This was a beautiful light hearted read. It was like reading a hallmark movie script. This story was sweet, fun, romantic and different than most reads.
In With Me we are introduced to Kasey who is a hard working, independent, loving, single mother. Lives every day making sure her daughter is taken care and has what she needs. After living a shelter life and having a rough pregnancies, she does everything she can for her daughter.
Joseph is on leave from the military when he runs in to Kasey. Joseph is hard working, love the military and has felt as if something has been missing since high school.
"He turns his head in my direction. His eyes look dark and saddened, almost as if they are lifeless. I can only sit here, frozen and unable to say anything, as I stare back at him. I feel like the blood has drained completely from my stomach. The pain of hearing he's engaged is still stabbing at my heart. I don't know why the news of hearing that he's engaged would make me feel this way. He was never mine to begin with. Ever. But the news hurts regardless"
Five years have past since Kasey and Joseph have seen each other and so much has changed in each other life. Things have changed for them so much since high school. Joseph drove crazy sometime I wish he would pull it together. Kasey, handled change as best as she could. Holding on to her past keep her from allowing her self to moving on with anyone.
This was a great story. I think it was a 1 and million chance that they ended up meet in another state, in a farmers market. This was beautifully written and the I loved the character. This book keep you on the edge of your seat waiting to see if Kasey and would get the second chance happily ever after.
