Luke is single after a 3 year relationship, he doesn't want to be married or have kids, he sees his sister and her best friend in his future, nothing else. When he realizes that those feelings are kicking in, for his sister's best friend, Ashleigh, does he have what it takes to show her he can be serious? That he wants her forever? Will she even give him the chance to?
Calling Me: The Complete Series was a funny and cute friends to lovers romance, the kind you can read on any given day and find a smile on your face. The friendship between Ashleigh, Luke, and Haven, as well as her husband and his sister, was hilarious. They're the kind of friends you picture at your dinner table, making jokes and being the people you turn to when you need to be serious. All were really relatable and the book followed true to how friendships work. Luke was a great guy, the kind of guy girl's would leap for. When he started making personal development changes in his life I was swooning right alongside Ashleigh and every other female character. His relationship with Ashleigh wasn't a unique story line, but it was fun to read. Their interactions were sometimes awkward, sometimes really steamy, and sometimes just like friends usually are. I liked how the characters overcame their differences, facing them as individuals in order to find eachother.
While the story was at times predictable, it was still very enjoyable to read. I found myself growing tired of Ashleigh's meltdowns and her lack of faith, but I understood what they did for the story. Told in three novella parts, the complete series is definitely something I am glad I read all in one sitting rather than waiting for each individual novella to be published. While each section doesn't have a major cliffhanger, they do leave you wanting for more, a lot more.
Calling Me was definitely a feel good kind of read and I really enjoyed sitting down and entering the lives of Ashleigh, Luke, and their family and friends. If you're looking for a shorter read with all the emotions, from angst to fluffy love, this is it.
