The One for Me (The Arrowood Brothers #3)

Love is a sacrifice that we make at the expense of our own wants.

This best friends to lovers story is beautiful romance that definitely packs an emotional punch, bringing me tears yet filled with plenty of laughter and that happy feeling that I crave in my romances. The love Sean and Devney share with each other just felt so right. They have experienced so much together throughout their lives and those shared moments bonded them from a young age and make them able to tackle any tragedy life throws their way. Yet transitioning from friends to lovers is not without some bumps in the road, especially with the secrets that lie between them. With Seans life as a baseball superstar and Devneys love of her small town life, a love between them will take work but is certainly worth the journey to get there.

Ill wait for your heart to be ready because mine is ready enough for the both of us.

The heartache and the fear of losing each other as best friends if a relationship between them failed really had my emotions all over the place. They had been best friends for over 20 years, so youd think they know everything about each other, but some secrets were still between them. Devney is carrying a long buried secret that keeps her tied to Sugarloaf and the thought of leaving terrifies her. My heart ached over her long carried guilt and shame, I felt lighter once all was revealed, like my heart sighed with her trusting Sean with everything she had endured. She is such a strong woman yet opening herself fully to a kind, sweet and caring man like Sean to love her with no boundaries cemented my love for this couple. The passion they have with each other brings the steam, Sean is a man who knows how to make a woman feel cherished in the bedroom.

Sean is home. Hes comfort and the sunshine that breaks through the clouds. Hes laughter in the rain and the constant in a sea of uncertainty. Ive never had to wonder where I stand with him.

And let me tell you – Sean Arrowood absolutely stole my heart and had me swooning over his charm from the get go. Some characters just make you wish they were real and the brothers in this series certainly make it tough for a girl to chose her favorite. Sean is a sweet, charming and stand up man, a truly dreamy hunk, with the cover model being the PERFECT visual.

You dont have to have me as a dream, Devney. Im the reality, and Im willing to give you everything.

My heart should be used to being smashed to smithereens and then delicately put back together by Corinne Michael’s words, but inevitably, she manages to destroy and heal me with each new release and The One for Me is no different. I fell hard for Sean, the third Arrowood brother to steal my heart. And he can keep it, what with his sweet words and over the top gestures…he’s definitely speaking my love languages!

“You’re so beautiful. I could do nothing but look at you all day and find something new that I find perfect.”
“I’m not perfect.”
“You are for me.”

While they may have always been best friends, Devney never stood a chance once Sean put his mind to winning her heart but I understood her reticence. There were so many factors that went into her decision making and my heart just hurt for her. Okay, that’s a lie. I was gutted but Sean was such a beautiful balm to my battered and broken heart. Any girl would be lucky to be the one he chooses.

“You’re the one who said I have to choose one or the other, Devney, and I choose you. Each time. Every day and twice on Sundays.”

I have absolutely fallen head over heels for these Arrowood brothers We are getting a brother each book, and learning how one tragic event shaped them. Sean and Devney were no different.

I want to wake up each day with you beside me. I would make you happy, give you the world. Ill stand by your side when you falter and when you win. There wont be a day that youre alone because I will always be here.

Sean might be the brother that makes me fall the hardest. He has charm, witty banter and loves so deeply for his best friend.

If you want a small town, family saga with some true angsty emotions… pick this up. This has true Corinne Michaels angst and its so unbelievably good!

**4.5 stars**
Well, Corinne Michaels has hit a homerun again! She is the queen of emotional romance, and this one strikes you directly in the feels! This is the third book in the Arrowood Brothers series. Each book is a standalone, but I would recommend the entire series because theyve all been terrific. This is Seans book and his best friend, Devney. Sean was so easy to love. Hes driven, kind, sweet, and swoon worthy. Devney was a little harder to get a read on. She kept things tightly shut and had a lot of secrets, that I felt like you really couldnt know her for most of the book. Sean and Devney have been best friends since childhood but never acted on their feelings for each other for fear of ruining their friendship. But, man, when they did, it was amazing! These two were so great together, but then a major tragedy strikes. I was totally surprised by this turn of events and sobbed through it all. Its a beautiful, emotional, friends to lovers romance in the most incredible series. You need to read this one and really all books in this series!

*I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This is a wonderfully written third book. It is powerful and flows smoothly. You will want to start and just keep reading continuously to find out the conclusion to Devney Maxwell and Sean Arrowood heart gripping story. But on the way be prepared for a rollercoaster of emotions to surface. You will experience tears, anger, despair, dismay, love and joy.

But will they realise or acknowledge their love for each other? Can friends become lovers? How will their secrets affect their awareness and attitude of each other? And what will have to change?
