I’ll Love You Tomorrow (Trading Heartbeats Trilogy Book 3) by Julie Navickas – Review by Jennifer Gordon
I’ll Love You Tomorrow by Julie Navickas
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Having read and enjoyed the previous two books in this series I was looking forward to this third instalment and I was not disappointed. Although part of a trilogy it can be read as a standalone story, however the characters do appear in all three books. Lauren and Mitch married twenty years after meeting age six and knowing they were soul mates. They married at a cheap Vegas wedding chapel, but for Lauren her modest wedding ring diamond was brighter than all the lights in Sin City! However, after the honeymoon years the wedded bliss faded leaving Lauren unsure why Mitch has pulled away from her. She puts all her time and energy into her restaurant, Pier Ninety-Two, in downtown Los Angeles.
Unfortunately the restaurant which used to be swanky and successful is now only just surviving, a bit like Lauren and Mitch’s marriage. A grease fire at the restaurant burns Pier Ninety-Two to the ground, leaving Lauren devastated and having to deal with the legal and financial consequences. Already confused by Mitch’s behaviour, Lauren is heartbroken by both the loss of her marriage and the restaurant. Mourning her past life and loves, she decides to head for Vegas and stack her chips, ready to risk it all on red. As usual the characters are so well defined that I felt as though they were friends and I was invested in their relationship. I was taken on an emotional rollercoaster whilst reading Lauren and Mitch’s story which is both heartbreaking and heartwarming. This was an enjoyable and engaging read, and I definitely recommend the whole trilogy.
