I was excited to read A Billon Reasons Why by Kristin Billerbeck. I have to say that from the first page, the book had my attention and kept it until the end of the story. Billerbeck has created fun and interesting characters that you feel like you know from the moment you meet them. I loved how the story capitvated my interest and threw in a few surprises in the plot.
Katie is focused on her career as a special needs teacher and plans to marry her current boyfriend because he fits the description of what she thinks her life should look like if she wants a stable marriage and family where everything fits neatly in "the box." And then, in walks the love of her life from 8 years ago...the one that got away. From the moment Luc walks in her classroom door, the magnetism between the two characters is charged with energy and you know that Katie should be with Luc because he is the one she has truly loved all along. Katie loves all things that have to do with the 1940s and the references to music and movie history from that era made this book even more enjoyable and interesting.
As Katie returns to her home in New Orleans, we see the story unfold as Katies tries to bring closure to the love she had for Luc so that she can move on with her practical and organized life. But as we all hope for, in the end, true love prevails. Although I thought a lot of the story was predictable, I enjoyed every page of this book. It felt like I was watching a favorite chick flick that you never get tired of. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading a good romance.
I received a copy of this book to review from Book Sneeze, but was not obligated to give a positive opinion.
