There are two sides to every love story. Now hear Will’s.

Colleen Hoover’s New York Times bestselling Slammed series has brought countless readers to their knees with a whirlwind of love, passion, and heartache. 

Layken and Will’s love has managed to withstand the toughest of circumstances and the young lovers, now married, are beginning to feel safe and secure in their union. As much as Layken relishes their new life together, she finds herself wanting to know everything there is to know about her husband, even though Will makes it clear he prefers to keep the painful memories of the past where they belong. Still, he can’t resist his wife’s pleas and so he begins to untangle his side of the story, revealing for the first time his most intimate feelings and thoughts, retelling both the good and bad moments, and sharing a few shocking confessions of his own from the time when they first met.

In This Girl, Will tells the story of their complicated relationship from his point of view. Their future rests on how well they deal with the past in this final installment of the beloved Slammed series.

 

In this final installment of this series, I was yet again blown away.  I really felt sad to let go of Will and Lake.  I was pleasantly surprised that the last book was all about them reminiscing their lives from the very first time they laid eyes on each other.  This is done in such a sweet and playful way and like book 2, it is also told from Will’s point of view.  Even though it is a recap, there are a few extras thrown in that were not revealed in the first two books. 

In my opinion, this whole series is simply perfection.  Well done Colleen Hoover, well done.
