Tyler has secrets of his own. Secrets connected to the death of Bryn's father. Secrets Tyler didn't even know he kept.


Review

Overall More Than You Know was a very good book. The storyline is quite predictable but I still found it to be an enjoyable read. It is your typical "girl moves back home after college to all the people she left behind" story but with a few little interesting twists. It was a sweet, smooth easy read; there were a few dark elements but they were written in a way that made them significantly less dark.

I liked Bryn and Tyler's relationship. It seemed very realistic and I loved that she didn't immediately fall into his arms and forgive him for everything. They had a great connection and sizzling chemistry from the start and gradually learnt to trust one another. Their romance is beautiful to read and is what everyone dreams of having themselves.

I also really liked some of the supporting characters. Olivia is great and I really hope we get to see more of her in the future. This book is a perfect example of what makes a novel New Adult; it is about growing up, becoming mature and putting the past behind you. I definitely recommend this book and i can't wait to see what the author will bring in the future.
