Review: Find Me (The Found Duet, #2) by Laurelin Paige

The Conclusion of Gwen and JC's Story

Gwen Anders came to The Sky Launch to begin fresh, away from the horrors of her past. She fit in quickly, becoming good friends with her co-manager, Alayna Withers and the owner of the club, Hudson Pierce. Though the circumstances that brought her here were not the best, she's never felt more at home.

But starting a new life means letting go. And there are some things she doesn't want to leave behind - like JC, the man who taught her how to let loose. The man she wasn't supposed to fall in love with. The man she doesn't want to lose.

Now, with the reason she ran still a threat, Gwen fears she'll never be able to move on completely. And if she does, can she still hold out hope that JC loves her enough to come and find her?

Stop if you have not read Free Me, book one of the The Found Duet.  I don't want to ruin the series for you.

If you want to feel fulfilled this is the story for you! Find Me is the conclusion of JC' and Gwen's love story. It's an emotional roller coaster ride filled with resentment, angst, worry, anger and fulfillment.

We return to Gwen attempting to be more content. Although her heart belongs to JC, she follows through by having a "No string attached. No Romance. No commitment." non-relationship with Hudson's college freshman brother Chandler. Just as Chandler starts to become attached, Gwen ends it. Soon after, JC returns as a witness in the trial of Ralphio Mennezzo, the man who murdered JC's fiance.

"Almost twelve months since he'd told me that he was the key witness in a murder. That he had to go into protection until the trial. I had no way of knowing when the trial would end, and when it did, he was the one who had to find me."

There are a lot of emotional twists and turns. Gwen doubts JC's true feelings. She really struggles with low self esteem. She can't accept JC's love without doubt. Her father plays be big role in her struggles. I enjoyed the way Gwen handled her father and her self discovery.

"I've learned that recently, in spite of how I was raised. Biology is not what defines a relationship. It's love and sacrifice. That's what truly makes a family."

There's a lot of self discover that occurs in this story and all for the good. There are definitely parts that will make you worry, maybe give you a little heart burn but it's worth it in the end. When a story drives your emotions, you know that you are in for a good ride!
