American Love Story by Adriana Herrera
5.0
I only regret that I jumped right into this book without having read the previous ones in the series. It works fine as a stand alone, but seeing the cameo's from the previous couples and references to past events made me wish I had the full story.
Adriana Herrera wrote complex characters who aren't going to be "fixed" by finding love, who have to work for their happy ending, and who have to have hard conversations in order to be together. Easton and Patrice have very real conversations about their different backgrounds and what that means for them to be together, while also recognizing their own flaws and the things they still have to learn. I just love that Herrera could write an interracial couple in today's tense society without making everything seem to be magically fixed once they're together.
Thanks to Carina Press and Netgalley for my eARC in exchange for an honest review.
Audio: I had to triple check, but there is a single narrator for this dual POV book, but he is able to seamlessly and consistently narrate in different voices for Easton's and Patrice's POVs and speech.
