A Must Read!. I have never read a Tara Sivec book before. Yeah, I know, I’m really late to the game. I’m not sure why I haven’t but when I saw a blurb for The Story of Us, it seemed like something that I would enjoy. I enjoy a good second chance romance while the aspect of it being a military love frightens me. I had a feeling I was in for the ride of my life...and I was right. As I sat today and read the book, I am in awe of Ms. Sivec. I am completely and utterly heartbroken one minute and then totally in love the next over this story. From the start of the relationship of Eli and Shelby, to where they are when they reconnect is one of pure heartbreak and devastation. Shelby is not the woman Eli left behind. Eli has gone thru things that Shelby could never even imagine. Shelby puts on her fake smile for a man whom she doesn’t love and a mother who is holding her hostage. Eli knows there are so many roadblocks in his way back to Shelby, especially her mother. Can Eli and Shelby reconnect and find love again? What exactly does Shelby’s mother have to do with their relationship? Can Shelby and Eli truly surpass all the roadblocks in their way? The relationship between Eli and Shelby is fantastic. Even after all those years apart, you can sense their chemistry is just off the charts. There are so many twists and turns in this book and so many pieces that Eli and Shelby have to put together to find the truth. Hands down, The Story of Us may be the best military/second chance romance book I’ve ever read. It took me on a rollercoaster of emotions that I have never, ever had while reading a book before. Absolutely amazing.

Perfection.. Raw, emotional, beautiful, sweet and tragic. There are not enough adjectives in the world to describe all of the feels in this amazing story. I absolutely LOVED Eli and Shelby’s story. And Rylan…sweet, messy, crazy, man-bun-having Rylan. I love that this story was beautiful and painful at the same time…at certain points I felt like the pain was jumping off the page right at me. I was completely hooked from the very first page and I didn’t put it down until I was done. By chapter 29 I was sobbing and trying to read through my tears. Those who have read it will know why…so I won’t give anything away. One of the things I loved most was that I didn’t see it coming. It’s not often that a book catches me by surprise…but it’s one of my very favorite things when it does. I have read every single book Tara has ever written...and I truly love them all. But The Story of Us is my new favorite. It’s one of those books that will stick with you for a while after you read it and that is ALWAYS the sign of a great story!

The Story of Us. Don’t waste your money. I don’t even know how it had such high ratings. It’s very very very boring.

Tara's best book yet!. Tara has written one of the best second chance romances ever! This story is so heartfelt, and emotional. The things we do to protect the ones we love are sometimes the things that destroy us. I'm used to reading some of the funniest stories from Tara, but she just showed a completely new side to her skills as a writer. I don't want to say too much but when you finish this book you will know why this book deserves 5 stars!

Tara’s Best Work Yet!. This book right here might be the greatest thing Tara has ever written. It was raw and powerful and completely beautiful. The Story of Us had me feeling all the things. Everyone needs to read this book.

Emotional contemporary second chance romance. The Story of Us was an emotional contemporary second chance stand alone romance. Shelby was the senator's daughter expected to maintain an image that met the standards of his people. Eli was the forbidden stable boy who was beneath her pedigree. For a fictional contemporary romance Tara added realistic elements to the story which helped connect the reader to the characters. This was one of those story's where one defining moment changed the entire course of their future carving new paths that would cause regret and create a slew of bad circumstances. Tara revealed one layer at a time transitioning these layers smoothly by alternating Eli and Shelby's perspective. These characters made huge sacrifices and went above and beyond anything I could ever imagine myself enduring for the sake of love. This was a selfless love that held the test of time and many obstacles. I was knocked off my feet with the powerful words Tara created. The way she illustrated Eli's situation in the marines was extremely vivid and realistic. Tara released past memories through letters which helped provide the emotional depth of feelings Eli felt for Shelby. The parallels between Eli and Shelby's characters was interwoven in a timely fashion adding layers of beauty.

emotional second chance. The Story of Us is a love conquers all, second chance romance read. The leads have been through years of torture. There's lots of manipulation from forces outside of their relationship and also some plain ole crappy luck. Although, they have been around the people equivalent of poisonous snakes, both have good hearts. Both are dealing with physical and mental scars and keeping secrets, and they will do anything to protect each other. Eli and Shelby miss the relationship they once had, but they have to get everything out into the open to salvage what they have. This book is an emotional rollercoaster with some unexpected twists.

Great book!. So many twists and turns with this book. I enjoyed all of it. Have your tissues ready as you will need those too.
