Review Love Can’t Be Measured

Oh my goodness, "Love Can't Be Measured" completely swept me away! From the very first page, I was hooked. The premise – a successful author, on the brink of motherhood, suffering a devastating accident – immediately grabbed my attention, and the emotional rollercoaster that followed didn't let go. M.L.

Perhaps we'll see more of them in future works by M.L. Farrell – I certainly wouldn't object! The hints of future storylines were exciting.

The emotional weight of the narrative is perfectly balanced by moments of hope and tenderness. There's a genuine sweetness throughout the story that never feels saccharine. The inclusion of the steamier aspects of the relationship added depth and authenticity, showcasing the intimacy and connection between McKinna and Dezmond even in the midst of their struggles. It felt natural and never gratuitous, contributing to the overall emotional resonance of the story. It’s clear that M.L. Farrell has a gift for writing characters who are both flawed and deeply lovable.

In short, "Love Can't Be Measured" is a book that will stay with me for a long time. It's a powerful and poignant read that celebrates the enduring strength of love and the human spirit's incredible capacity for resilience. I devoured it in just two days, unable to put it down, and I highly, highly recommend it to anyone looking for a story that will both break your heart and mend it in the most beautiful way.
