A FEW THOUGHTS. . .
Time to gush, ladies!
THIS is your next weekend read, your beach read, whatever you want to call it! Guarded Dreams is another incredible book by an amazing storyteller, LJ Evans.
First of all, the title is perfection. As soon as you start reading it, you’ll see why:)
Ava and Eli are on their set paths, and they are both fiercely protective of their dreams—even when it means they can’t be together. But as with all the best love stories, fate has its own plans, too.
LJ has such an enormous talent for creating the most vivid, endearing characters that make you carve out a special little spot in your heart for each of them to live forever. I instantly fell in love with Ava and Eli and their story. Their sweet, slow burn romance is packed full of ALL. THE. FEELS.
And even though you realize their happy ending will take time, and understanding, and lots of patience, you will root for them wholeheartedly every step of the way.
This book will make you laugh, cry, swoon, and even get angry (her dad = grrr).
LJ has created a beautiful new book family for us to fall in love with. I absolutely adored it!
SYNOPSIS:
“No one can take away a love story that is yours.”
Once upon a summer, a boy unexpectedly meets a girl at the beach. Their bodies and souls know what their brains do not. They are meant to be one. But…
Eli dreams about being a US Coast Guard.
Ava dreams about being a country music star.
Those dreams send them careening in different directions, and their summer love story is left as a wish that never came true.
Four years later, Eli’s Coast Guard career is threatened, and Ava’s dreams are shadowed by her past, just as fate brings them together once more in New York City.
As their lives start to crumble, they find the possibility of a second chance in each other. If they’ll only listen to what their souls are whispering and realize that, sometimes, the best dream to come true is simply to have loved.
Inspired by Luke Bryan’s “Sunrise, Sunburn, Sunset” comes a novel from award-winning author, LJ Evans, about all the ways dreams can be chased, lost, and remade and how love can guide you through.
