New Review! Unforeseen by M. C. Decker, 4 Cranky Stars

UnforeseenUnforeseen by M.C. Decker
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

**** 4 Cranky Stars ****



This is a bittersweet love story about a second chance at love after heartbreak.



Blake lost his wife unexpectedly to a horrific incident leaving him and his two young children behind. With a broken heart, he said his goodbye, positive that he would never find love again.



Ten months later, he met Cassidy.



Cassidy’s heart had been broken too. As well as her faith in finding a new love. Ridiculed and abandoned by the father of her unborn child, Cassidy shied away from relationships for years. Once bitten and twice shy as they say. After all, she had her daughter to think of first.



But there’s something different about the way that Blake gaze into her eyes that convinced her to open her heart one more time.



Ok, here I go again. Just like everyone, I dip into contemporary romance every once in a while. Light-hearted and funny ones are my to-go for as I find it difficult to dive into deeply emotional and angst-infested stories. Too close to real life and such, I just can’t deal.



Unforeseen, in a way, was like that. With so many broken relationships nowadays, it’s inevitable for two made-up families to merge together when the adults try to find love once again. A few are successful and manage to join up their families like pieces of jigsaw puzzles. But not before over-coming a few trials along the way.



Blake and Cassidy’s journey had been the same. Thankfully for them, their children were still young to resist this new life trusted into them. Also the “trials” thrown-in had been solved easy enough as long as communication was kept open between the two adults. In a way, this had been a modern fairy tale of sorts.



I had doubts in the beginning because things happened a bit too fast and too perfectly. I felt Blake wasn’t ready to really commit himself to Cassidy when his heart still belonged to his late wife. Thankfully, the author slowed it down a bit and allowed the two to fall in love first before diving in into a full-blown relationship.



This was also a full-length book that had a happily ever after ending. Not entirely sure if it belonged to a series, unless the next book is about two completely different characters who were somehow connected to Blake and Cassidy.



Recommended for readers looking for an easy read that leaves you with your heart whole and a contended smile lingering on your lips afterwards.
