What I thought would be just a good romance read for the weekend ended up having me heavily invested in an emotional journey for the FMC Addie and the side characters in MEANT FOR ME by Tay Marley. Romances typically are emotional in some way, but this book digs its nails into you and doesn’t let go. I was hooked from the first pages to the end and kept thinking about it long after finishing. 

I love how Marley let the plot unfold like a mystery - just giving us enough information to know Addie’s secrets as she adapted to small-town life. We learned of her past as we learned of her present, which made you root for her. When twists and reveals happened, it gave them much more of an “oh whoa” emotional moment. 

I can’t review MEANT FOR ME without mentioning Zac Ryan, your new book boyfriend. #Swoon He is the perfect example of why we read books for book boyfriends and can’t find the real thing irl. He has flaws but knows them and works on them. He cares, listens, and is just there for you. Oh, yeah, and he’s a farmhand… so he has very nice descriptions to read about. 

This one is staying on my shelf, and I can’t wait to get feels when I reread it! 

Thank you, FPxWPBooks and WattpadBooks, for gifted book!
