RELEASE DAY: Love Me Like You Won't Let Go by Melissa Toppen

 Love Me Like You Won't Let Go
Author: Melissa Toppen
Genre: 2nd Chance Romance
Release Date: February 22, 2019


You never get over your first love. It’s something I’ve heard countless times. Like someone has to point out that your pain will never go away. That your shattered heart will never mend.

Because that’s exactly what my heart did the day I watched Asher Evans board that train- it shattered, splintering into a million tiny fragments that I didn’t think I’d ever be able to piece back together. He was the boy I had loved since I understood what loving someone meant. The one who knew me inside and out. The one who swore he’d never let me go. It’s been six years since that day and even now the memory haunts me like it was yesterday.

I’ve done my best to move on, to rebuild, and for the most part I’ve done pretty well. But all of that comes crashing down when Asher strolls back into town like he never left.

I don’t want to want him. I certainly don’t want to need him. But that doesn’t stop me from doing it anyway. Only things are different now. I’m different. I’m not the girl he left behind all those years ago. I may have been foolish enough to give him my heart once but I won’t make that mistake a second time. Or at least that’s what I tell myself until I’m standing face to face with the one man who has the power to break me all over again.

Love Me Like You Won’t Let Go is a STANDALONE second chance romance.






I feel like it has been way too long since I read a Melissa Toppen book and really, it has, I don’t think I have read her since Crazy Stupid Love (which I loved BTW). I also need to mention that I love her super unique covers! The writing is just what I loved and e Percy from Melissa Toppen. She never fails to add so much emotion to her stories. Love Me Like You Won’t Let Go (LMLYWLG) is definitely packed in with the feelings... they characters will pull at your heart and have you rooting for them.

Asher and Blakey have a past and it’s a tough one. I struggled with Asher. I went back and forth in liking him and wanting to catch him on fire. Blakey is also an interesting character. She’s not exactly strong-willed and I felt like the people in her life almost told her how to live. However, as time goes by they both start to grow and evolve. I never really loved Asher but in the end I really felt that him and Blakey made a great couple. I do wish we had more of them as couple. There was so much of them separate or thinking about the other... I just would have loved a bit more of them. Toppen created a unique storyline out of something that has been so overdone. I liked it and really felt she gave this duo their deserved happily ever after.

I received an ARC of this book with the hope that I would leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that... my opinions.
