Meet Me Halfway (Learning to Love Series)

Product Information

The sex scenes. Pass. The coming out nowhere dominant bullshit in bed and the male character psycho-babbling nonsense to claim control in the bedroom, GTFO with this BS. The sex talk was a bit ridiculous? Our two leads are Madison and Garrett, they have completely different personalties and they are oh so perfect for each other. It all started with new house, a noise complaint and the rest as they say is a slow burn history.

The chemistry was a blazing fire, and seeing how Garrett was with Jamie; My heart went to this man! The mother and son bond that Maddie and Jamie shared was equally enjoyable to read and Jamie is easily one of my favorite childhood characters of all time! i know it’s a kinda weird thing to notice but i also loved the parallel of Garret touching her ears when he washed her hair vs Rob, her coworker, touching her ear when he was playing with her hair— the former consensual, the latter non-consensual. idk, it just showed how she willingly gave herself to Garret; to be loved and taken care of, to be respected and adored.... without there being strings attached or ulterior motives. And then, this guy became the love interest because he's hot, so why not? I thought I was going to like him after putting her in her place, but oh my god. Sadly, I got so tired of the book that I stopped highlighting the toxic behavior and all the possessiveness. The author tried to make him all mysterious and a little grumpy, but he was just an asshole and didn't show personality throughout the entire book, he was just there. He also made some terrible assumptions about the protagonist at the beginning, about her being a gold digger (when she's far from it, working like three jobs and being a single mom) and never apologized for that. garrett. i am in love with this man. granted, i did want to slap him at first, but i’m glad mads confronted him on his behaviour! the second he changed tho…wow. no words for this man. not only did he treat maddie (WHEN HE CALLS HER THAT🫠🫠) with the love and care she deserves but his care for jamie too had me sobbing.Nothing truly grabbed me in this story, the pace was odd, it started with some arduous 30% of reading where the main characters barely interacted and the little interaction given didn't make me curious or hope for more. I found everything so very cliché. Don't get me wrong, I'm a lover of tropes and emblematic romantic gestures, but an author has got to bring their own thing to the romance moves textbook. Here it felt like a mod-podge of romance scenes. Nothing felt organic but forced. Jamie was my favorite. He was a good kid who turned out ok despite his upbringing. His relationship with Madison was amazing : she did such a good job with him. I probably would have enjoyed this book more if I didn’t notice that it felt way too similar to Wait For It by Mariana Zapata mixed with a bit of One Percent of You by Michelle Gross — and yes, obviously a lot of books can feel similar to each other, especially when you’re dealing with similar topics and tropes… but the amount of similarities I found between these three books were a bit much to seem coincidental and therefore it gave me a bad vibe.

I loved! It felt so original to focus on the strength and determination of the single mother heroine and the problems of making assumptions. There is a great deal of romance between neighbors and lovers, and seeing the subtle shifts in dynamic was immensely satisfying. Our hero is a grumpy jerk who isn’t that likable at first, but by the end he completely melted my heart. so by default, i was gonna love this. it really gave me everything this trope does so well— the cute kid, the sexy neighbour who’s a grump but a big softie, the sweet heroine, the slow pining and tension, the fun best friend... yeah, this one just hit. Book Genre: Abuse, Adult, Adult Fiction, Childrens, Contemporary, Contemporary Romance, Fiction, New Adult, Romance, Sociology Happily ever after didn’t always mean pregnancy and a diamond ring. Sometimes it also meant only working forty hours a week and discovering who I was as an adult and as a woman. Who I was as Madison, outside of who I was as a mother and a friend. their love was just wonderfully soft and organic. i loved the pacing and the way Garrett took care of Madison but didn’t stifle her or “fix” her. he was her companion and equal. the perfect fit.He judged her without knowing her, just from a conversation he overheard. Hence, he started growling and scowling her way (alpha bullshit). Author's Note: All books in the Meet Me Halfway series are standalones. This story centers around Nate, a character introduced in Book One.

I thought this book had a really good premise and these types of romances about overcoming past toxic relationships are something that I completely love, however, it all started wrong when I started hating the main character in the first 10% of the book because of this: Ummm... this is actually complicated for me to rate, because I loved it and hated it at the same time.

He looked untouchable. Unattainable. The kind of man your mama warned you about, but the kind you’d willingly crawl on your hands and knees for anyway. This was recommended to read by algorhythms after One Percent of You by Michelle Gross which shares the single mom/grumpy neighbor romance trope and while I enjoyed the later A LOT, Meet Me Halfway was a complete fail for me. I made it to 93% (with some light skimming) and decided to DNF. Isn't it the worst? La historia es sobre Maddison una mamá soltera que tuvo a su hijo adolescente, se divorció de hombre abusivo y violento pero ella quiere una segunda oportunidad en la vida quiere darle lo mejor a su hijo y quiere superarse, tiene tres trabajos a lo largo de la semana y es estudiante universitaria en la noche, hace malabares para ser buena madre, estudiante y empleada por lo tanto un hombre no entra en sus planes pero el vecino gruñón, sexy de alado la va a ser cambiar de opinión. Me gustó mucho la historia es muy bonita y por el pasado de Maddie tiene una gran carga emocional pero no hay tanto drama. Madison is a super heroine. Years after getting out of an abusive relationship, she’s doing the best she can to give her 8yo son the best life possible. Even if it means juggling 3 jobs, school and mom duties. And I found it heartbreaking that no matter what she’s doing, people are judging her instead of supporting her. Why can’t people support her instead of making her feel bad for reaching for help. I honestly felt like slapping those PTO mom for shaming her every chance they got.

single mum romances featuring a sexy, grumpy next-door neighbour hero are my kryptonite. Wait for It, River Wild and One Percent of You are some of my favourite books, period.

He was many things. A barkeep, a friend, an artist, a lover. But one thing he was not, was monogamous. this was the best kinda slowburn. it was immaculate. it was juicy. it was full of tension and pining. they didn’t even kiss until 79% but did i care???? erm no, i did not. everything between them before being intimate was so worth it, on top of the side plot of Madison navigating motherhood. I could have done with the ex-drama. The coworker drama. The soccer moms drama. `The morning after drama. THE DRAMA. Ugh. Jamie Madison son is the MOST adorable kid I have even not met!! He is full of sass, funny and so freakin' cute! The relationship between him and his mum is amazing and the way he views garrett at first it's sad that he has had to feel that way but oh so sweet. His relationship with Garrett is perfect too. It was even more surreal when Jamie brought his book out, and he and I read on the couch while Garrett stretched out on the floor, eyes closed and hands behind his head, listening.
