4.5stars, I was engaged, enthralled and wanted More Noah and more Tabby.
We are introduced to Tabitha immediately after a life changing event and get to witness her struggle to survive.
This was a collection where we are first introduced to Noah and Tabby and watch them maneuver through lifes’ perils, love’s lessons and college experiences. But, it was Jules and Foster that I clung too. When you really get to hear Foster’s story your heart breaks when you realize all of the weight he’s carrying on his shoulders, the guilt that shouldn’t be there.
Everyone has their demons, everyone makes mistakes and it was reading how Jules battled those demons with such grace that I loved. She was an amazing friend and companion.
Wonderful job Mrs. James, I was sad to see the series end :(

I received a copy of Impossible Love (The Complete Before You Go Series) in exchange for an honest review.
This is an easy review for me - I absolutely loved both stories in the series.
Before You Go is Tabby's story. She's a new transfer to college and trying to move past an event that sent her life into a tailspin. In her attempt to move forward and be the one controlling things, she sets out on a mission for an unbelievable one night stand and picks out the perfect candidate, a handsome and anonymous stranger sitting at the bar. But things don't go according to plan and it turns out her stranger is not as anonymous as she'd originally though and that he has his own plan.
Tabby was so easy to like. She's broken because of her traumatic past so her walls are so high up so strong that it doesn't feel like anything or anyone will be able to get her to open up to them. Noah was a dream come true. So handsome and just basically so good and even though he has his own baggage to deal with, he seems like the perfect match for Tabby.
More is the story of Jules and Foster, who are friends of both Tabby and Noah. They had dated back in high school and remained friends after the breakup but lately it's been more of a Friends with Benefits kind of relationship. Jules is tired of the FWB status and wants more but it becomes clear to her that Foster is just into that so she vows to forget about him and move on with someone else. But how's Foster going to react when he sees his friend with another man and will that be enough for him to realize that he may be about to lose the best thing that has ever happened to him?
We first met Jules when Tabby met her in class and they became friends so it was great to find out more about her and find out what her secrets were. The chapters, alternating between Jules' and Foster's perspectives put us into each of their heads so we never had a doubt about how the other felt about the other and all I could do was sit back and wait, hoping that they'd make the big reveal to each other.
I'd absolutely recommend Clare Jame's Before You Go series to anyone who loves New Adult romances, and I look forward to reading more from her!

Impossible Love contains both stories: Before You Go and More.
Before You Go follows the story of Tabitha. She is trying to take back control of her life. One night, she meets Noah and tries to put her plan in action. She quickly finds out that some things are easier said then done.......The more she gets to know Noah, the more she wants to let him in and get over her past....
More follows the story of Jules and Foster. We first meet them in Before You Go. I was so excited to read their story. Foster and Jules have this amazing chemistry, but are afraid of what will happen if they hook up. Foster is carrying around a secret that could destroy everything he has and wants with Jules. But Foster quickly learns that you can fight fate for so long......
I really enjoyed the characters from both stories. I found them all very likable and easy to connect with. I really loved that More gave you both Jules and Foster's pov and that Noah and Tabitha were still very present in the story-line. The characters from both stories were all a little broken in their own ways and I was happy to see them strive for their second chances at happiness.
Overall, I really enjoyed both of these books. I don't know if this it for these characters or not, but I would definitely love to read more.

Excellent a must read
so much love wrapped up in one book.. With more than one heart felt storyline. I wasn't sure at first but... after a few chapters I couldn't put it down.
