Review: Won't Miss You by Lilian Monroe

Won't Miss You Won't Miss You by Lilian Monroe
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I received this free eARC novel from the author and Wildfire Marketing Solutions.  This is my honest review. 

My rating is really 3.5 stars, but since I can't do halves...  I liked this book for the most part.  I love how dedicated and loving Rae is, I love that she put aside everything in her life to help the ones she loves, and I love the little town they found.  

What really bothered me was Benji's reaction to Rae, at the beginning and toward the end when he jumped to the wrong conclusion.  I get he has issues from his father, but I just don't understand how he can make assumptions without talking first.  Communication is key, and Rae was really trying to explain the situation, but he wouldn't let her.  And instead of saying what he was really thinking, he just closed up and put up his wall.  I don't know how they forgave each other so quickly, and the lack of communication was what led to the rating I gave this book. 

HOWEVER, like I said, I loved Rae, I loved Sarah and Lucy and Roman.  I did enjoy this story, I just wish the two main characters were more open with each other.  I felt like they didn't really get to know each other on a personal level and then things sort of exploded for a little bit. 

I'm glad I got a chance to read this novel and this is my first book by Lilian Monroe.  I'm hoping to read more of her stories in the future!
