Until Tomorrow Comes
Nightmares are charming.
From the moment I met mine, he lured me in with sugar-coated words and false promises. Those empty words drained the life out of me until all that remained was an empty shell.
Calling the one person I knew I could count on nearly killed me.
What’s even harder than escaping, is healing. It’s ugly and painful. But laying low in the company of my brother’s only friend? I may have found my safe haven.
When Alan called, asking me to keep his sister safe, I let her in without a second thought. After all, I know a thing or two about getting through pain.
My coping mechanism of silence.
I swore I would never fall in love again, telling myself that I couldn’t be hurt or manipulated if I didn’t let anyone in.
Famous last words.
Love is blinding and comes when you least expect it.
Until Tomorrow Comes is a standalone, brothers best friend romance. Please check TWs before reading.

A very nice romance read and very well written.
I liked both main characters and their journey but it was very predictable.

I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it
Ok taking a break just to mention two things:
☝️I hated that the MFC was listening to a reverse harem audio book and that the scene was actually horrendous 🤢 (And I really hope the author is not actually dropping a hint of a future reverse harem of her own 😖)
✌️ Mikayla Christy usually includes a lot of time jumps and skims on scenes that are actually important.
Other than that....
I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it I loved it
The MFC is a domestic abuse victim who has been through hell. Her brother asks his ex-military best friend if she can hide with him until her husband is found.
The MMC, (who has had his own share of drama with his wife cheating on him with his brother and ending up getting pregnant and actually trying to convince him that it was his), is patient, thoughtful, sweet, considerate, supportive and just the whole package. The perfect MMC.

This was such a sweet and heartwarming read. It was on the shorter side but it was definitely worth the read. I do wish that we’d gotten more from the story but I loved the romance between our two leads and the healing in this book 🥹💗.

This is only Mikayla’s second book, but she is now an auto-buy author for me. This story was fantastic and so different from her previous book (which was a hockey romance). This book had me captivated right at the start. It was beautifully written and literally could not put it down.
Until Tomorrow Comes is a powerful story that focuses on healing, self-rediscovery, and allowing yourself to love again. Both of these MCs experience trauma.
Kat has been in an abusive marriage for a year when she finally decides she has had enough and it's time to get out. When she tries, her husband ends up putting her in the hospital. Her brother, Alan, steps in to look out for her and asks his old military buddy, Jackson, to let her stay with him. Jackson agrees.
Over the course of seven months, Kat is able to heal from her trauma both physically and emotionally. Jackson also is dealing with some demons from his past that are still very much present. Together they find comfort with one another and their feelings grow every day as they understand one another.
Until Tomorrow Comes is truly an incredible book and you will experience such a wide range of emotions. I loved Kat and Jackson’s relationship and how it evolved naturally and they took the time to get to know each other before they got involved. It made swoon so hard for Jackson that he put her first no matter what and gave her that constant support and love that she needed. The symbolism of the colored butterflies was such a great moment and one of many from this story. I can’t wait to see if we get any more stories in this universe, I am fully invested in it.
**If you want to read this…def check triggers warnings as the story does focus around abuse.
Thank you Mikayla for the eARC.

This may only be Mikayla’s second book, but I’m convinced that she doesn’t know how to write a bad book.
This book was so different than her first one, but it was absolutely beautiful. This is story follows Kat, who was blind to love, only to have her eyes opened when her abusive husband almost kills her the night she planned to finally leave him. Found by her brother, he takes her to stay with his best friend and former military squad member, Jackson.
Jackson has also had his fair share of trauma after finding out his wife was cheating on him with his brother for eight years. Not only that, but the baby he thought was his was actually his brothers.
After Kat goes to live with Jackson, the two of them start to open up to each other and start to peel away the layers that they’ve both built up. The two fall into an easy routine and quickly learn the attraction between them is shared.
The way that Jackson continuously put Kat first but also makes sure she is always safe and cared for makes him a top tier book boyfriend. He is protective in a way that she needs but never steps over the line. He is also extremely swoon worthy.
And the way that Kat opened her heart to Jackson but also stood up for him and supported him in ways he never experienced before was beautiful.
While this is a story about heartbreak, it’s also a story about new beginnings, finding your strength and learning what unconditional love is. This was an absolutely beautiful story!!

