Book Review: The Forever Girl, by Jill Shalvis, 4 stars




When Maze returns to Wildstone for the wedding of her estranged bff and the sister of her heart, it’s also a reunion of a once ragtag team of teenagers who had only each other until a tragedy tore them apart and scattered them wide.

Now as adults together again in the lake house, there are secrets and resentments mixed up in all the amazing childhood memories. Unexpectedly, they instantly fall back into their roles: Maze their reckless leader, Cat the den mother, Heather the beloved baby sister, and Walker, a man of mystery. 

Life has changed all four of them in immeasurable ways. Maze and Cat must decide if they can rebuild their friendship, and Maze discovers her long-held attraction to Walker hasn’t faded with the years but has only grown stronger.

Review: I had this book on my reading list for a few months and I'm glad I finally found the time to read it. It's not Jill Shalvis' best, but I liked the plot and the characters (even if a few details are too over-embellished to be entirely realistic and Maze acts like a crazy chick sometimes).


   


Towards the end I felt the plot was dragging a bit too much, but it was still an enjoyable summer read. Recommended. 

(and in case you're wondering, no, you don't have to read the previous books in the series before this one). 

Happy readings!
