Ask Me Again by Theresa Hodge - Book Review

So through the tragic loss of her best friend, Alyssa finds herself back in her hometown for her funeral where she meets her ex, Drake.  All I can say was, at this point I wanted to know what really happened. The first few pages you see what happened, but I go the feeling I didn’t get the whole story. Even though she had every reason to leave him, I mean I would have dipped out too. After the funeral, Drake is still feeling her despite her having this great life with another man in another state. You can almost tell that it never really ended.

Alyssa ends up going back to New York and her boyfriend with all of this guilt and life goes on as normal.  Drake isn’t feeling normal though because he is feeling Alyssa way too much despite her telling him that they couldn’t do this between them. It almost just felt normal for him to call her “Baby” and she didn’t object to it at all.  He was all trying to convince her that what they had was real and would always last and she was torn between two men.

Thing start to unravel for her and have this cause and effect type of thing happening. Drake ends up sending her this most romantic gesture that had my heart just melting. Of course, David gets wind of it and storms off. You would think they could get through this, but that is not the case as Alyssa gets déjà vu and up and leaves him. She had a lot of strength in her though, because when she broke up, she was so calm and collected. I mean, didn’t yell or anything just called it what it was and moved on.

Drake puts his plan in motion and Alyssa is more than willing to go through with it. When these two get back together, it’s as if time never stopped moving. They tried to not give in to the love jones but that proved difficult. With their touching and loving reunion, Alyssa gets the shock of her life and Drake doesn’t miss a beat.

What I really loved about this story was that it was so heartfelt and just full of love. My favorite scenes were just the ones with Drake. Not because he was just a delicious piece of chocolate cake, oh no. But really his persistence. He knew he messed up and when he got Alyssa back, he made sure to prove his love for her time and time again. The author made sure to give you some dramatic flare being that no love is perfect and that ending had me running for the hills. Thank you so much for putting this book out into the universe. All my love.