Ay muy cuquito, lo he disfrutado muchísimo 💖
December 11, 2023
I randomly found this book through a Facebook book rec group in a random comment and I looked it up and immediately wanted to read it. I binged this one in just a few hours and really enjoyed it! I felt the plot kept me fully engaged and I liked the authors writing. This is the first book I’ve read by this author and I *think* it’s only their second book?? I could be wrong but I’m happy to have read it and I’ve added what I think is their debut to my tbr as well!
I really enjoyed Kat’s story and to see how she navigated her trauma and healing. I loved love LOVED Alan’s character and thought he was the best brother. And of course I loved Jackson’s character. I think what I loved most about this having the brother’s best friend trope was that it wasn’t a big deal that Jackson was Alan’s friend. I think it can be a bit excessive when that trope is overplayed and things are made to be forbidden when they really don’t need to be. So I really liked that about this book. I loved how supportive Jackson was to Kat and vice versa. Both of their characters were dealing with their own issues and they both helped each other through all of it. I thought the spice was yummy and I loved how Jackson helped Kat feel completely in control and that she felt totally safe to explore herself with him.
I really enjoyed the side characters but especially Thea and Alan. I’m definitely intrigued by Thea x Cooper and maybe seeing where things would go with other side characters mentioned!
The only reason for a 3 star rating would be that the cat nick names became a bit much and I quickly felt them become cringy to me. That could easily just be a me thing but without that, this probs would’ve been a 4 star.
All in all I thought this was a really quick, emotional but easy read and I’d recommend!

This was such a beautiful story of picking yourself up after being taken down by someone you thought you loved and loved you and then finding yourself in the least likely of places. Kat needs safe place to stay after experiencing and abusive relationship and her brother calls on Jackson, a friend whom he was deployed with, to take her in while she heals.
Jackson has his own brokenness of his own and little did they know they would be on this journey together...eventually coming to terms with their attraction and realizing they are absolutely more then friends. For a debut this was VERY good. I was interested the entire time, the spice was realistic and the story was believable. I look forward to reading more from Mikayla!

Enjoyable, fast paced
Some stuff maybe Spoilers so be aware
Both Jackson and Kat were decent characters i like them
His mom was an annoying old hag istg
so jackson's ex wife Molly and his brother Todd had an affaire for 8 years. when molly got pregnant by him she tried to convince Jackson that it was his but he was deployed so it didn't make sense considering how far she was , for weeks she let him believe he was gonna be a father, he read books, bought baby clothed and wa so happy, and even picked a name for the girl which his bitch ex and assface brother used anyway.
Anyhow his mother spent years bringing them up even though he told her he doesn't ever want to hear about them or the baby ever and all his mom did was call him selfish and grudge holder and defend her other son calling what he did a " mistake "even though it lasted for 8 years

"But I'm done waiting until tomorrow comes for things to get better. When I'm with you, I'm not just getting by. I'm living."
🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
Wow, such a heartbreaking but beautiful story.
Both characters were written in a way that felt so real. The way they both dealt with trauma but were able to heal together and be there for one another. Their chemistry was insane, the glances, the subtle touches…the way everything unraveled and they just let themselves feel every emotion.
Jackson…. greenest flag ever! Such a perfect gentleman, the way he took care of her, provided her with a safe home and protected her.
You can tell the friendship they developed was special, they were able to understand each other in a way no one else could. I love how it naturally blossomed into something much more.
Kat’s journey was definitely hard. I loved how it was handled with care and how real it was. The way she struggled with mental health and how it was written was definitely relatable.

Ohhh what a ride. What a roller coaster. What a book!!! Mikayla Chrissy is going to do special things, write special books. This is her second book and it’s just poignant and beautiful. Heartbreaking but also amazing. This author is going to be one of my favorites releasing books like she has been. I can’t wait for more!

With that being said, yet again, Mikayla blew this out of the water! This book lured me in from page 1 and I couldn't stop. You feel the heartbreak and growth that Kat and Jackson have. The emotions are so up and down but it flowed so perfectly! I am so recommending this book to everyone!

