View all 5 comments. The main reasons? The juvenile characterization of the 30 years old heroine— a somehow usual trait for Zapata 's heroines — and the writing that seemed to be at its repetitiveness peak—even for Zapata. Heroine: " Fuckface, deepshit, fucker, asshole, dickface, jackass. LOL I would have given up on " The Best Thing " if not for a friend telling me to go on until that "trope" I shall not talk about was revealed.
The blurb is extremely vague for a reason, yes. I was hoping for some good, stiff I was also expecting to be given pretty good reason for him to stay away So I kept on reading, hoping to connect with the slow burn, the romance or some of that angst I was hoping for What I got instead was a cute, adorable family portrait. Once again, Mariana Zapata did extremely good with her secondary characters, all were extremely likeable, and gave the story a relatable and affectionate dimension.
That being said Not only this, but I don't need to read 7 times the complete description of the hero. What was that about the hero's shadow always appearing out of the blue, like in every scene he's introduced by the heroine telling us she "knows" that shadow, that shape, this frame, those strong shoulders, how the height she was staring at was so familiar Oh, it's Jonah!
Lenny, girl, get yourself some prescription glasses, you need them. Even I knew it was freaking Jonah before you did. Because I was curious I've read the acknowledgements part so I know the author has an editorial team That height looked awfully familiar.
So did those shoulders, and that haircut and color. What the hell was he doing here? The man on the other end groaned and moaned without actually using words, eating up the time it took me to make it to the bar, still holding my phone to my face, while I stopped directly to the side of the man I knew.
A little too well. It was Jonah. I knew that haircut, but it was the height and that damn body that really struck me.
By the time I slammed the door shut and opened the rear door, Jonah was there," "The size of the shadow warned me it was Jonah, and my stupid-ass heart squeezed itself tight at his big smiling head" Slow burn or no burn at all?
It seems more and more difficult for me to say which with each new Zapata 's book I'm reading. A slow burn romance would make me want to desperately turn the pages to reach that ultimate climax the author built between two characters.
A good slow burn should provide flutters, hope, elation, want, need ALL the feels! Is this book deemed a slow burn romance because of the painfully slow pace the author set in addition to the endless repetitions? This wasn't a slow burn romance for me. As I stated in the beginning, the story was cute, the writing made it hard to get into it, sadly. So I ended pretty underwhelmed. The epilogue was really sweet and will make you cry if you have a tender heart.
Nov 26, Rachel Reads Ravenously rated it really liked it Shelves: ebooks , romance , new-adult-mania. I really enjoyed this book by Mariana Zapata. And this book was no exception. Buy it and read it if you want to know more!!! Jul 26, Eva rated it it was amazing Shelves: book-hoarder-reading-challenge. This book. It made me laugh and cry, it kept me up at night. Mariana never disappoints.
Her characters, no matter how small, are all so well thought out. I love the way she explores family dynamics. So good! Aug 14, Carol rated it really liked it Shelves: read-in , kindle-free-books , sweet-guy , favorite-author , four-stars. All of her books are essentially slow burns this one included but I think this might be the first one that is really more of a "second chance" love story and that would seem to create an additional obstacle - usually in a Maria 3.
I think that is one of the reasons why it personally took me a little longer to invest in this story unlike every other book that I have read by the fabulous Ms. What I did love about this book however and also every other one that I have read by this author is the time and attention that she invests into her characters. We really get to know who these people are and what makes them tick. All these small details that tell us so much aren't superfluous or wasted in any way - they do serve to enhance the story further, also giving it a huge emotional boost as well as making us fall "deeply in love" with the heroes and heroines of these books.
No other romance author consistently does that half as well, in my opinion. She is such a masterful storyteller. Some of the relationships in this book especially that of Lenny and her Grandpa Gus were just so sweet and heartwarming to behold with their special brand of snarkines, humor, loyalty, love and respect.
This book really had a lot going on emotionally that's for sure and I am a little bit puzzled as to why I didn't love it more. I definitely "really" loved the second half of this book. Maybe I just needed more time to get to know Lenny and Jonah and warm up to them?? This is a book that I definitely want to revisit and explore a second time.
Personally, I must say that I have enjoyed all of this author's books and she is an automatic one-click buy for me. View all 14 comments. Jul 30, Lacey laceybooklovers rated it really liked it Shelves: adult , author-of-color , single-parent , contemporary-romance , second-chance-romance.
Leaning towards 3. And I have to admit I didn't get into the book until halfway through, but that may have been because I've been in a slight book funk. And that epilogue? Famous for her slow-burn romances, Mariana never fails to deliver nothing short of magic every single time I dive into one of her stories.
