Synopsis:

I never thought I’d be flying alone with a two-month-old baby, leaving behind her father and fifteen hundred miles of memories.I never thought the last time I would ever see him would be down on my knees, at my worst, begging for his love.

He ruined me. Took my heart and love it unconditionally, just to spit it out and walk all over it.
We’re strangers again, the two of us. I’ve always been a good girl but love can make you do bad things. It changes who you are as a person, inside and out.

I hate that he was ever mine. I hate that I hate him. I hate that I still love him. Now we’re just memories, and I’m just a stupid girl clinging to hope. Hope that one day I can let go, for my sake and theirs.

**My Review Was Posted November 17th, 2018 on Goodreads**

I have no clue how I want to start with this review…..My feelings are EVERYWHERE!!! On one hand I loved the angst portrayed in this novel…. but on the other hand.. I absolutely hated Leylah’s character.

My reaction has nothing to do with the love triangle trope. I love the hell out of angsty novels and this trope assures me there will be a ton of it. What I disliked about Leylah was the immaturity her character showed. She didn’t feel like what her character was supposed to represent, a neglected wife. She felt like a spoiled brat who just had her favorite toy taken away. I don’t know, her character didn’t mesh well with my thoughts.

Now onto a more positive note….

In the beginning of this novel Roman was legit the man I thought i would love the most throughout this novel. He was the caring man who showed Leylah the affection she was in dire need of. At the time he had my vote. My interpretations at the beginning of Ryan was he was the asshole husband who was very suspicious to me. My views and thoughts on these two men quickly reversed towards the end of the novel….. I was expecting it to go one way and than BOOM…it went in a whole new direction! I was legit shocked. Wasn’t expecting that ending.

Overall, We Were Memories was just okay. The ending definitely saved it from being a DNF for me. I am really curious about Blaze and that freaking ending! The ending definitely has me wanting to know more. After reading the blurb for We Were Forever, I’m even more intrigued.
