\"Catching<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ever feel like your entire life has been planned out for you before you were even born?<\/p>\n

As the only girl in the Sutter family and daughter of an \u2018almost Olympian\u2019, my parents have always had goals for me. I never questioned them and always strived to be the best. I thought I knew what I wanted in life until I didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

One mistake, and the straight path I had planned was suddenly crooked. Goals that I\u2019d worked for since I was little didn\u2019t seem so important anymore; And the one place I never thought I\u2019d go back to was the only place I wanted to be\u2026 home, where I found comfort in the most unlikely place.<\/p>\n

At six years my senior, Brock Foster has always been unattainable. He was the boy that filled my fantasies. I resigned myself years ago to never feel his touch, never know what his kisses were like, or to have him wrap me in his arms. I never thought when I came home that he would still be there, or that he\u2019d remember me.<\/p>\n

Sometimes the future that we think we want isn\u2019t what we need. Sometimes those bumps and turns mold us into who we were always meant to be, and sometimes they lead us to who we should have always been with.<\/p>\n

Brock Foster helped me to embrace my path. He taught me to stop and catch the raindrops, and open myself to love again.<\/p>\n

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader\u2019s Copy of this book.<\/p>\n

Returning to the Sutter family is like returning home. Seeing Emma all grown up is wonderful.<\/p>\n

Coming homework the summer after being away at school Emma is hiding a lot from her family and when she does tell them she doesn’t tell them everything about why she came home. No one knows the whole truth but her. She doesn’t expect to find the boy of her teenage dreams has come back to town and is all grown up and looking yummy. She wasn’t looking for love, but that is what she found.<\/p>\n

Brock wasn’t looking to find someone, he especially wasn’t looking to start dating Emma Sutter. He remembers her as a teen, and now that she is all grown up she just……….. But he knows when she finds out his secret it’s gonna be bad, heck when her dad finds out he’s gonna be dead. Why? Because Nick Sutter is his boss!!!!<\/p>\n

D’Agostino never fails to make me cry, even if she isn’t trying too. Emma and Brock are hot and sweet rolled into one. Nick and Leah are everything they were in their story, but better as parents. When Emma has to explain the real reason she came home for the summer, her parents are unbelievably supportive of her and Brock shows what a true man is by listening and following his heart.<\/p>\n

When she goes back to school will they be able to make a long distance relationship work? Are her parents still going to support their relationship or will her dad make it so hard for Brock that he has to quit his job? I’m not telling!!!! However, I will tell you this; if you’ve never read The Shattered Series, which is about Emma’s parents, you can totally read this book. It’s the start of a totally new series and you will not be lost. Im looking forward to the next book and I hope that Mel puts Aaron in his place.<\/p>\n
