I loved the first two books in this trilogy and have been waiting patiently (not too patiently) for the final book. WOW - what a fantastic book. To get the absolute most enjoyment out of this book, you really need to read all three books in order.
Everything we Keep was mainly Aimee's story, Everything we Left Behind was James' story and Everything we Give is Ian's story - and what a story it is! Even though Ian is a successful photographer with a wife that he loves and a daughter he adores, he is haunted by his younger years and a mistake that he he made that drove his mother away and destroyed his family. With James back in the picture and a major photography trip for National Geographic, Ian has to decide whether to ignore his past or try to fix his past mistakes at the chance of ruining his future.
Everything we Give totally wraps up all of the issues from the first two books plus gives us a close-up view of Ian's life. This was a fantastic book and the perfect ending to the trilogy.
Thanks to the author for a copy of this book to read and review. All opinions are my own.
If I could give this book 10 stars, I would. That is just how much I loved the conclusion of Kerry Lonsdale's Everything series.
Readers (myself included) have begged Kerry for Ian's story since Book One (#TeamIan), and let me tell you, Everything We Give was worth the wait...the long agonizing wait!
Ian's story is quite powerful. Kerry writes with such detail that you can feel all the emotions Ian is feeling. It will bring you to tears and make you smile. He is one of the strongest male leads I have read in a long time. He has such an intense love for his wife Aimee, and their daughter Cat that most would dream for. How he ended up this strong is nothing short of amazing.
This book will leave you with a nice book hangover, and definitely still wanting more - though this does tie the series up very nicely.
Kerry is one of my top go-to authors and with Everything We Give, she knocks it out of the park once again!
This is the third and final installment of The Everything series and it does not disappoint! This book tells Ian's story. There is alot to learn abour Ian and his story just makes him all the more endearing.
This book, as with all the others in this series, was written beautifully and sends you on an emotional roller coaster. I highly recommend this book!
I was fortunate enough to get an advance reader's copy of this gem of a book.
Once again, Kerry Lonsdale captures the reader from the start. The characters we've followed through the first two story lines develop further and we gain insight into who they are based on their history.
My heart broke for Sarah and the childhood that Ian was robbed of. Kerry paints a vivid picture of the beauty of the love Ian and Aimee share that allows him to truly overcome that loss.
I thoroughly enjoyed the twists of the story surrounding Laney. But I won't be a "spoiler" for those who haven't read the book yet.
If you haven't read the first two books in the series, do it! Then put the icing on the cake with this one!
This is the 3rd and final book in the Everything series. You can read it as a stand alone but trust me you want to read the first 2 before reading Ian's story. Aimee, Ian, and James's story is intertwined and the entire story is honest, true, and simply amazing. I completely lost myself in Ian's story. As you learn about Ian's past, it makes you realize it's what makes Ian the man he is today. His love for Aimee and Caty comes through with every page. My favorite scene in the book is the tea party between Ian and Caty. This amazing book made me laugh out loud, ugly cry, and simply immerse myself in the beautiful story. This was the perfect ending to this series. I received an advanced readers copy from the author and NetGalley. All opinions are my own.
My thoughts on Everything We Give by Kerry Lonsdale
Wow, it is amazingly good! I loved the way the series ended. Ian and Aimee are great characters and the chemistry they have is off the charts. The ending is awesome.
The writing is flawless, and I am a fan of Kerry's for life! Bravo on the different themes that are woven into this story and series.
P.S. I was given this arc through Netgalley and Author. This is my honest review.
This is the long awaited story I've been wanting for two years! You'll get all the feels with this one: elation, sadness, anger, happiness, karma, the list goes on and on. This book is Ian's story and readers should definitely read the first two books in the series before diving in to this one. I don't want to spoil anything, but if you were rooting for Ian in Everything We Keep, you should most definitely read this book!
