SYNOPSIS:A chance encounter. An undeniable connection. An unimaginable twist of fate.
Kailey’s life is crumbling. Her best friend and sister, Jen, is dying, leaving her young family devastated. With little hope of saving her, Kailey is forced to face a reality she never expected.
Trey’s life is fun and carefree. He loves the girls, his drums, and his friends. That’s not to say he isn’t continuously plagued by a difficult decision made years ago—one that changed the course of his life.
Despite the connection they make when their paths unexpectedly cross, Kailey knows her life has no room for anyone else right now. But regardless of how many times she pushes him away, Trey only fights harder to make a place for him in her life and in her heart.
Trey thought he knew heartbreak, but he had no idea until life gave him a second chance, only to snatch it away just as fast. This time he’s determined to keep his place in the life of the ones he loves.
Is there such a thing as fate? If so, can Kailey and Trey hold on to one another long enough to discover there’s no such thing as a chance encounter?
REVIEW:
***ARC was provided by author in exchange for an honest review***
The Invisibles Series just keeps getting better and better. I didn’t think anyone could surpass Brady for me, but Trey managed to win my heart even more than Brady. Why is it that the reformed manwhores always do it for me;)
“’You’re everything…everything I didn’t know I wanted, but everything I’ve needed.’”
Trey Michaels…what a fantastic hero! He had watched Brady and Grant find their other halves in Sadie and Jessa, but he never thought it would happen to him. He’d been hurt in the past, and he wasn’t willing to risk that kind of pain again, so he went from girl to girl without attaching himself to any of them. But all of that changed when he met Kailey at the airport headed to Colorado. They go to the same school, but he’s never noticed her before. At first, for both Trey and Kailey, it’s only supposed to be a week of fun…emotions are not supposed to factor into it; they both have their reasons for needing this escape and never expected anything to come from their time together, but feelings do develop, and both Trey and Kailey find themselves wanting more. The problem is no matter how much Trey tries to show Kailey that he’s all in…that he’s not going anywhere…that he can be trusted with her heart, she’s holding herself back because Kailey’s life is not really her own, and she doesn’t know how to fit another person into her life who needs her because she’s barely holding it together as it is.
Kailey Reynolds…she’s not your typical college junior. At twenty-two years old, she has suffered incredible loss and continues to face hardships. Trey breathes life into her, but her life doesn’t get any easier; in fact, it spirals out of control and leaves her empty. Kailey doesn’t want her life to affect Trey in any way, so she pushes him away and runs. Will Trey push back and make Kailey understand that he’s with her no matter what, or will he allow her to keep running, going back to the life he had before her? Can the love they feel for each other overcome the loss and devastation that seems to surround them?
Let Me Love is definitely a tear jerker. There were many times as I was reading that I had to stop and regroup…afraid to keep reading because I didn’t want to have to watch Kailey and Trey face anything else. Kailey is such a dynamic character. She’s this strong and selfless young woman who has so many people who depend on her, and she gives of herself freely, but she has nothing left for herself until Trey, but even then, she doesn’t want him to feel like he has to stay.
The writing is flawless and captivating; there’s never a lull in the book because it’s consumed with extremely well written characters and a rich plot. The dual points of view add to the quality of the text because it’s important for readers to understand both Trey and Kailey and what they think and feel as they go through each and every situation. Also, I’m so glad that Michelle Lynn brings all past couples into the new books because it’s great to catch up with them, and they are so much a part of each others’ lives that they need to be there. I can’t wait to get some more glimpses into Kailey and Trey’s lives as well as the other two couples in Dex’s book!

EXCERPT:
I curl my knees up to my chest, shivering, my face glued to the couch. I peel my mouth away from the leather, wiping the drool as I sit up. Shit, it’s cold in this state. Staring at the practically empty bottle of Jack sitting on the coffee table, regret hits me. I’ll be useless for the rest of today. That is, until I can drown myself into another bottle tonight.
After I stand up, I attempt to steady myself by holding my arms out, like a toddler on a balance beam, willing the room stop swirling. “He’s down here,” Dex screams up the stairs.
“Shit, quiet the fuck down,” I tell him, and he laughs boisterously. Jackass!
“What the hell, man? We’ve been searching all over for you,” he says, plopping himself on the couch.
“Well, you found me,” I say, sitting back down, grateful for the excuse not to move for the time being.
“You got to get it together. We’re going to that party at Sam’s tonight. Screw Kailey, there’ll be plenty of girls begging to have your dick tonight.” Dex’s attempt to pull me from this funk, only reminds me of who Kailey thinks I am.
“Shut the hell up, Hulk.” Brady smacks Dex across the back of his head. He tosses me a bottle of water and sits on the other side of me.
“Just because you and Grant have gone all in, doesn’t mean the rest of us want one pussy for the rest of our lives,” Dex adds with humor in his voice.
“Grow up,” Brady says and picks up the nearly empty bottle in front of him. “If this,” he waves it in the air, “and fucking a different pussy every chance you get is being single, then I’m more than happy where my dick lands every night,” he finishes, setting the bottle back down.
“Save us the whole commitment is the best speech,” Dex banters back.
Brady stares Dex down in annoyance while all the back and forth makes my headache a little more intense.
“If she has you doing this, she must be worth it.” Brady cocks an eyebrow at me, and I stare back at him, already recognizing he’s right, but no way in hell am I going to admit it to him.
“Shit,” I mumble, and Brady drones his fatherly know it all ‘uh huh’ under his breath. Cocky bastard. Standing up, I take the steps two at a time. Right before I reach the top, I hear Brady and Dex talking.
“You give shitty advice,” Brady tells Dex.
“Fuck off, Mrs. Sadie Miller,” Dex says in return. “He’s gonna become pussy whipped, just like your ass.”
“And believe me, he’ll be happier,” Brady adds. As I reach the main floor, I pray Brady’s right.
