It's probably secret to no one that I love the writing of one Siobhan Davis. I happily inhale every word she writes and I do it with fervor. This newest book, however, has taken me to new heights. I have yet to read a book that has made me feel so deeply. Vivien's pain was quite literally my own as I traversed this story along side her. My heart broke and was mended multiple times throughout reading this book, and at the end, I'll admit to being pretty much shattered! I've chosen a team, I'm making predictions and the first book of this duet JUST came out! There is so much angst you can feel it. The following is my review, and I beg of you, go and get this book and read it for yourself!

Say I'm the One by Siobhan Davis
Holy crap, I was not ready for the emotional roller coaster of a ride that this book took me on. Anyone who has had a high school sweetheart will go through the emotions that Vivien has when things don't work out the way she thought they would.
It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of an angsty contemporary romance, but this one just exceeded my expectations on a massive level. There is so much going on in Vivien and in Reeve's lives and it was so easy to get fully immersed in that world and lose myself in the writing. I was swept away. From the beginning, I was sure of how I would feel about the outcome, I just knew I was going to be rooting for this one character. Only to come to be on the other team! I also love how the author was able to get two different types of celebrity romance in one story.
I got to a certain point in the book, where I quite literally couldn't put it down. I was reading until I fell asleep, only to startle back away and get right back into it! That's the true testament to a great book, though, isn't it? When it almost physically pains you to walk away? And now that it's over, I'm almost grieving!
A Fair Warning!!! This book does, in fact, end in a cliffhanger. Fans of Davis will know that this is par for the course. I'm already anticipating another wild ride when book two comes out. I do, however, recommend this book to fans of the author, fans of rock star romance or movie star romance, and fans of second chance romance. In all honesty, if you like romance at all, you will probably want to devour this book.
