Review:
After devouring Heartbeat, and that absolutely devastating and shocking ending, I wasn't sure what to expect from Come What May. The simple fact that there is another woman mentioned in the summary made me mad. I wanted more of Adam and Katie, not Adam and someone else.
After a few chapters, I grudgingly accepted that Katie wasn't coming back and accepted the loss, as Adam does. I thought I knew Adam after Heartbeat. Turns out he wasn't nearly the guy I thought he was. He makes a lot of bad decisions in Come What Me, and it made me lose respect for him at times. But, he grew on me, and I completely understood why he acted the way he did; I just didn't love him for it.
I like the fact that Adam and Jada are paramedics and that there was more of an emphasis on their work in Come What May. I thought that part of the story was well-developed and I enjoyed the medical aspect of the book.
Despite myself I grew to really like Jada. She is strong, level-headed, and very likable. I found myself rooting for Jada and Adam to get together. The chemistry between them was undeniable and I couldn't believe Sullivan evokes so much passion between the two characters without them ever kissing.

I finished this book just as torn up as i was after finishing Heartbeat. Sullivan delivers another knockout ending, and I'm still recovering from the aftershocks, hours later. In fact, I had to write my review to get my thoughts together, in the hopes of clearing my head (and heart) from the emotional turmoil! I actually wanted to scream out loud in frustration, emotion and shock when i finished the last page. All I can say is October can't come fast enough for me to find out how it all ends!!
