Forever with You

Starred review from September 7, 2015
Armentrout packs a powerful emotional punch in her fifth Wait for You new adult contemporary (after Fall with Me). Stephanie Keith has just moved to a Philadelphia suburb to work at a mixed–martial arts club when she meets sexy bartender Nick Blanco. Commitment-phobic Nick rescues one of Steph’s boxes from breaking as she’s moving into her new apartment, and sparks immediately fly. After a red-hot one-night stand, Nick doesn’t expect to see Steph ever again—that’s his usual MO with women—and is shocked when she enters his bar. Feisty Steph makes it clear that she’s nobody’s doormat, and that she’ll go wherever she likes. Nick’s reserve slowly begins to melt. Then a series of unexpected events forces both Nick and Steph to reevaluate what they want from life. Armentrout tugs at the heartstrings while delivering an intense, gripping tale.

Armentrout (Fall with Me, 2015) presents an emotional installment in her Wait for You series. Free-spirited Stephanie is starting off with a clean slatenew job, new condo, new city. Everything is going according to plan, and the smokin' hot guy who helped her move in is just the cherry on top. When Nick lays his eyes on Steph, he can't hide his attraction, and lucky for him, the feeling is mutual. After a hot and heavy one-night stand, Nick and Steph are on the same page. Neither has any regrets or expectationseach avoids relationships like the plague. As Steph settles in to her new life, she begins to suspect that something is wrong. Unable to turn to her new friends for help, she seeks out Nick. Bound together by a secret and a future that neither of them planned for, Nick and Steph grow closer until tragedy threatens to break their fragile bond. Armentrout does it again, presenting a fast-paced tearjerker that fans will devour.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2015, American Library Association.)
