Seriously, I can not even explain how fantastic Jake is. I almost wore myself out, swooning over this man. A fighter, an amazing father to three kids, a divorcee three times over and a man with a questionable occupation… but he is everything you could ever want in a book boyfriend, trust me. It hit him in that moment in a way he knew he’d never forget that he could take that hand and she could lead him anywhere. But you have to give her a chance, because once Jake starts bashing down those defences, this is a beautiful story and you will learn to love Josie.
She’s pompous and haughty, and closed off. Some people might have an issue with Josie. The only person to get beyond those walls was her grandmother. She’s had a tough life, experienced untold amounts of loss, pain and devastation and has come to the conclusion that being alone is a far safer option. She’s over the top, up her on ass and hiding behind a well erected front. She uses ridiculous words like ‘alas’, ‘vexing’ and ‘sally forth’. It’s what is written in the will that is completely absurd. But it’s not just that that Josie finds strange. Not only did she know him and his three children, he is the only other person to attend the reading of the will. Josie doesn’t know Jake Spear, but it seems her grandmother did. Josephine is required to attend the reading of the will. Returning to her grandmother’s home, Lavender House, in Magdelene, Maine, to deal with the funeral, Lydia’s possessions, finances, etc. So when Lydia passes away and leaves Josie totally alone, she feels completely lost.
Josephine Malone has only one living relative. But I lived every second, every word, every feeling, every scene. And I can tell you, I absolutely livedthis book. If I want a fail-safe book that I know I’m going to fall in love with if I’ve had a run of average reads I read KA! So I’ve been eagerly awaiting the release of The Will ever since I found out it was on the horizon. I loved everything about this book! It totally consumed me. And one person who was intent on doing it.Įven if she had to do it as her final wish on this earth. One person who knew how to lead them to happiness. Including the fact he made a habit of making very bad decisions about who to give his love.īut for Josephine and Jake, there was one person who adored them. While Josephine was trotting the globe, retired boxer Jake Spear was living in the same small town as Lydia.
She led a globetrotting lifestyle on the fringes of the fashion and music elite, but she kept herself distant. Out of necessity, unconsciously and very successfully, Josephine donned a disguise to keep all others at bay. Early in her life, Josephine Malone learned the hard way that there was only one person she could love and trust: her grandmother, Lydia Malone.
