I received a copy of this title to read and review for Wicked Reads 
 5 Emotional Roller Coaster Stars. 
 Garrett Leigh is a new-to-me author, and I found her writing style fluid, with true-to-life emotions, and an engaging pacing. I was clicking the pages at a rapid rate, yet not wanting the book to end. 
 Rupert and Jodi have been together for 5 years when a devastating event rocks their entire world. In the beginning, the reader is thrust into an already committed relationship, then the event happens. While Rupert is beside himself with grief at Jodi's bedside, the narration goes 5 years into the past to show how it all began. Then, once Jodi returns home, the couple have to rebuild their life from scratch. 
 Truly, I give the author mad props on how the story evolved, creating a solid foundation while showing us the past, recent past, and the current time, weaving it all together in a heart-wrenching read. I respect the author for showing the darker nature of overcoming an accident, and for not erasing it all by having Jodi be 100% in the blink of an eye, if ever. The realism is what kept me engaged. 
 Recommended for MM romance fans who want a character-driven read, showing real struggles of everyday people. No bells and whistles, stereotypes, smexy on every other page, forced romance or comedy, or overused tropes- just solid character development and storytelling, with a realistic bond between the cast of characters.
