Description
"Simply perfect. There is no love story like a Mia Sheridan love story. I was absolutely swept up in Callen and Jessie, and fell for them just as hard as they fell for each other. I loved it." —A.L. Jackson, New York Times bestselling author
The moment eleven-year-old Jessica Creswell met Callen Hayes, she knew he was a broken prince. Her prince. They became each other's refuge, a safe and magical place far from their troubled lives. Until the day Callen kissed her—Jessica's first real, dreamy kiss—and then disappeared from her life without a word.
Years later, everyone knows who Callen Hayes is. Famous composer. Infamous bad boy. What no one knows is that Callen's music is now locked deep inside, trapped behind his own inner demons. It's only when he withdraws to France to drink his way through the darkness that Callen stumbles into the one person who makes the music return. Jessica. His Jessie. And she still tastes of fresh, sweet innocence ... even as she sets his blood on fire.
But they don't belong in each other's worlds anymore. There are too many mistakes. Too many secrets. Too many lies. All they have is that instinctive longing, that need—and something that looks dangerously like love.

This is the first book I've read by Mia Sheridan, and it definitely won't be the last. More Than Words is a tremendously emotional read. Parts of it gave me chills. Other parts made me want to stomp my feet and scream. There was one point that I didn't think I could forgive Callen for his cruel words, so I was sure Jessie couldn't. But she did, And I did. And that alone speaks to the amazing talent of this author. It's impossible to not connect deeply with these characters and root for their very hard-earned HEA.
Thank you to NetGalley and Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for providing an ARC for review. I never would have found this amazing author otherwise.

When it's done well, I love the childhood bffs (who got separated) to lovers when they meet as adults trope, and this book certainly did a wonderful job. The childhood bffs arc was written was really wholesome manner, and it translated to the adults' part of the arc so well. Overall, this book was swoony and raw and good. The third act breakup was super painful though 🥲 but I loved the subsequent make-up and the hea
