Review / Release Blitz: Mr. First Love by Emily Krat


Mr. First Love by Emily Krat
RELEASES: November 3rd

First love deserves a second chance...
Mark Price is a wickedly handsome, tattooed billionaire made of solid muscle. He’s content with focusing on traveling around the world, spending time with different women in every city. It’s all fine by him until he runs into the one woman to ever hold his heart.
It’s not like anyone ever forgets their first love, right?
Too bad it looks like she has no intentions of ever trusting him again. Probably because he broke her heart into a million little pieces eight years ago.
**
For Lily Maxwell, adulthood looks a lot different than the one she’d dreamed about, but she has everything she needs: an amazing daughter, a stable job that pays their bills, and wonderful friends and family who support her. She’s made peace with her past, determined to move forward.
But when her gorgeous-as-sin ex comes barreling into her life, she can’t get him out of her mind.
He makes her want to take a chance.
To believe again.
She tells herself she’s not going that road again.
Even if he does make her want to throw caution to the wind. Even if her body is covered in little electric sparks at the thought of him. Even if he’s the best sex she’s ever had.
She has to think about the one person who matters the most to her - her daughter, Violet.
Being a single mother isn’t easy, and the billionaire playboy is definitely not the father material.
Is Lily a fool to let a second chance at happily ever after pass her by?
But what happens if following her heart turns out to be her biggest mistake of all?

MY REVIEW

In attempting to make a go at a real relationship with his current fwb, Mark finds he's never let go of his first love, Lily. Trying to gain Lily's forgiveness, though, means Mark will have to confront his past. Will Lily ever forgive him, and give him a second chance to prove their love has never faded?

Lily has moved on from her first love. She's a single mother to the world's most adorable daughter, she's a paralegal in law school, and she has the best best friend. But when her first love approaches her out of the blue attempting to apologize and get some closure, she's thrown. She never thought she'd see Mark again and had accepted that he hadn't truly loved her back in boarding school. But now things are all upside down. Now, thanks to her best friend's urging, she has to go confront Mark to obtain her own closure. But will all those old feelings flare up again? Will she give Mark the second chance and forgiveness he is seeking?

Oooh there's some pain in this story. Mark's backstory was a bit heartbreaking, almost as much as Lily's was. I hurt for them both, and was just cheering them on as they finally obtained the second chance that was obviously what they both wanted. For a tattooed billionaire, Mark is not the dominant jerk I had been expecting. Instead, he's downright swoony as he gently and impatiently woos Lily and Violet. Talk about a hot cinnamon roll!! Lily is the kind of mother we all love to read about, all wish we had - strong, selfless, and loving. She is definitely #singlemomgoals. She and Mark and Violet make for a wonderful made family, and I loved reading as they fell back in love and found happiness.

You TV series

Wow, hubby and I watched You on Lifetime last night. It was creepy and suspenseful. Hubby likened it to Dexter , and I have to agree. Penn Badgley was on point - creepy, stalkery, but fascinating. I didn't think too much of Elizabeth Lail's acting, but I'm not sure if it was just that her character was bland, or if it was truly bad acting. Can't wait for next week!
