This is the third book in this series but I never read the first part, Hold the Forevers (Lila and Cole), I did read the second book, At First Hate, (Marley and Derek) and this third book stars Maddox and Josie. Maddox is Marley's twin brother and Josie is Marley's best friend. This is an angst filled more than one chance at romance with characters that grew up together and had several chances at dating but who kept getting it wrong. At the start of this book they are more like enemies than lovers and they are forced together while they film a movie. This was a drama filled story and it is told in five parts as we get the whole story of Maddox and Josie's relationship. I really loved the author's story telling style of creating different parts as we get to know the characters. It was an extremely passionate story and I felt all the highs and lows that the characters go through in this story. I loved it so much and I could not put it down. It has passion, love, mistakes, the messiness of love, and lots of drama. I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Why, oh why do I read hers so fast! This was beyond phenomenal! Maddox and Josie’s story was full of angst, miscommunications and heartbreak. But the heat and what is fated makes it so worth it! I loved this second, third and fourth chance story. With best friend brother vibes! Mix in Hollywood and Savannah, GA and you have the perfect homemade recipe for a fabulous book! I could not recommend this more. Read it. Soooo good.

Oh man, this was just what I needed. Angsty goodness. I have been waiting for Josie’s story and just her and Maddox 😍 I finished this in less than 24 hours. Sleep was not happening for me until I finished. There is just something magically addicting about KA Linde’s Coastal Chronicles. The push and pull between Maddox and Josie is exactly why I read KA Linde. It’s her signature angst and I love it. Loved seeing everyone from the previous books as well. Now, counting down til the next in the Coastal Chronicles.
