Promises We Meant to Keep: A Lancaster Novel (Lancaster Prep)

Product Information

I loved Spencer and Sylvie so much, as indivduals and even more so together. I also loved how big of a role Whit and Summer played in this book. I swore this school year would be better, but it’s still all the same. All the time. She won’t leave me alone. I don’t feel normal. Ever. I don’t even know what that means or what it’s like. But being with you, and hanging out with Summer…you both help me forget who I really am.” Her smile is small. Sad. “A broken little doll with nothing to live for.” Sylvie and Spencer’s relationship is toxic beyond belief. Yet, they can’t stay away from each other. Syl trying to heal herself from her past and the controlling, manipulative relationship she had with her mother. While Spencer has turned into a more bitter, ruthless person who tries to forget the magnetic force she has on him. So glad that I still decided to give this book a try, even though ‘Things we wanted to say (but never did)’ was such a disaster. This book made up for it and made me even more excited to read more Monica Murphy books in the future!

When she’s sold to a Medicare-eligible magnate with the highest bid, Sylvie gives the most intimate piece of herself to the only man she’s ever loved, before accepting her fate. It was heartbreaking to read about Sylvie’s past. And that she went through it alone, no one really taking her seriously. Though Spencer didn’t fully know everything, he was always there for her, until he wasn’t. She believes she’s the reason. That she ruined everything between them. He blames her, too. But her actions were draped in so much trauma & abuse. So young, and so broken. Im glad she found Spencer Donato who has always been there for her. The thing is that for years she used him and never took him serious. As the story starts, they reconnect again and they get to have a second chance. The ending felt a little rushed, but was ultimately satisfying. And while the story wasn't fully what I had hoped for, it still hit the spot.But then I did the unthinkable, and betrayed him in the worst possible way. I thought I lost him for good…” the heroine was just too much.... I really understand that she had a traumatic childhood but man u don't need to treat the people u love like that 🤡 Couldn't connect with her and I don't understand why she handled things like she did They fell deeply in love while at Lancaster Prep - where Sylvie's parents ran the school. Their relationship was a whirlwind of passion. But Sylvie committed the ultimate betrayal.

Thank you so much to Monica Murphy and Valentine PR for providing me an advanced readers copy of Promises We Meant to Keep, I had such a great time reading. And we can thank Spencer for that! Spencer has got to be my favourite male lead out of all the MMCs in this series. He’s literally so sweet, not toxic at all and he actually shows that he cares for her, instead of being an emotionally constipated piece of work. He proved over and over how much he loves Sylvie and I’m so glad that they got together at the end! He literally gave her the best gift ever, which is her freedom. Sylvie is the little sister of Whit and while I didn’t really care for her in his book, she really won me over in her own! She’s an amazing character and I feel so bad for her because of what she had to go through from a young age. Not being able to have her own identity and always being compared to her mother AND her mother supporting that idea, must’ve been so painful and hard for her! Addictive, angsty and unforgettable . . . their chemistry was explosive' 5***** READER REVIEW Read more Look Inside Details It was so cool to be inside this world once again!! If you read book one on the series, we all know that Sylvie was kinda the villain in that book, which made me hesitant to read her story.

From the bestselling author of A Million Kisses In Your Lifetime, this is the addictive Lancaster Prep novel about second chances and star-crossed love . . . He was my first love, my protector, my knight in shining armour. We were made for each other, and I truly believed he was my forever.

My senses are buzzing, fully awake and attuned to this woman, and I understand completely why I came here. Why I sought her out. I’m still in love with her. Like a complete dumbas s.” I have been in love with you for so long, I don’t know how to stop. I will do whatever it takes to make this work.I absolutely LOVE this book. I love Syl & Spence. They were EVERYTHING! True Soulmates, from the moment they met. Their love ran deep! And their chemistry - HOT🔥🔥🔥!!! They endured so much. Went through so much pain & heartache - together and individually. There were so many secrets & miscommunication between them. They both have their own set of familial issues. It affected how they acted & treated one another, in the past. The contradictions of Sylvie’s personality are what makes her the most intriguing to me, I think. Combined with the dichotomy of the ever-patient yet fierce Spencer, the duo’s romance is an emotionally charged, coming of age story full of tender moments and explosive couplings.
