I also loved the cameos by Noah and Maya (they're married and have a son by now). As a matter of fact, I would have never thought of a fence being a major factor in anyone's meet-cute (it was hilarious though). I also loved Santi and Chloe's meet-cute. In fact, as soon as I started reading Redeemed, I couldn't put it down! I enjoyed the book right from the start. The way in which the author has written this book is perfect according to me and thoroughly engaging. Let me clarify as well, this book did not disappoint. I loved Santiago right from the start so when I came to know that his book was being released I literally jumped for joy. Lauren if you see this review, please make it happen -p The extended epilogue was so freaking good. The series started getting better and better by each book. Santiago & Chloe's journey to happiness was delightful and I devoured this book. The character development was immaculate.

She’s like the moon who shines bright despite the never-ending darkness.' While people like me shrivel away in the shadows, people like her create their own light. 'She describes her loneliness as a weakness, but I only see it as a strength. After he started to get to know Chloe, his character development topped the charts and he was unafraid of expressing his feelings to her! The way he cared about Chloe and wanted to be the man she deserved was so heartwarming. Sure, he was grumpy, rude, closed off and lost but man, he was total husband material. He could cook, race, fix cars, play guitar, was good with kids and such a good guy in general. She called him out when he did something wrong and gave him hope to be better. Her no lies policy and the tendency to take absolutely no sht from Santiago was what I liked the most about her. There was no wrong she could do in my eyes. She just wanted to be loved and accepted. She was mischievous, determined, strong, supportive, sassy, funny and talented. “Because those who see beauty in chaos also see flowers instead of weeds, and that’s a gift in a world like ours.”Ĭhole was a literal ray of sunshine. Then one lie leads to another and Chole is stuck with Santiago babysitting his nephew for the week, all while having no idea about who he is and why he is so grumpy. Her search for her father lands her up on Santiago's address. Fed up of her mother's constant manipulative behaviour, Chole along with her bestfriend decides to take an ancestory test in which she discovers that her biological father is alive and lives somewhere in Italy. Her mother is a neglectful drug addict who cares about nothing other than constantly asking money from her daughter. If you notice it, then embrace it because that’s what makes us dreamers.”Ĭhloe Carter dies not have everything easy in life.

People only have to believe in it for it to work. What he doesn't expect is a beautiful mysterious woman sneaking up in his backyard when his family is visiting and somehow ending up pretending to be his fake girlfriend by suddenly crashing into his life. Now he's healing in his new house in Italy, hiding away from the hounding paparazzi trying to cover his downfall and anything that reminds him of his old life. Santiago Alatorre suffered a fatal crash three years ago in which he lost a part of his leg which unfortunately made it impossible for him to continue racing professionally.

'I wish to find someone who appreciates my presence instead of destroying it.' They were both lost for so long but finally they completed each other. They go from complete strangers to helping each other find their new paths and discover their feelings. Santiago & Chloe's connection is intense from the moment they meet. I would never get tired of the grumpy-sunshine trope and I hope Lauren keeps writing it because she is one of the very few authors who I trust to give justice to this trope. The book had me enamored and I couldn't put it down though it was lengthy. The amount of domestic and family moments in this were so soft and wholesome! Noah played a really nice role in it and I think I loved him more in this book rather than his own. I was in a real bad mood before reading this book and reading it was like therapy for me.