After reading her first book I couldn't wait for more! now this book was very different than her first book, but this book was even better, in my opinion. once i started this I couldn't put it down. Both Kat and Jackson both went through a lot in their past, especially Kat - this girl went through hell but thank God that Jackson came into her life. Their friendship from the beginning was just perfect, they truly needed each other and were exactly what the other one needed!
I loved Thea - she was such a fun character and was such an amazing friend to Kat, she never pushed for information on what happened until Kat was ready to share it with her which was refreshing.
The wedding scene had me cracking up 🤣🤣
Jackson constantly put Kat first no matter what and that's exactly what she needed because it has been so long since she had that kind of support and love. Jackson was constantly there for Kat and she gave him the support he needed. These two clicked instantly and had such a sweet friendship and relationship. I loved both of their relationships with her brother Adam but God the rest of both of their families were horrible, especially her parents.
I can't wait to read more in this series, highly recommend this one! ❤️

Once again, Mikayla has written another 5 star read for me. This book captured my attention from the start until the very end.
Kat has been in an abusive marriage for a year when she decides it's time to get out. When she tries, her husband puts her in the hospital. Her brother Alan, a military veteran, steps in to look out for her and asks his old military buddy Jackson, to let Kat stay with him for a safe haven until Kat's husband is found, to which Jackson agrees.
Over the course of seven months, Kat heals from her trauma both physically and emotionally. Jackson is also living with his own demons from his past that are still very much oresent in his future. Together, Kat and Jackson become friends and take comfort with one another, opening up and being vulnerable. Their feelings grow every day as they understand one another on a level that no one else can.
My goodness. This novel is such a beautifully written story of triumph over tragedy. I love that Kat is written in a way that feels so real. You feel her pain and confusion, her determination, her fear. She navigates her path, moving forward with strength and resilience. She has moments where she falters, but that only makes her character feel more real and raw. The path leading away from domestic violence is a complicated one, and I feel like that really came through in the book.
Jackson is a perfect cinnamon roll hero. He is a strong and silent man. He comes across with a tough exterior: tattooed, bearded, and very guarded. But I love that while he is a very strong and protective character, he is also incredibly sensitive and perceptive. He has this ability to see things without a word said. I love that he never pushes Kat more than she can handle. He supports her and builds her up. His demand for consent at all times is top-notch. We slowly learn about his past, and he handles it with a lot of grace.
I absolutely love that this was not an insta-love forced proximity situation. I really appreciate that it takes months for Kat and Jackson to warm up to one another and truly build and progress their relationship.
I also adore the friendship that Kat finds with Thea. Thea is the companion that Kat needs to push her out of her shell and remember how to have fun living life, and take pleasure in the little things like wearing a sexy dress, or enjoying a glass of wine with girl talk. Kat was robbed of these things over the course of her relationship with her husband, so I really like that a focus on finding herself this way as an individual was included.
The steamy scenes were on point. Jackson is very focused on consent and makes that clear with Kat. I love that she enjoys her smutty audio book and novels, and when she mentions that there's no way sex can be like that in reality, Jackson makes sure to prove her wrong. I love a man who puts his woman on a pedestal and worships her 🥵
The ending felt a bit predictable, but I don't even care. This book put my in my feels with a range of emotions, and the love story between Kat and Jackson was perfection 💜
Thank you, Mikayla Christy, for the opportunity to read an advanced copy and review for you!!

Kat was robbed of these things over the course of her relationship with her husband, so I really like that a focus on finding herself this way as an individual was included.
The steamy scenes were on point. Jackson is very focused on consent and makes that clear with Kat. I love that she enjoys her smutty audio book and novels, and when she mentions that there's no way sex can be like that in reality, Jackson makes sure to prove her wrong. I love a man who puts his woman on a pedestal and worships her 🥵
The ending felt a bit predictable, but I don't even care. This book put my in my feels with a range of emotions, and the love story between Kat and Jackson was perfection 💜
Thank you, Mikayla Christy, for the opportunity to read an advanced copy and review for you!!

