Review:
Many
of us have wondered about the true story of Amos and Naomi since the beginning of
the Wilder Brothers series began and Carrie Ann Ryan Finally gives us their
fraught and tragic love story as they come together, fall apart, and then
finally win their HEA. I was truly
rooting for Amos and Naomi to get their HEA, but I hated the way that Amos kept
breaking Naomi’s heart and leaving her hurting even though her love for him
never waned. Amos is the kind of protective
male that has never really embraced his emotions and learned to express his
emotions in anything more than the physical way. While he obviously cares
deeply for Naomi, he fears that he will hold her back and he wants her to be
able to achieve all of her goals in life without getting in her way. Naomi wants badly to succeed in her career,
but losing the man she loves is not part of her plan to get there, but she can’t
be around him day-in and day-out without being with him. Only when he is truly forced to accept the possibility
of Naomi no longer being in his life, does Amos come to understand what truly
losing her will mean to him and he steps up to show her that he can change. The love between these two is strong and
passionate and that push-pull is heart wrenching until they finally find their
way to peace. I loved getting to know
Naomi more, seeing her growing and pushing for what she wants and deserves from
life and demanding her due. Amos is a typical dude that needs some sense
slapped into him and thankfully the Wilders are there to provide that for
him. It was great to see all our
favorite Wilders woven through this story and I loved the wedding scenes for
sure. I am dying to see more of Amos and
Naomi in future stories in the series now that they have found their HEA and
gotten their relationship figured out.
Carrie always manages to give her readers that bit of closure that we
need as we become invested in the characters in her series and this Naomi/Amos
novella is a perfect example, Carrie on!
