Tell Me Again was an enjoyable story about a second chance at love and apart from some issues with the hero, I enjoyed it.

To escape her neglectful mother and reckless twin sister, Samantha Carlton used her newfound career in modeling to leave town which unfortunately meant leaving behind the boy she loved. After Sam broke his heart, Trevor Kincaid sought comfort from her sister which resulted in a daughter. After Grace tracks Sam down, Sam and Trevor are forced to resolve what happened all those years ago. If the two don’t find a way to deal with what’s between them, they risk losing the love they’ve only just rediscovered.

Sam changed her life for the better after going through a few rough years following her twin sister’s death. She gave up modeling and opened a camp for troubled teens in Colorado. She’s turned into an incredibly strong person and has done a great job building a life for herself. She has a wonderfully supportive group of friends and enjoys the work she does. However, she does still feel immense guilt over Bryce’s death and how their relationship was in the years before Bryce died.

Trevor was quite frankly, an ass. He never got over Sam leaving and does everything he can to hold it against her. He never defends her when people talk bad about her and he was constantly threatening to not let her see Grace. I will admit he built a good life for Grace and for the most part is a great father to her. However, when Grace tries to make decisions for herself, he does everything he can to keep her from chasing her dreams so he can hold onto the notion she’s still his little girl.

Because of my issues with Trevor, I was never fully on board with his and Sam’s relationship. The two had great chemistry, but ultimately I couldn’t look past how poorly Trevor treated Sam. He does have a bit of a turnaround near the end of the book, but sadly it was too late in my opinion. I enjoyed Sam’s relationship with Grace a lot more. The two start off very unsure of each other but build a great relationship over time.

The side characters are what made this book so enjoyable for me. Not realizing it was part of a series, I had read the fourth book, Meant for You, first and fell in love with most of the characters then. Jenny continued to be my favorite character in this book and I enjoyed seeing more of her. Sam and her friends have such a great friendship and are incredibly supportive of each other. Some of my favorite scenes were when the four women all got together.

Overall, I enjoyed Tell Me Again for Sam and the side characters and will be checking out the other books in this series soon.

I really enjoyed the book, it has everything I love in a novel from start to finish. I can’t wait to read what the author has planned next!

This was a fairly quick read, but I didn't really enjoy it. Trevor was awful to Samantha throughout the book. I never really understood why they would get back together when he acts like he did with her. I kept hoping I would like this couple, but never did. The fact that Trevor had a child with Samantha's sister after she left made it all a bit strange and cringy.

This book makes you believe in second chances and that Karma can and does play a part. Great summer read!!

A very real story of how events in the past can cause problems in others lives. This book had well developed characters. Enough of the back story for the reader to understand why and how current events were happening! I would definitely purchase books by Michelle Major in the future. I received an advance copy from Netgalley.com in exchange for my honest review.