Wow I can't express how much I love this book. Mikayla I'm seriously doubting this being your second book because this was beautifully written and pulled on all my heartstrings.
Please check trigger warnings before reading!! It touches a lot on DV!
When Kat met Zack, she thought she was in love. Married fairly quickly and all was great until it wasn't. That one night might've been her last if it wasn't for her brother, but she got out. Jackson having to deal with his own share of trauma that no solider should have to come back home to. Their wife cheating on them. It broke and destroyed him, but he is getting by. Now Kat is moved in with him to keep her safe because he's the only person her brother trusts to keep her safe while her husband has yet to be found.
Kat is one of the strongest FMC I've read. To go through all she went through and still thinks about everyone else is heartwarming but also sad. This book took me on an emotional rollercoaster that just broke me. It was heartbreaking, but also so beautiful. Jackson and Kat really are a perfect pair. They complement each other in so many ways and to see the way he cares for her is outstanding. He is the perfect gentleman that she needs but also deserves. And Kat is the missing puzzle piece in his life as well. They both went through trauma and were trying to deal with it in their own ways, but living together they got to heal together and that is just beautiful.
Thank you, Mikayla Christy for this heartbreaking, gut wrenching book. I definitely shed a few tears for Kat, but you made it all up with the romance. And definitely the audiobook scenes. P.S. if those books she was listening to aren't real, you need to make them real!!

💫4.5/5 |🌶️ 4/5 | Domestic Violence Survivor | Brother’s Friend | Forced Proximity | Slow Burn | Dual POV | Trigger Warnings: Domestic Abuse, PTSD, Infidelity
Thank you @authormikaylachristy for this ARC. My review and opinions are solely my own and given freely. PLEASE READ THE CONTENT WARNING.
This was an achingly beautiful story about Kat who is a survivor of DV and her journey to healing through therapy and processing her PTSD. We also witness the slow burn blooming love story between her and Jackson who also happens to be dealing with a different kind of trauma, his ex-wife sleeping with her brother for 8 years while he was in the military and getting pregnant.
The slow burn in this book was well worth it because the spice was oh so good! The timeframe for the story and unfolding of events is months apart which makes it more realistic (the healing, the budding slow burn, the way Kat slowly opens up). I loved the secondary characters Thea, Cooper, and Alan - I want MORE!
Kat is strong, resilient, and smart. She was so broken in the beginning that it made you so sad. She had nowhere to go, her husband was in hiding, and the parents thought it was simply tiff despite her injuries because they didn’t want to ruin their business relations with her husband’s family. The one person that was there for her during the most important time of her life is her brother Alan – he found her after getting beaten up and found her a safe place to heal and recover.
Jackson is our very hot cinnamon roll hero. He welcomed her into his home, gave her space and showed respect for her privacy, but was also there for her when she was having panic attacks or nightmares. He grounded her and made her feel SAFE. Once they both acted on their feelings, the thoughtfulness he gave asking for CONSENT and stating that saying no and stopping was always an option was freaking out of this world beautiful.
I loved all the “Cat” nicknames he gave her. The part where the brother didn’t even contest their relationship in the end was so cute. And the wedding part, was HILARIOUS. The book is spicy, but I don’t feel like it took away from the story.

Jackson and Kat
This book really showed the range Mikayla Christy has in telling stories, and it’s only her second book! It was well written and tackled topics that were tough in a respectful way. It was emotional but also laid into the theme of healing from trauma heavily. I loved that Jackson and Kat didn’t just jump into a relationship, it made their relationship arc believable and heartwarming.
Jackson and Kat had both suffered immense trauma. Jackson had come home from deployment to find his wife pregnant with his brother’s baby on top of his PTSD. As if that weren’t enough, he was also dealing with his mother trying to force him to “get over” what his brother had done. Kat was living through her own Hell. Married to a man who lived to abuse and degrade her. So when Kay’s brother, and Jackson’s best friend, reaches out to see if Kat can stay with him while she heals, neither could imagine the path their lives would take.
The longer Kat stayed with Jackson, the closer they got. Through early morning walks on the beach and days spent together at Jackson’s house they developed a friendship that turned into so much more. I loved the addition of Thea to their little hideaway. She was the perfect friend for Kat and gave her exactly what she needed in a friend.
This was a great story of healing from trauma. It was perfectly paced and had just the right amount passion and friendship. Kat and Jackson endured a lot and grew so much together. I loved every little detail about their relationship.

