The last few weeks have been pretty hectic for me so I haven't managed to read as much as I would've liked to. As a result, I've decided to post a swoon from a book I read earlier in the year. One which captured my heart and still remains in my thoughts.



My Swoon for this week comes from:


Maybe Someday
(Maybe #1)
by
Colleen Hoover 


First - The Blurb:



From #1 New York Times bestselling author Colleen Hoover, a passionate tale of friendship, betrayal, and romance.

At twenty-two years old, Sydney has a great life: She's in college, working a steady job, in love with her wonderful boyfriend, Hunter, and rooming with her best friend, Tori. But everything changes when she discovers Hunter's cheating on her--and she is left trying to decide what to do next.

Sydney becomes captivated by Ridge, her mysterious neighbor. She can't take her eyes off him or stop listening to the passionate way he plays his guitar every evening out on his balcony. And there's something about Sydney that Ridge can't ignore, either. When their inevitable encounter happens, they soon find themselves needing each other in more ways than one...

Original music created for Maybe Someday by musician Griffin Peterson can be accessed through the website listed in the ebook and paperback.



Second - The Swoon(s):

I also know that my soul is compatible with Sydney's, but it's also so much more than that. Our souls aren't just compatible... they're perfectly attuned. I feel everything she feels. I understand things she never even has to say. I know that what she needs is exactly what I could give her, and what she's wishing she could give me is something I never even knew I needed.

She understands me. She respects me. She astounds me. She predicts me. She'd never once, since the second I met her, made me feel as if my inability to hear is even an inability at all.

I can also tell just by looking at her that she's falling in love with me. It serves as further proof that I need to do what should have been done a long time ago.
... Ridge


Ridge is one very sweet guy, and this was such a touching moment, I just had to share it with you.
