When We Meet Again
Getting over the death of my fiancé wasn’t how I imagined spending my late thirties.
Especially when the man who came to pull me from the wreckage of my grief is his younger brother— Roman.The one constant in my life no matter how difficult things got.
From the moment I met Roman Huxley, he had my attention.
But I told myself there was no room for a man fifteen years younger than me—especially one with his whole life ahead of him.
He’s sweet, emotionally mature, and, let’s be honest, ridiculously sexy.
He plans to help me heal by ticking off items on my bucket list before I turn forty.
But somewhere between the fun and adventure, I fell for him.
I can see why Roman is a catch. Any woman would be lucky to have him.
But what happens when I’m the only woman he wants?

I was very intrigued from the tropes of this book:
• love after loss
• reverse age gap
• SLOW burn
• ex fiancés brother
• friends to lovers
I honestly don’t think I could say much for fear of giving the story line away. I enjoyed the story and the characters. I felt like it was rushed in a few spots and also slow in some. But overall an enjoyable read! Grief is weird and hard and I felt for the characters in this story. Sweet Tom 🥹 such a special soul of a human!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Kellie got me again.
This is an emotional second chance love story between Waverly and Roman, and it absolutely wrecked me in the best way.
What got me most is how devastatingly accurate the author's portrayal of a narcissistic relationship is. Patrick's comments and actions are SO spot on that if you've survived that kind of "love," the kind that's supposed to "make sense" but never really does, this is going to pull on every heartstring you have.
Waverly's healing is not simple. Not clean, not neat, not pretty. Her grief and her healing are raw and real in a way that actually respects how messy that process is.
This book isn't spicy, but it was never trying to be. The healing, the growth, the slow burn, those are the real stars here. It's written so poetically that you don't miss the spice.
And then there's Tom. TOM. His genuine love and care for Waverly completely wrecked me by the end. That kind of love, patient, steady, real, is so rare to see written this well. I was an emotional mess over his storyline. The book breaks your heart and heals a part of you by the end.

What can I say other than I absolutely LOVED this book form start to finish.
When We Meet Again was an emotionally raw story of a woman who was learning to find her way back to who she REALLY was before she shrunk herself down for her fiancé.
I related to this story on so many levels and loved the character development for both Waverly & Roman.
There was sorrow, death, self discovery, sweet and sexy moments, and such an incredible storyline.
And of course.... the plot twist I WAS NOT expecting..
I 10/10 recommend this book if you are a strong female who feels like you've your way, lost yourself. Whether it be to a career, your children, or a man. This one hits all the feels.

This book started off pretty strong and the ending was somewhat satisfying but the middle was all over the place. And there were plot holes throughout. Like in the beginning she says she looks back and sees Patrick swept away by the wave but then later talks about how she lost track of him when he went to help a family. Then Patrick was not interested in the same things and as outgoing so he pushed her to spend time with Roman when he knew he had a thing for her but then suddenly it’s too much and he forces him away? The shock factor of Patrick being alive was what kept me from DNFing this book but even that was very poorly executed.

For being a 300 page book… this book felt 600 pages long. I think with some heavy editing, this could’ve been an incredible book. A lot of editing mistakes (saying one thing in the beginning of the book and describing it different later).
This book falls in under my argument of bad books turn out to be great tv/movies. I would love to see this played out on the screen.
Some parts dragged on but there was a good twist to keep me intrigued to the end. However, a lot of that twist pissed me off. Waverly wasn’t pissed off enough IMO.
Sweet baby Roman was perfect though and I’d give him 5 stars alone.
But it needed a better ending. Fell flat.

This was the first book I read of Kellie Storms. I will say it had me hooked line and sinker. The emotional roller coaster and the explanation of how it feels to lose someone soo close to you and the path to discovery missed connection and reconnection draw you in and claim you attention! 10/10 I will read again!

So good. I love the way the writing style shifts depending on the perspective of the individual character we’re hearing the story from. The slow burn is delicious. Kellie Storm’s character building made me feel as though I knew these characters in my own real life. Highly recommend this story.

I was pleasantly surprised by this book. I really enjoyed it. It wasn’t your typical love story.

I’m between 2 and 3 stars. I liked the plot but 98% of the characters annoyed me except for their parents. This’ll be the only book I read of hers.

This started out strong but fell kind of flat in the end for me.

It was really cute. I love how it was always supposed to be Rome and kensi and I feel like it’s a great reflection of when the universe is supposed to align, it always does

This book is about 150 pages too long. There is not enough story for a full 300 page book. It’s just dragging so bad in the middle. I know how this is gonna end and I don’t care to finish it.