ℙ𝕆𝕍: first person, dual perspectives
𝕊𝕦𝕞𝕞𝕒𝕣𝕪:
Kat
Nightmares are charming. From the moment I met mine, he lured me in with sugar-coated words and false promises. Those empty words drained the life out of me until all that remained was an empty shell. Calling the one person I knew I could count on nearly killed me. What’s even harder than escaping, is healing. It’s ugly and painful. But laying low in the company of my brother’s only friend? I may have found my safe haven.
Jackson
When Alan called, asking me to keep his sister safe, I let her in without a second thought. After all, I know a thing or two about getting through pain. My coping mechanism of choice: silence. I swore I would never fall in love again, telling myself that I couldn’t be hurt or manipulated if I didn’t let anyone in. Famous last words.
𝕄𝕪 𝕋𝕙𝕠𝕦𝕘𝕙𝕥𝕤:
This was a bit of a slow burn romance, so if that's your go-to trope, then you might enjoy this one. While it's not a SUPER slow burn romance, I love how the author allows the characters to get to know each other before becoming romantic!🫠
The plot and storyline were very well developed and kept you wanting more. For me, there was never a lull in characters or their development!🫶
I also loved the secondary characters. I hope we see more of Thea, Alan, and Cooper!
Thank you, Mikayla, for the opportunity of an ARC! I'm excited for your next book!❤️

“Everything about you, and everything I do with you, makes me feel… new. Like I can spread my wings and finally bask in the sun after a rough storm.”
Until Tomorrow Comes is a powerful story that focuses on healing, self-rediscovery, and allowing oneself to love again. This heartbreakingly beautiful story follows two protagonists that both experience trauma. After being hospitalized, Kat, a domestic violence survivor, moves in with Jackson, her brother’s friend, until her husband is found and arrested. Jackson faces his past traumas throughout the book. His previous relationship, with his ex-wife, did not end the way he expected. Although both characters face extremely different traumatic events, they are able to heal, with the help of each other, throughout the story.
Both characters had the opportunity to navigate through their experiences before diving into a romantic relationship with one another. There was never an instance where one of them pressured the other to get involved in a relationship. Both Kat and Jackson were supportive of each other and respected the other’s feelings and boundaries at all times throughout the book.
Until Tomorrow Comes is truly an incredible book that will have readers experiencing an abundance of emotions. Readers will fall in love with Kat and Jackson’s friendship and romantic relationship. The symbolism of the colored butterflies was one of my favorite moments of the book. I just absolutely loved the story.

Mikayla has always provided us with amazing book recommendations, and has never failed us. When she told us all she was writing book, I screamed in excitement. Her debut novel was good, but ‘Until Tomorrow Comes’ was even better!
This book is all the feels. It follows Kat’s story on the hardship she endured falling for a man that was not the person she thought he was. Her brother, Alan, helped her find a safe haven, that being his old buddy from the military, Jackson. While reading this book Jackson was immediately added to my list of book boyfriends!
While I don’t want to give anyone spoilers, this book is a book of self discovery, empowerment, raw emotions, and healing. Make sure to read up on the content warning she provides for the readers. The spice was chef’s kiss. They say that you can find pieces of authors in the book, although I don’t know Mikayla on a personal level however I do know bits and pieces of her likes. And in this book I definitely knew that the margarita talk was all her. I mean who doesn’t love a good margarita! Also Kat’s love for books and audiobooks was definitely her too!
One of my favorite quotes from this book is this, “He’s like the beacon at the top of the lighthouse, shining brightly at the darkest moments and guiding me towards safety.”
‘Until Tomorrow Comes’ is definitely worth putting on your TBR, or picking it up as your next read.

