Midnight Lily by Mia Sheridan Book Review



Rating: 4 Stars

Title: Midnight Lily

Author: Mia Sheridan

Genre: New Adult/College/Contemporary Romance

Pages: 242 Pages

SUMMARY: 

A standalone romance from the New York Times bestselling author of Archer's Voice. 

Holden Scott is the prince of professional football. At least he was before he lost it all . . . or more to the point, before he threw it all away. Now he's out of a job, out of the public's good graces, and perhaps just a little out of his mind. So when a friend offers up his remote lodge in the wilds of Colorado, giving Holden some time away to get his life back on track, he can hardly say no. The last thing he expects is to see a beautiful girl in the woods—one wearing a white, lace dress who appears in the moonlight, and leaves no footprints behind. Is she a dream? A ghost? A product of his muddled imagination? Or something entirely different?

Midnight Lily is the haunting love story of two lost souls reaching for each other in the dark. A tale of healing, acceptance, and the worlds we create to protect our own hearts. It is a story of being lost, of being found, and of being in the place between.

THIS IS A STAND-ALONE SIGN OF LOVE NOVEL, INSPIRED BY VIRGO. Non-Paranormal, New Adult Contemporary Romance: Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.

REVIEW: 

The author has requested spoiler free reviews so that the reading experience isn't ruined for others. That is not as easy as it may sound! I hate to just rehash what the blurb says because that's redundant. So,  words to describe this book: 
  • Haunting
  • Heartbreaking (at times)
  • Beautiful
  • Mysterious
  • Complicated
  • Sad
  • Different 
  • Unique
 I'm a huge fan of Mia Sheridan's work so I was excited for this release! This book, however, is different from anything of hers I've read in the past. Not bad, just different.  This is a book that you need to really pay attention to the details with. It's like getting up to go to the bathroom during a movie....don't do it! You're going to miss something if you do. I will also say that this book puts in mind of a movie, but I don't want to mention the title because it will give too much away. 

The book is well written, as always. The characters are very in-depth characters and charismatic.  You want  to get to know them better. You want to root for them. This is a book that embodies the sentiment of "nobody is perfect" and maybe even "who wants perfect? Perfect is boring." What is perfect though, is these two characters together. 

This is definitely a book that will be ruined by spoilers so try to avoid them at all costs. There's not a  lot more that I can say without giving things away. I hope you enjoy!