Lenny DeMaio is determined to overcome the painful loss she has experienced in her life. With a supportive family and friends, Lenny has found joy and happiness just being with the ones she loves.
When the source of her pain and heartbreak shows up unannounced, her entire world is rocked to the core! Jonah Collins only knows that he wants to win back the girl that he lost. He has no idea of the damage he has caused. As Jonah and Lenny reunite, the meeting is less than sweet. However, it doesn't take the emotions and passion from the past to come sweeping back and remind these two what brought them together in the first place.
Lenny and Jonah are both dynamic characters and of course the secondary characters continue to enhance the plot as they interact with our main characters. Mariana's writing never fails to amaze me with the quick wit, lyrical writing, and unforgettable characters. But she had never warned me how fucking hard it was to live up to that. Aug 18, Kiki rated it it was ok Shelves: are-they-batshit-crazy-or-am-i.
Are they honey coloured or are the fucking brown???? View 1 comment. Jul 29, Jessica rated it it was ok. When I started this book, I was so annoyed with how redundant the story was. As for Jonah, the love interest?
Seriously, his character had NOTHING going for him except for that he was a rugby player who was currently between teams and that he was a giant. And the main character never let us forget how massive he was. And it was just kind of brushed aside and they moved on. Can you feel my annoyance from here? While Mariana Zapata is known for her slow burn romances, this book was just plain slow.
I didn't care about anything. The redundancy in this one was so surprising to me because I don't remember that in the other books I've read by this author. I could have done without reading this one and it's definitely my least favorite from Mariana Zapata to date. View all 6 comments. Jul 26, Danielle Rotko rated it liked it.

I devoured this book in the best way I know how, on holiday, with my full and undivided attention, just what any Zapata book deserves. This story has a split sport context of MMA and rubgy…hello…this is fine by me. What a p I devoured this book in the best way I know how, on holiday, with my full and undivided attention, just what any Zapata book deserves. What a picture was painted, I loved the home of Maio House.
Each of these characters had my heart and all equally, I cannot favour one over the other. Lenny was a woman let down, let down in the biggest way.
Each chapter start gave a very brief past context to the ways in which Lenny had been let down and the more that the book progressed, the more those chapters starts kicked me in the gut. This big, bumbling, shy and gorgeous creature was swoon-heaven but guess what, Lenny was a champion MMA fighter, she could totally kick his ass with a foot swipe and her mouth.
There was nothing he could say that would possibly hurt me. I had prepared for this. What was it that he wanted to explain?
Why had he disappeared? The unexpected element of this book was thrilling to me and this aspect was written so well, my heart was warm and cozy, wrapped up in the family-ness of this book.
Sorry for the vagueness but it is necessary. This second chance story with a deep connection at the heart, was fantastic. It was written with a style that just seemed to appeal to my mind and heart. That said, that epilogue was just right for me.
Go read, go love, go savour. Re-read by audio and it gave all the feels again. The narration was excellent and the dual dialogue was great. I was so taken by the crafting, the emotions it stimulated in me, and then the slow burn which built throughout the story. Zapata also created a way to make the family surround her characters to become a living breathing reality. True feelings were generated, nothing manipulated or heavy-handed.
To this day, it is still one of my very special reads. From that first experience, I have read many other books from Zapata and the one thing which I feel is necessary is patience. Lucky for me, I happen to be a patient reader, primarily. Oh, there are times when I will lose it and have to just walk away from a book But when reading this author, because of the way she weaves her stories and my knowledge of this process I am prepared The Reward is Great.
Mariana Zapata's way of writing is so layered you some times don't even realize how she is wrapping you up in a cocoon of love, strength, and relationships. It happens in the details and snippets of banter and internal talk. It happens when you become just as incensed as the character who is pissed. You start to think about how you would deal with these situations and want to support whatever is decided.
You become joyous with all the little glimpses of the love exchanged through stupid talk between family. You long for the touch or caress and pray these people will crossover to the place where they understand their love for each other. You are involved whether you want to be or not.
I went into this read with only the bare minimum, the blub the author wrote. It totally worked for me and I think is the true way to experience this. The only other thing I would add But remember, the end result is so worth it. But Better Late than Never Mariana Zapata is an Auto Click for me So since I have No Idea about this It shall be a surprise for me Which could be Jul 26, Jamie rated it it was amazing Shelves: heroine-i-loved , faves , hero-i-loved , hero-redeemed-imo.
I cannot wait!!! As always with this author, I loved it! I loved sweet Jonah and everything about this! I cracked up laughing at the part about his Stuart little voice!! That epilogue had me crying though! I truly feel it is a better reading experience this way. I am all for spoilers, but I honestly feel the vagueness made the experience better!
