I have read this whole series and have been anxiously awaiting Grant and Aubrey's story. It did not disappoint. After catching glimpses of their relationship as ex-spouses in the previous stories, readers knew there was still love there and we needed to see things resolved.

Throughout the story, we see the present day relationship with flashbacks to their meeting, dating relationship, marriage, and divorce. The point of view alternates between Grant and Aubrey so that readers get an understanding of the establishment and breakdown of their relationship and their ideas for rebuilding it. In addition, we get insight into their individual backgrounds by being introduced to both of their extended families in the story. All of this works to create well-developed characters and a realistic chain of events.

The epilogue of this book was fantastic as it not showed the resolution for Grant and Aubrey, but with all of the couples from the series. As sad as I am to see the series conclude, it was nice to have the closure on all of the couples' stories.

This book was sad, funny, sweet, and sexy. There were glimpses of the characters in the first two books, but this also reads as a stand alone. I highly recommend this book (AND this series AND this author).

When I first read the blurb for Then Came You, I knew I had to get my hands on this one. I have never read anything by Kate before. I am always so worried about new authors, simply because I am not sure if I am going to like their writing styles, the dialogue, and so on. I must say Kate Meader surprised me. I absolutely adored her writing style. I was not expecting such an emotional book out of this one, but so many different emotions hit me square in the face. This author did an amazing job with the dialogue and plot. I was so consumed in Aubrey and Grant's story. Their story brought me to my knees. Meader sure knows how to make you feel all the feels. It was detailed enough to not have questions, realistic enough to make you wonder if this author has experienced such things in her life. Then Came You is why I intend to read from this author. I am a forever fan now.

Aubrey is the hottest divorce lawyer in Chicago. Originally from Boston, with a mouth that practically spews fire every time it opens, she is not the one to be messed with. A spine made of steel and a soft spot for Cat Damon, there is not much that can bring her to her knees. She is the woman who can't get over her past, but will die trying to.

Grant is also one of the hottest divorce attorney's in Chicago. He may not look the part because he is practically a freedom barrel chest fighter in the looks department. But don't let the physical attributes give you an opinion, because he has the huge heart and has more patience than a saint. He's always been more reserved with a soft spot for his momma.

When Aubrey needs a favor from her ex husband Grant, he is more than willing to help out. When circumstances require Aubrey and Grant to travel by car, thousands of miles are ahead of them. Both wanting to move on from the past, they are faced with past heartbreak and hopefully some revelations? Can this once upon a time " Soap Opera Couple " let go of the past to start anew?

* I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK

I thoroughly enjoyed this second chance at romance! The characters were well developed and very relatable.

I am a fan of romance that has a realistic spin. Marriage is hard work. Not every day is a fairytale. Love and happily ever after take commitment and effort. This book celebrates that reality. At times heartbreaking, this book was beyond my expectations.

I will share details to goodreads and post links to my reviews as pub date approaches. For now posting star rating to Goodreads.

Another winner! I found the book to be a nice easy read. The characters were well developed and had some bite to them. I look forward to more books in the series as well as by this author.

This was my first exposure to Kate Meader's work so I'm likely at a disadvantage as its part of a series. Not knowing any of the back story of Aubrey and Grant the reader is meant to believe that the husband is completely at fault for the termination of the marriage. However the fact that he still has feelings for her is rather obvious when he volunteers to drive Aubrey to her family's for the holidays. It becomes painfully obvious that there are conversations which need to be completed between these two and a kleenex box is almost a necessity when you discover the real reason behind the divorce.
I did enjoy the book and will be looking for more by Kate Meader.

This is the 3rd release in Laws of Attraction series by Kate Meader. It’s Grant and Aubrey story. We finally find out why they divorced two years ago. We’ve been getting little info on them in the first two releases.
I found this one hard to read. The reason for the divorce was so personal and sad I felt so bad for both of them. The Whole book felt like a therapy session to me and every step forward was followed by two steps back. It was sad and frustrating to see two people in love but couldn’t get past their heartbreak. The epilogue was great but the road itself is long and hard to get there. I’m glad they found their HEA but reading this one was tough for me.

"From the moment we met, arguing was our foreplay."

I've really enjoyed this series and I'm wishing there were more lawyers so it could continue. The author introduced me to Grant & Aubrey early on and teased me mercilessly with their secret story. She let me feel their pain and the passion that didn't die when they divorced. I was soooo curious to know the details and it was torture waiting for their story. It does not disappoint...

