The day Ella has waited for is just around the corner. It’s the day she’ll marry Micha, the love of her life. But an unexpected package with a harsh reminder of Ella’s past and a once-in-a-lifetime chance for Micha to tour with his favorite bands threaten to ruin their happily ever after. Now Ella and Micha must find a way to balance their fears, their dreams, and their love…if they ever want to hear wedding bells.
Ella and Micha are one of my favorite book couples. When I finished reading The Forever of Ella and Micha I was a little sad to see their story end. And then I found out that we would be getting more of them. To say I was excited is a complete understatement. The Ever After of Ella and Micha is the perfect conclusion to their amazing story. Their journey to get to this point was not an easy one. Ir was one that was filled with pain, heartache, love and passion. If anyone deserves a happily ever after it is definitely Ella and Micha.
It is weeks before Ella and Micha's wedding day. A day we have all been waiting for. While Ella knows without a doubt that she loves Micha and wants to marry him, there are still some issues that she is dealing with mentally. Issues that she needs to face and overcome. For one she is dealing with a package that she received and in the package is something that explains so much of who her mother was. She still blames herself for her mother's death, still has fears about what effect her depression will have on her future with Micha. In order to move forward she needs to deal with the past and be able to put it behind her. She needs to believe that she is worthy of Micha's love.
Which brings us to Micha. Did I mention how much I love him? Micha has always known that Ella has been the one for him since the day he met her when they were kids. He obviously didn't know what love was back then but he knew that Ella was someone special, someone he needed and wanted to protect. Someone that he would always have in his life. Micha's love for Ella is a love that is so strong and passionate. He loves her no matter what. He wants to take care of her, make her happy, protect her. He is willing, no I should say that he wants, to be there to face all of her demons with her. He is truly an amazing person and one that I fell in love with all over again.
Ella and Micha have a love like no other. A bond formed from the time that they first met, one that has never been broken no matter what pain or heart ache that they went through over the years. this is now their time to be happy, to move on and have a future together. And while Ella's instinct is to normally run when things get too intense, too emotional or complicated she knows that with Micha by her side she can face anything. Micha is her home, her place where she feels safe. I loved watching Ella mature in this installment. For one she learns how to deal with and express her emotions better. She doesn't want to run any more, she wants to confront her past, fight the demons that have haunted her for so long. She needs to find closure when it comes to her mother's death and with her father as well. Because moving on from the past is what she needs in order to look forward to her future with Micha.
Their road to happiness has a few bumps along the way that threaten to ruin everything they have fight for. Will they be able to overcome these obstacles together and find their way to happiness?
I loved so many things about this book. I loved going back in time to relive the important moments in their life, from when they first met to that emotional, heart breaking moment on the bridge. I loved watching the two of them face it all together. These are two characters who I have loved from the very start and so sad to have to say goodbye. I laughed, smiled and cried right along with them. Jessica Sorensen has done another amazing job.

Excerpt
Baby, come on. Let them be. They deserve a beautiful wedding
not an elopement in a tacky fake church.” Lila glides her hand up the front of
his chest, stands on her tiptoes, and kisses his neck. Then she whispers
something in his ear as she plays with his hair.
I’ll admit they make a cute couple, especially now that Lila
has this whole grunge thing going. Her blond hair is chin length and streaked
with black that matches Ethan’s hair. She’s wearing jeans and a tank top that
aren’t name brand like everything she used to wear when we were living
together. Her style goes well with Ethan’s laidback look: his plaid shirt and
faded jeans and a pair of sneakers that he’s probably owned since he was
sixteen. And Lila’s average height allows her to nestle her head against
Ethan’s chest comfortably. Looking at them with the sunlight and my house in
the backdrop, I find myself wishing I had time to draw them.
After a lot of kissing and whispering in Ethan’s ear, Lila
convinces him to stop complaining and he begrudgingly agrees that Vegas is a
ridiculous idea and that Micha and I should get married in Star Grove.
“A week is not a lot of time to prepare a wedding,” Lila
declares, pulling her sunglasses over her eyes. “Not a real one with
decorations, flowers, dresses, tuxes, and guests. God, I wish we had more time
to plan this.”
“And I wish you wouldn’t take any time to plan it,” I say,
and when she frowns I sigh. “Sorry, I’m just not into wedding stuff.” I round
the car to the passenger side of the Chevelle, trailing my finger across a few
dings and chips in the black paint that were put there when Micha intentionally
crashed it into the snow bank.
Micha opens the driver door and steps back so Ethan can
climb into the backseat. “It doesn’t matter what kind of wedding we have,” he
says, “just as long as Ella’s there with me. In fact, we don’t even need
dresses and tuxes. We could even be naked and standing in my backyard and I’d
be okay.” He winks at me over the roof of the car. “As long as we’re together,
I’ll be happy and being naked would just be an added bonus.”
This makes Lila giggle as she ducks her head and hops into
the backseat with Ethan. I push the seat back, get in the car, and shut the
door, then pull the visor down to block the sunlight.
Micha adjusts the driver’s seat before he closes the door
and starts the engine. “So is everyone ready for this?” He looks around at the
three of us, but when his eyes finally land on me I know he only really cares
about my answer.
It takes me a second to answer and he notices my hesitation
and his expression starts to fall. But even though my throat feels dry I manage
to say, “Of course.” My voice trembles a little.
“Okay then.” Giving me a small but slightly forced smile, he
backs down the driveway and drives toward the highway, toward home where all of
this started. Where Micha and I first met, first talked, first played, kissed,
fooled around, danced, said I love you.
Where Micha and I began.
