Before A Beautiful Struggle, Katrina
and David's friendship was a bond that couldn't be broken.
Starting with that fated moment when
David carried Katrina to the emergency room, we travel back through David's
memories as he waits to hear that his best friend and the one woman he truly
cares for is going to survive...
“I can’t lose her. You don’t
understand how important she is to me,” I ramble. I guess I’m in shock because
all I can think about is the sight of all that blood over Katrina’s beautiful
face. “She’s my world. I can’t lose her.”
This is book one in the novella
series 'The Beauty in Between' the companion series to Lilliana Anderson's best
selling 'A Beautiful' series
Review:
Wow!
This one gripped me from the start.
David walks into the hospital carrying a bleeding Katrina in his
arms. The story then takes us backward through
his POV and shows us their relationship from the beginning.
Katrina has been is best friend since
they were kids. She is the best thing that has ever happened to him. Sadly, living with a miserable father and
growing up to see how unhappy his parents were affects him. He doesn’t think he’s relationship
material. By the time he’s ready to face
what he truly feels for Katrina and make a move, it’s too late. Or is it?
I fell in love with these
characters. While reading I kept
shouting in my head for David to just go for it. When I saw several opportunities for him just
slipping away, my heart ached. I am
looking forward to reading the next book in the series to see if these two can
finally get on the same page and get together.

Right now she is content focusing on work, study and
training while hanging out with her best friend David Taylor, a womaniser with
a heart of gold that would do anything for Katrina – except watch her get hurt
again.
That is, until the dashing Elliot Roberts, a junior

Dating’ policy.
Katrina struggles with following her heart or following her
mind and has trouble seeing where her heart truly lies

Elliot's life takes a turn for the worse and he isn't happy with who he's
become.

enough to fight this time?