I really love the witty banter between the law partners and their women. Their sass and humor are very entertaining and their love and support for each other is heartwarming. But, sometimes though not always, they respect each other's privacy and don't pry into their personal business. For this reason, Grant's partners are not aware of what caused his marriage to fail. Out of respect for Aubrey he's kept his silence and suffered alone.

It was very obvious to me from the first time I met them that they still loved each other. I was excited when Grant let me know that he wanted her back. I was ready to jump in and help him with whatever covert plan he hatched to win her over. I was so engrossed in the story I was tempted to buy snacks for the road trip. I was mentally taking over the back seat and listening to every word during the ride, singing along to the radio, offering unsolicited advice that was completely ignored.

I'm a big fan of Kate Meador's writing and look forward to whatever she decides to tackle next. The line forms here...

I didn't think my heart was going to take it. Talk about painful and gut wrenching! I've been so curious about this couple since book 1. There was so much love between this divorced couple that I couldn't imagine what was the catalyst to their breakup.

We finally get Grant and Aubrey's story and it was so hard to read. Their love was so huge that I hated that something came between them, and then to read what that was... I just wanted them to find their way back.

The author really takes you on an emotion journey with these two. I never wanted to get to the end so badly as I did in this book and what a sweet ending it was. Well worth the turmoil to get too. It was really great to see all the couples in the epilogue. Great series!

Aubrey and Grant’s marriage fell apart almost two years ago after the heartbreak of a miscarriage they couldn’t grieve through together.

Still in love with his wife Grant offers to drive her home for thanksgiving and pretend they’re still together for the benefit of her grandma.

The road trip from Chicago to Boston opens everything up: they desire still between, the pain, the hurt, the love. Aubrey knows she can have a second chance but she needs to do the one thing she’s been taught not to—open herself up to someone else.

This one had my eyes leaking. Beautifully written second chance story. Fantastic ending to the trilogy.

Having read the first two book in this series, I was anxiously awaiting Aubrey and Grant's story. While this story can definitely be read as a stand alone novel, I recommend reading the series in order just to get a feel for Aubrey and Grant who are part of a tight group of friends that attended law school together. Despite being a tight group of friends, no one knew the story of why Aubrey and Grant, the golden couple, had divorced. This was definitely an emotional read as we found out just what led to the breakup and the lengths that Grant was willing to go to reclaim their love. The epilogue at the end was a terrific way to wrap up the series, almost like a bonus as we see all of the couples a few years down the road!

Then Came You
by Kate Meader

Grab a box of tissues, you’ll need it for this book. It’s a beautiful story of forgiveness and redemption. Aubrey and Grant both have their work cut out for them if they think they can heal enough to either get back together or to be able to move on to new relationships. As both are lawyers, they need to figure out how to each plead their cases to the other.

I was impressed with the dialogue between the main characters but also the love they were holding on to yet for each other. They both maintained fidelity during their divorced time period.
Kate Meader did a wonderful job of detailing each characters personalities. I would recommend this book to everyone, there’s a lot of good advice for handling this subject matter, but also a true love story.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

#Netgalley

None of their closest friends even know, much less understand why Grant and Aubrey divorced, but it’s clear two years later that these two still have feelings for one another.

I can easily say I loved Grant. Raised by a single mom, his Southern charm and gentlemanly behavior fit right in with his White Knight syndrome! And he was an emotional guy, all but wearing his feeling for everyone to see. He was cute, sweet, but finally reached his emotional limits with Aubrey. I can’t say I blame the guy either. They say it takes two to tango, but with an unwilling partner, obviously you won’t get very far...

Now Aubrey. So her family definitely didn’t incite the warm fuzzies, except for her Grandmother who was a spunky little thing! It was Aubrey’s cold shoulder and unwillingness to meet Grant even halfway to deal with their loss that drove me nuts. It was an effective role reversal, because I was in Grant’s court the entire way, literally wishing Aubrey would crack the shell around her heart. Not just to let Grant, but to also see she wasn’t the only one struggling to deal.