I went into this book blind. I only knew that it wasn’t like the last book of hers I read and this one has A LOT of trigger warnings‼️
Jackson and Kat are simply amazing.
Kat has been married for two years to Zack. What started out as a great relationship turned into living hell extremely fast.
Her brother Alan has always had a bad feeling about the guy but no one wanted to listen.
She makes the decision to leave but it doesn’t end up like she planned at all…
Her brother comes to her rescue.
Alan reaches out to his friend Jackson and asks if Kat can stay at his beach front house with him while she recovers and hides from her husband.
Jackson and Kat connect instantly and grow close. It’s easy for them to talk to one another about the things that have hurt them. They feel safe together.
Jackson is amazing and so sweet🫠😍
I love how they lift each other up and stand up for one another.
The first time Jackson called Kat baby, my heart melted….🥹
She thinks she sees her husband in a parking lot but doesn’t say anything until things start to get extremely intense again…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️|🌶️🌶️🌶️
And she does it again! I loved Cross Check My Heart, I mean it’s a hockey romance, what’s not to like 😂 This book is not hockey romance and I loved the vibe! But loved the CCMH references!
Kat is running from a life of pain and hurt. Jackson is just simply going through life after being lied and cheated on. When Kay’s brother suggests her going to live with his old solider buddy she doesn’t hesitate and goes. They find peace in each other.
The way Kats character grew through out the story was amazing. She became me such a strong women and was such a fighter!
We all need a Jackson to get us through our trauma! They are both healing each other in their own ways ❤️ Thea was such an amazing friend to her and definitely helped in her healing process! And her brother Alan is hands down the best brother known to man! So supportive and protective. He came to her rescue even after everything that happened ☺️
The book kinda gave me gives Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks, vibes!
That wedding scene had me dying laughing 😂

This is not at all my normal type of book, but I loved Mikayla’s debut so much that I didn’t even care. I knew I had to read it. And I was absolutely not disappointed.
Kat is living an extravagant life with her fiancée. But she’s hiding a dark secret. And when he brutally assaults her one night and leaves her alone, her estranged brother makes arrangements to bring her somewhere safe. Jackson doesn’t even hesitate to agree when asked to open his home to Kat. When he sees the damage her ex did to her body, as well as her mental health, he vows to do everything he can to make her feel safe and cared for. It isn’t long before he becomes a security blanket for her on her road to gaining back her independence.
This isn’t one of those books where everything is cute and fun, then they bang. This is an emotional story where we get to experience this couple falling in love. Jackson is so patient with Kat. And she is one of the bravest, strongest FMCs I’ve ever read.
I highly recommend this book, but please make sure to check the triggers. There are many parts that are very very emotional and raw. But the story is truly beautiful.

This was a sweet, raw and emotional story about healing, finding yourself again after life doesn’t work out the way you expected and finding love in an unlikely place. It was captivating and had me invested right from the start. While there was some heavy subject matter, it was balanced beautifully.
Jackson was a walking green flag. This man opened his home and life to Kat after she flees an abusive relationship. And while he did it for her brother, who happens to be his best friend.. he cared for, protected and provided safety for Kat in her time of need. The friendship they developed was special, they could understand each other in a way others couldn’t, and the way it blossomed so naturally into something more was beautiful.
I loved Kat’s journey and how it was handled with care while being realistic and relatable. I admired the focus on her mental health and healing. She had been through so much, and it made me feel warm and fuzzy the way she rediscovered herself, came out stronger and found her safe place with Jackson. Meanwhile, she helped him through his own struggles and together they formed a deep, strong bond.

Synopsis:
Everyone enters a marriage hopeful of their future together, but that hope quickly turned to absolute terror for Kat when her husband Zack turned violent against her. With the help of her brother Alan, Kat escapes to stay with Alan's friend from the army, Jackson.
Knowing what it is like to live with trauma, Jackson is thoughtful and attentive to Kat's needs. This is a story about healing, overcoming the shadows of one's past, and opening oneself once again to love.
Spice: 🌶🌶🌶.5
My Thoughts:
Until Tomorrow Comes is a beautiful story. I read it within a few days and if I did not have family and work obligations I would not have put it down!
Definitely check the triggers warnings. The story is focused around dealing with an abusive husband. It is intense at times, but there is clear insight on the process of dealing with and healing trauma.
This is not a fade to black novel, and the entire novel is made for mature audiences.
Definitely read this novel if you are looking for a spicy story that is about love and healing.
