Look After Me by Elena Matthews

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars!
Wow. I loved this book so much! I hadn't read the first one so I was a bit worried I wouldn't know what was going on, but this book acts as a standalone even though it is the second in the series. I really can't wait to go back and read the first one in the series (Look After You) now too! I really hope the next book has more of Sebastian and Addison too.
This book was so emotionally powerful. Sebastian is a man who has been on three tours in Afghanistan, but that does not break him. Ava does. He had it all worked out to have the perfect life with Ada, but a few things happen to Ava while he is still away. The love and heartbreak he has for Ava is exactly how you feel when you lose someone you love so much.
This novel definitely pulled at my heartstrings several times. I really loved Addison. We are similar in age, and I know how she feels about the dating scene. She seems like such a great recovery counselor too, and she loves her job. Addison is so selfless, but Sebastian does not realize for awhile, that he is as well.
I love Sebastian, he is a perfect book boyfriend, except for maybe a few scenes, but you can always find it in your heart to forgive him. Elena did such a great job writing this. Sebastian didn't seem like some guy we dream about that doesn't truly exist...he is very real. He sometimes is a jerk, and says a lot of guy things that make women roll their eyes. He doesn't want to be in a relationship like so many guys these days, she really nailed it with his character.
I have to admit too, I have a soft spot for Seattle, so since the book was located there it definitely made my day reading it. I read this fast, and I kept telling myself I would go to bed after one more chapter. However, I ended up staying up until 3am finishing the book, then another hour was spent just thinking about how amazing it was. I am definitely a fan of Elena Matthews now for sure!