Grant and Aubrey’s second-chance romance took me while to get in sync with, but once everything clicked, it was a heart-tugging ride. And no worries, the story isn’t all tears and sorrow. Along with some creative make-out moments, Aubrey’s cat, Cat Damon, had some highly amusing therapy sessions, leading to the eye-opening road trip these two broken souls take.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This was by far my favorite book in this series. One of the main reasons why is how much I completely adore Grant. He such a decent, caring hero while still managing to bring the heat. I loved the connection between Grant and Aubrey and the tangible longing they still feel towards each other even after their divorce. Their emotional revisiting of what went wrong in their marriage was so sad but watching them really open up to each other and bare their heartache really created an impactful portrait of two people working to heal themselves and their relationship. Meader adds just enough humor with a feisty grandmother and cranky cat, keeping everything from being too heavy. I am a bit tired of inexplicably bad parents being used to make a character more sympathetic. Aubrey is allowed to have different ways of dealing with pain without needing a tragic backstory but that is a minor quibble in a book that I devoured like candy.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Grant and Aubrey divorced after three years of marriage, but never stopped loving each other. They simply stopped communicating and fighting for each other after a devastating miscarriage. Grant is a fixer, but Aubrey was not in a place to be fixed. A couple of years after the divorce, they were in each other’s orbit more often. Grant decided that it was time to try to get his wife back. This story is about their journey through the pain of a miscarriage and it’s after effects as a couple tries to find their way back to each other. It’s both touching and funny. It is a nice conclusion to the series.

4 Stars - Spoiler-Free Review

FINALLY! I've been waiting for Grant and Aubrey's story since I was first introduced to them in Down with Love. <-If you haven't had a chance to enjoy Max and Charlie's story, I seriously recommend it.

I love the Second Chance Divorced Couple trope, just love it. The hopeless romantic in me is always rooting for a marriage to work and Kate Meader did a fabulous job of cementing my belief that it's never too late to fight for your marriage. (I know I'm such a sap sometimes)

I liked the main characters and how relatable they were. The secondary characters had me busting a gut laughing (especially the grandma - what a hoot) and I was glad to read about the previous couples from the Laws of Attraction series.

The story flowed nicely and nothing was too dragged out, the angst level was perfect for me and kept me intrigued from beginning to end.

Being that this is book 3 of the Laws of Attraction series, I won't get too much into the plot to avoid accidentally giving away a possible spoiler. What I will say though is each book can be read a standalone if the reader wishes. You won't be confused nor feel like you missed anything - I obviously suggest reading the previous two books but that's because I did read them and enjoyed them.

I know I'm not the only one who enjoys a second chance romance involving a divorced couple and I cannot wait until the release to share Grant and Aubrey's story.

**Not posted anywhere else besides NetGalley. -> I fully understand an ARC is an uncorrected proof and will most likely change before release, but I just wanted to add a few things if they may be of use for feedback.
1. When the character flips from present internal dialogue to a past memory, it was very confusing. Maybe an italic font or additional spacing would make it easier.
2. LOC 2303 Chapter 19
"Oh, Christ!" Libby Says, and we all look up to see MY father approaching the table with Mercedes.
This scene is in Grant's POV so it should be Libby's father approaching and not my.

Thank you NetGalley for the Advance Readers Copy - I really enjoyed this Kate Meader read.

Then Came You, has a role reverse. The wife was the one to keep her emotions locked up after their miscarriage. Where the husband wanted to grieve together and talk about it. So of course a divorce is the answer to the situation. Then they decide to give the relationship a second chance. I had a hard time liking this book. Grant seems to be all in, whereas Aubrey takes until the very end of the book to get there.

I love this series and reading about Grant and Aubrey, finding out what happened to end their marriage. And seeing them heal and reconcile, not only with each other but also with Aubrey’s family. Losing someone, no matter how long you know them, has tremendous effect on people. Working through the grieving process, is hard and can take awhile and everybody does it differently. The chemistry between the two was amazing. Grant made me laugh a number of times. And, the story wouldn’t be complete without Cat Damon!! He is just like my cat.

What I liked:
The writing style
Most of the characters
Dual POVs
Part of a series: Laws of Attraction
Standalone
HEA
Epilogue

I look forward to reading more from this author.

This is the third book in the series and am assuming the last one in it since Grant was the last guy in this trio's group. I hope you have started from the beginning because past characters make appearances and are mentioned a couple of times. So we have been waiting on Grant and Aubrey's story since we were teased with it in Max' s and Charlie's book and then again in Lucas. I have to say that it wasn't what I was expecting, not that I didn't enjoy it but I guess I thought that I would have been rooting for them and honestly I didn't like Aubrey and wanted Grant to meet someone who was worthy of him. I get that she didn't feel loved but it was time for her to either get help and move on. Grant was a sweetheart and he loved her and he was hurting too the difference was that he actually wanted them to get help and she didn't and here she is a tough woman just not when she needed to be. I loved her grandmother and I even liked how everything worked out with her mom. The book was a sad story and eventually I am glad that everything worked out because I truly truly wanted Grant to be happy.

I loved this! What a fitting conclusion to this series. Definitely the best of the three. I love Kate Meader and this was wonderful. I received an ARC and thank you!
