TJ Klune has cordially invited all of you to the wedding of Paul Auster and Vince Taylor ... and oh what a wedding it is! Until You is everything you've been waiting for, and so much more. Paul, Vince, Sandy, Darren, Daddy Charlie, Cory/Kori, and all the rest have made this wedding one you'll never forget. Hijinks galore, shenanigans that only this group can get themselves into, and full of equal parts humor and heart, Until You is a gift.
It seems like we've been waiting forever for Paul and Vince's wedding, doesn't it? We've seen them meet, we've seen Paul run Vince over with his car, we've seen death, we've seen ups and downs but through it all we knew we'd get here. TJ's unparalleled mix of humor and emotion shines through from beginning to end. You know with this series you're always going to get our favorite guys in the most ridiculous situations, and Until You is no different. There are plenty of laugh out loud, spit your drink out moments (my favorite is drunk Paul and his present for Vince :) ) but there are also plenty of moments where your heart will try to explode out of your chest from all the feels? Hello, Paul marrying RoboCop anyone? I mean seriously, right out of the gate there were tears from all the sweet and happy.
For me, even though I love Paul and Vince more than just about any other couple in Romancelandia, the part of this book that REALLY got to me was Daddy Charlie. I won't spoil anything, but if you're like me and you've been just hoping and praying for something BIG to happen to everyone's favorite grumpy Daddy, trust me when I say you will be sooooooo happy by the end of this book. And you'll probably immediately try to find something, anything, to bribe TJ with to write the next book faster! Trust me.
Matty, Larry, Nana are all present and accounted for, don't you worry. The thing I love so much about these three, and really all the rest of the characters, is that it would be SO very easy to make them into caricatures. TJ never allows that, though. Sure they say and do outrageous things, find themselves in situations most sane people wouldn't be caught dead it, but still, somehow, it all seems realistic, which just goes to show how talented TJ Klune really is.
Really, this book, and this series is just good for the soul. Paul and Vince will make you smile and fill your heart. Endearing and sweet and so funny you'll laugh until your side hurts, this wedding is one you definitely DO NOT want to miss!! Bring tissues though, you'll need them.
