**This
book is a Contemporary Romance and contains mature subject matter. It is not
intended for those under 17 years of age.**
Unforgiven is book 3 in the Unbreakable series. This is Matt and Lindsay’s story. We first met them in Undone and I completely
fell in love with them and couldn’t wait for their story. Unforgiven is a roller coaster ride of
emotions. Matt and Lindsay had a lot of
obstacles to face making for a very emotional ride.
Matt and Lyndsay are happily in love. They have been for quite some time. They have been keeping their relationship a
secret from their family ad friends but decide it’s time to let the cat out of
the bag. Matt and Lynds are in a great
place. They have each other their family loves them being together. They couldn’t be happier. But sometimes life decides to throw you a
curve ball. And you can either face it
together or let it destroy you.
Unfortunately for Lyndsay and Matt that curve ball caused some major
heartache.
I honestly do not want to go into too much detail about the
plot of this story. Lyndsay had an
important decision to make regarding her career. But wanting to follow her dreams and not pass
up a great offer may cause her to lose the one man she has ever loved. Unforgiven is Lyndsay and Matt’s story but I
think it is more about Lyndsay’s journey to finding herself. She made some poor decisions along the way
but sometimes we need to make mistakes and learn from them. She had a tough time once she moved her life
to Arizona. She missed her life at home,
her family, the man she loved. And
trying to get ahead in her career proved to be more of a challenge. She coped with those issues the only way she
knew how. They weren't in a good way and
were certainly not healthy.
I will be honest in saying that at times this book
completely frustrated me. I loved Matt
and have loved him from the moment that we first met him.
I completely understood his feelings and his reactions to the situations
in this story. I felt his hurt and his pain and honestly felt so sad for him at
times. But at the same time I just felt
that Lyndsay wasn’t the only one to blame for their situation. I think a lot of miscommunication on both
parts played a big role in their heartache.
Lyndsay made some really poor decisions and at times I
wasn’t sure that I completely understood them.
She was a tough character to like in the beginning. But as you read further into the story you begin to
understand the emotions that she was going through. You begin to truly understand her reasons and
the motivation behind her actions. You
begin to like her and want her to find happiness. I was rooting for her and Matt all the way
despite the obstacles and frustrations.
Because no matter what happened the love that they had for each other
never went away. They loved each other
and deserved to find happiness.
This is a story of forgiveness, about learning to forgive
yourself as well as others. There was plenty of drama, angst, heartache and
honestly miscommunication that caused that heartache. Matt and Lindsay’s journey was not by any
means an easy one. Lyndsay lead herself
down a path of self destruction and needed to find the happiness within herself
to be able to move on. They both went
through so much heartache and pain but in the end love prevailed. Unforgiven is about love, forgiveness, redemption
and self worth. Another great job by Ms.
Shea.
“Good morning, beautiful.” Light kisses pepper my face and neck. I
grumble and roll closer to Matt, wrapping my arm over his chest, securing
myself to him.
“There is only one fault I can find in you,” I mumble against his
shoulder, my eyes still closed.
“What’s that?”
“You’re a morning person.”
Matt chuckles as he pulls me on top of him and slides his hands down my
bare back. I rest my head on his chest while his fingertips trace my spine and
I shiver at his gentle touch.
“I like when you wake me up like this and touch me.”
“I like waking you up and touching you. I’ll never get enough of you,
Linds.”
