Never Again

Candyce Kirk

I can tell you I've never been happier to have the second part of a duology as I was with this one. Never Lasting left my heart in pieces and I couldn't let that be the ending of Tali and Jude. Luckily the author realized her readers wouldn't be able to wait too long without getting more of these characters.

Never Again starts many years later, Tali is now 34 and has started her amazing career in the music world. Blue is the Color is her band. She manages them and has for the last seven years. It's so much fun getting more of a behind the scenes look of what she does after the Blue is the Color series. She's a strong, independent woman and loves what she does. Since Jude, she hasn't had much of a love life, but that doesn't stop her from living.

Jude wasn't at a good place at the end of Never Lasting. He's come a long way since then and his lfe has really changed. One thing he hasn't stopped thinking about it Tali. He was still kind of sneaky to get what he wanted, but I loved his motives. I loved how Jude has really come to know himself and what he needs. He's really changed and has a really good support system.

Once again, this author gives us an amazing love story. So much as happened, but there love is still there. Never Again has the perfect mix of past and present. I love that we were filled in on the missing years with the important events between them. It breaks your heart, but really shows us how much they loved each other even if it was toxic at times. Jude and Tali slowly start finding their way back to each other while on tour and I loved reading the trips they took together during some free time.

This book is really hard to describe and review, because it hits you in all the feels. That being said, I don't want to give away too much either. I will say that this story gives both characters what they deserve and need. On top of an epic love story, it's always interesting when we get to see our favorite characters. I loved the Blue is the Color series, so they're definitely a favorite. Also, characters we meet in the first book are also revisited and my heart was very happy when I finished reading. Jude and Tali will always have a special place in my heart!
