Take great care where and when you read this achingly beautiful and emotionally charged story from Alexandra Silva, as you are bound to suffer torrential ugly cries and need copious boxes of tissues!
This somewhat prequel, somewhat full length novella story of Dorian and Phillip will confuse readers if they have not already read No One But You, as it seems to have trouble finding it's place in line with that story, and as such does jump around a little.
But this is a story those of us that did read Quincy and Jamie's story have been longing for, and it's a case of be careful what you wish for because Ms Silva delivers on the glorious love story and heart breaking eventuality that is Dory and Pip.
I just loved Dory, she is my champion in this book.
Such a strong, sensual, deeply emotional and otherworldly wise character, I ached for her and felt every tear of her emotional journey throughout this classic tale of love and loss.
You cannot deny hers and Phillips love, as it is so sublimely portrayed by the author, but I found myself wanting to intervene; to protect her somehow from the pain she endures, such is the connection I felt through Ms Silva's words.
Phillip on the other hand, was different from what I had expected from the glimpse of him we got from Book 1.
He's deeply passionate and his love for Dory is unquestionable, but his commitment is mercurial and hints at a troubled flighty soul, making him difficult to really get behind him, particularly when I'd clearly signed my allegiance to "Team Dory".
The supporting characters in this tale all show their rich personalities throughout this rollercoaster ride of emotions, blending the story well to No One But You, and we get to see more of the building connection between Jake and Dory to set the stage for them in coming offerings from Ms Silva.
I for one, am waiting impatiently for the next chapter in the Imperfect Hearts series!

About the author
A love so good ❤❤❤
Beautifully written love story that will have you riding a roller coaster of emotions with Dorian and Phillip ❤❤ I loved Dorian in No One But You, so I was thrilled to read about what led to her current situation in life. It was great to have the rest of the group, Jamie, Quincy, Willow and Jake along for the ride. Each one of them are just as important to the story as the hero and heroine. None of them distracts from the epic love between Dory and Pip, but only enhances the love and connection they all share to one another. This is the perfect tale of honest, breathtaking, messy love. The emotions you feel between Dory and Pip are all consuming and heartfelt. They met at an early age and growing into that love as your aspirations in life change is not always easy. Dory and Pip had dreams, but sometimes those dreams don’t lead you down the same path. Dory was selfless in her choices, and while Pip loved her like he’d never love anyone else, he had an itch to fulfill and Dory didn’t want to stand in his way. While I didn’t always agree with the choices that Pip made, I still found him burrowing into my heart because that is what he did. He loved fiercely, he adored Dory in every way he should have. He demands your attention and it’s impossible not to give it. But at the end of the day his choices took them down a road neither would have anticipated. This was an extremely emotional read for me. I felt the pain of these characters in my heart. Alexandra’s writing is powerful and sucks you in, squeezing your heart until you realize you’re holding your breath. Not all love stories have a happy ending, but it’s the journey they take that captures your heart. Dory and Pip captured my heart! You should read No One But You, rest assured you will fall in love with this cast of characters. You will want more, and I look forward to reading about them in the future.
