never improved over time although thankfully her writing has.

From sweet to salacious the only requirement Amelia has in books she reads – and definitely in the ones she crafts – is an excessively satisfying happily ever after… and then a little bit more.
