Chub Rub Duet #2
Chunky Monkey
Grief:
/greef/
noun
1. Keen mental suffering or distress over affliction or loss; sharp sorrow; painful regret.
It’s been five years. Five years of pain, sorrow, and grief. Five years of having to hold on to my insides so they didn’t come spewing out for the world to see. Five years of walking around like a ghost. But everything is about to change. With just one phone call, my world will be flipped upside down, and like it or not, everything is about to change.
Am-ne-sia
/am nee zhuh/
noun
1. Loss of a large block of interrelated memories;complete or partial loss of memory caused by brain injury, shock, etc.
My name is John Doe. I woke up five years ago with no recollection of who I was. Everything in my world was blank except for sporadic visions of an angel in human’s clothing. The urgings of those around me to start a new life is strong, but I can’t fight the feelings inside of me demanding I find out who this beautiful creature is. I’m coming for you, my beautiful angel. Wait for me.
Chem·is·try
/keməstrē/
noun
1. the complex emotional or psychological interaction between two people.
This is my world, not Jackson’s, but I’m slowly making him remember and introducing him to things he doesn’t understand. There is still something between us. We can’t fight it, and we’re sinking again.

FIRST... If you haven't read Chub Rub yet, you need to read that before Chunky Monkey.
Be still my beating heart!
Chunky Monkey is not your typical romance... It's a heart-thumping, soul-shattering, mind-blowing, epic TRUE LOVE story! Shannon Youngblood knows how to pull at your emotions with her words, she has done so with every book I have read of hers.
I honestly didn't know what to expect going into this book, the first book Chub Rub left me heartbreakingly destroyed. I didn't think there could be much that would top how I felt with book one... Man, was I ever wrong! Shannon took my broken heart and shattered it only to put it back together again, but in between the break and shatter was a wave of emotions that pulled me under, and just when I felt like I could fight no more, Shannon used her words to push me up to the surface.
There is so much I want to say, but can't without giving spoilers. This story is everything and so much more! Beautifully and Brilliantly written from start to finish. An epic conclusion to Maggie and Jackson!
FIVE heart-thumping, soul-shattering STARS!
"I may not know who I am Maggie, but I know who you are. You're my soulmate, and there is no question in my mind about that."
"Her tears fell silently down her cheeks, love glowing back at me through her eyes. I knew the old Jackson loved her, and by God, I was going to learn every facet of this stunning creature before me. She was mine, plain and simple."

Absolutely amazing! This series has brought me so much joy and sadness all wrapped into one. Once you start reading you won’t want to stop ( that was the case for me haha ) shannon has done a wonderful job of being the characters on the pages to life. You will fall in love with Maggie and Jackson story just like so many of us did.

I don't know where to begin. This book was a long time coming. I am beyond thrilled to have read this. You absolutely have to read Chub Rub in order to read this. I have one word Jackson. This book is such a phenomenal emotional journey. I absolutely love it. Thank you, thank you. I really feel delighted and joyful with the outcome. I absolutely recommend this duet.

I, like most, have been wanting, praying, begging, wishing and anything else to get a continuation of the story of Maggie and Jackson, I pre-ordered this book as soon as I found out about it and let me tell you, I was nervous to read it at first because book 1 gutted me and I knew this book was going to be emotional and boy was it ever! I am so glad the author decided to give us more of Maggie and Jackson. This is a must read but after you read Chub Rub and be sure to have tissues on hand because you will need them.

Loved
What an amazing finale to a great duet. I always hoped that there would be a happy ending for Maggie. Because I love chub rub so much. But I believe chunky monkey has definitely taken the lead. Shannon thank you for giving me everything and more I wanted in this HEA.

Book one destroyed me and this book had so many emotional ups and downs in it but let me tell you I am so glad that the author decided to write a happy ending for Maggie. Sure there were tears spilled during this book but they were tears of happiness!

Memories return
At the end of the last book I was kind of mad at you Shannon, but you made this book so much better than I could have dreamed. Everything about bt his story was so intense and kept me wanting more. I highly recommend this series to others.

The wait is over!!
I’ve waited 4 years to see Jackson and Maggie again. I even emailed the author begging for a part two! I’m so happy she was able to come back to this story and give us an ending we all wanted. I fell right back in love with this story and all my memories of why I love this series flood right back. It’s amazing when your able to feel everything again when it’s been years since you read the first book.
This is an amazing story and I recommend this series to everyone. It makes you want to be a better wife / love to your partner. It makes you remember why you fell in love. Thank you so much for coming back to this story and giving us all closure!

I had the fortune of meeting this author at a book event in April in MI. I purchased the duet from her after spending hours hanging out and getting a feel for her as a person.
I am so glad that I bought this book the same day I got the first one! Otherwise I would have lost my mind.
After the way CR ended, this novella was the perfect salve for the wounds the author left in my heart.
Seeing Jackson find his way back to himself and his family was beautiful. And the way Maggie finally felt at peace?! Ugh. This book was absolute perfection!
