Until I Get You
Reviews

Such a beautiful book. It really kept me on my toes and had just the right amount of twists.

It felt like I was reading a Wattpad story.

Very, very intense, but great. I was fully captivated. Check the TWs!

This was my book club pick for the month and I did really like this one. It had a lot of tropes that I really like and I did really like the characters. I don’t really think it can be a dark hockey romance when the hockey wasn’t prominent in the book, especially when her soccer, which she didn’t even play in 95% of the book was talked about just as much as the hockey. I also would call it dark romance when really it is dealing with traumatic events. Now if it would be marketed like the cover says on the book as a romantic suspense I would say it accomplished that. But the two main marketing points just don’t seem accurate to me. Everyone has differing opinions on this though. I did get a little bored as I was reading in the middle of the book. The beginning was good and the end was strong but the middle just kind of got to me and I struggled a bit. I do believe that Lyla was a strongly written character and endured so much and was persistent to keep going. For Lachlan it was hard to imagine him as this dark character because of the energy he gave in the first part of the book but when it ended I saw the potential and was looking forward to it but it felt flat to me by how abruptly it felt halted. As a romantic suspense it was a good book.

“Because the world would be empty without you,” he said. “Because we wouldn’t have met, and my soul would be lost for the rest of my life, searching for yours.”
This book made me really mad. It was moody, suspenseful, and overall a lot. After a while I just needed to power through.

Lachlan Duke will always have my heart ! And Lyla James? she is one of the most badass FMC, I think I've ever read. There was nothing that could tear her down.

I don’t know how to feel about this book. Generally, I enjoyed it. I think it would probably fall closer to dark romance over romantic suspense, there wasn’t any mystery/ thriller aspect although there were many dark themes. And all the tropes. There were parts I enjoyed and parts I didn’t.
















Highlights

If he’s a boyfriend, she’ll have to break up with him. If he’s a friend, fuck, it’s not like I can tell her who she can and can’t be friends with. I’m not that much of an asshole.
The one time Lachlan was actually reasonable. (Sorta.)

He’d rather kill her than let anyone else have her. I’d rather die than live in a world without her in it.

“Because the world would be empty without you,” he said. “Because we wouldn’t have met, and my soul would be lost for the rest of my life, searching for yours.”

“I love you more than I hate anything.”

no kid deserves to be given broken promises by someone who was supposed to protect them and show them how the world worked.

I found ways to distract myself from feeling anything at all. It was quite possibly the best and worst skill my mind had acquired throughout all of this. Best, because only a handful of brave souls tried to get me to open up again. Worst, because once you learned how to numb yourself from pain, you took the risk of it happening to all of your emotions.
