I received an eARC of this book via Netgalley. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of this review.

A sweet, slow-burn love story with a small town setting equals my perfect read…..The Way You Love Me by Miranda Liasson is the second book in Angel Falls and follows Sara’s younger sister Gabby after she leaves her fiancé in search of more.

I loved Sara’s story in Then There Was You so I was excited to go back to Angel Falls for Gabby’s story. Gabby is the spunky sister, the wild card so to speak. She has a free spirit and her ex has done a number to her self-esteem. BUT one good thing to come from the failed relationship — Gabby is done settling. She’s pursuing her dreams and nothing will stop her, except maybe her new professor.

Caden Marshall isn’t all that much older than Gabby, but he is her creative writing professor. After a failed marriage and a one-hit wonder book, Cade isn’t looking for a relationship. He’s looking for stability for himself and his young daughter, Ava. I think I fell in love with Cade from the start. He’s a struggling single father who adores his daughter and will do anything to make her smile. He’s bitter though from his divorce and rightfully so. She was a terrible person! Gabby brings Cade out of his shell a little and makes him think there may be more to life than just stability.

Overall I really enjoyed Cade and Gabby’s story. They bring out the best in each other. And little Ava steals the show! She’s precious, and Gabby finds herself just as enamored with her as she is with Cade. If you enjoy a sweet, slow-burn romance, I highly recommend it.

Note: While this book is a part of a series, it can be read as a standalone.
