Always Loving You (Danvers series Book 6)

YOWZA...Always Loving You...love the title, love the cover, LOVED the story and the characters! Loved it all.

Sydney did an incredible job writing this journey of Avie and Mac. I laughed out loud, giggled, hurt for them, fell in love, was angry and happy, felt sweetness and love along with true friendship amongst the characters. She sure knows how to make you feel so much as the pages turn and oh man is there some amazing sexiness going on!

How amazing the journey of Avie and Mac who've loved each other for years, since they were young, yet a horrendous act of violence changes their lives forever.

For those that may be sensitive to reading a story where someone was raped, I feel compelled to warn you that this story does deal with a victim of rape. To me it wasn't gory nor glorifed in any way, but rather addressed in a realistic manner. I honestly loved how Sydney took on such an issue and tackled it.

I'm majorly in love with Mac! He is HOT. I have to say in reading this story, there were many moments where I caught myself thinking how Mac reacts to some things is the way my hubby reacts. Things I'd forgotten, so thank you Sydney for re-opening my eyes!

Love seeing characters from previous stories again. You not only get to learn more about them but you get to be with them again. With that being said, this CAN be read as a standalone.

This story is a definite must read, I very highly recommend.

This story has been a long time coming. Ever since we learned about Ava and her own personal hell that life had dealt her, we've waited to see if she'd ever have her happily ever after. We know from previous Dancer's novels about Ava and Mac's situation. She got dealt a crappy hand and Mac was there for her at her lowest point to pick up the pieces and helped her throughout her life. They both loved each other to the moon and back, but Ava was too afraid to let him love her. She had demons that she had to battle before she could let "her person" have her heart.

One day something happened. Ava knew that she had to change before she lost the one man that she ever truly loved. Even though I was a little upset for what Mac did, I could understand why. He truly makes up for it though by the end of the novel. That's one sweet talking man Sydney!! "It's impossible for me to do anything but love you, Avie . . . My life will be spent always loving you, baby."

Ava's transformation throughout the story had me cheering. The support that her new found friends and colleagues give her is indearing. You get a sense of family support in the Danver's series. Sydney gives us lots of laughs, not just from Suzy either. Our pal Ella has a few jokes up her sleeve. "Skinny, skanky skank!"

I applaud Sydney for accurately portraying how a victim thinks, feels, and what they believe. Not being able to trust, let someone near them, or even that dressing a certain way could be a trigger for them. She showed, through Ava, that even though something horrible happened, you can overcome your darkness. She showed just how strong Ava was when she thought she was anything but. "I need to live, Mac. I want to stop being so afraid of everything all the time."

Mac was a great supporter of Ava. I found myself swooning many times by his patience and dedication to the woman he loved since before he knew what love was, as said by Ava. "Oh, Avie . . . You've always been my forever person and, baby, I can barely breathe when you aren't with me. I'm yours. I always have been."

This beautifully written novel had me laughing, crying, and having every emotion between. Thank you Sydney for writing such emotionally driven novels that rock me to my core. If you don't know by now people how great an author she is then do what Ava does :-P

As with all things written by this author. It rocks! When it starts to read calm, humor and adrenaline are tossed it to get your heart going . For a "lone" woman with her drama, she finds friendship, coping mechanisms and her everlasting. The trauma that brought her seeking adventure and her man. The twists and turns keep you on the edge and excited. She finds friendship with the amazing Suzy, that girl kills me. I love her wit and sass. I look forward to reading more from this author. Its full of surprises. Bring on MORE

What can I say......this is just another truly amazing story by Sydney Landon. I loved from beginning to end. The characters were wonderful, the story was written in a way where you could relate to the characters even if nothing like this has ever happened to you, and it was just flat out FANTASTIC! I have always been a HUGE fan of Sydney's and her stories have never disappointed me and of course this book was fantastic!
Great read and I definitely think you should grab it up and read it immediately! I didn't put it down once until I finished the whole thing!
I recommend reading the whole Danvers series because they are all amazing, but this one is a MUST read even if you don't read the others.
Her writing and stories just keep getting better and better! :)

Always Loving You really sums this story up. It is indeed a story of true long lasting love. Ava and Mac met in high school and both had real feelings for each other - tragically before either one could act on those feelings Ava suffered a brutal attack at the hands of her prom date. In the blink of an eye both lives are changed forever. Although Landon uses words like brushstrokes on a canvas to paint a picture of a horrific attack - she just as easily paints a larger picture of two people desperately in love. Ava and Mac have years of sadness to overcome before they can truly be together and ultimately, heal one another. Ava has to trust Mac enough to let him in and find lifelong love and happiness.
This book includes some steamy love scenes, but is soft enough to deal with a rather delicate subject matter and still pull on the heartstrings.

A great edition to this book series. Every one needs a Mac in their life. No one should go through what Ava did. These two were always friends and should have been lovers a looooong time ago. But life goes on and Mac decides to date another woman even though he has always loved Ava. His action finally makes Ava make changes in her life to be a stronger, happier and strong woman. There is a beautiful HEA. The charcters form the other books in this series are happily included in this book too. What a great bunch of family/friends. Enjoy this stand alone book but read all the other Danvers books by this other.

I recently discovered Sydney Landon as an author and started following her on Facebook after reading Pierced and Fractured. I had yet to read any of the Danvers series until Always Loving You was released and I was randomly chosen to receive it from the author on the day it released. I was not asked to leave a review but felt I should. Even though this book is in the middle of a series and I hadn't read any of the other books in the series I felt it could be read as a stand alone but trust me when I say you would want to read the rest of Danvers series.
I loved following Ava as she embarked on her mission to get her man. She steps way out of her comfort zone to show Mac that she was finally ready for a commitment. Mac had always loved her but had come to the conclusion that Ava would never be ready after years of close friendship because of an incident that changed both of their lives. He tried moving on with another woman causing Ava to finally react and try to win her soulmate.
I don't want to give it all away so I'll just tell you this book is highly recommended and you won't want to put it down. I speak from experience since I stayed up till 5 am finishing it!

A great addition to the Danvers family of books. I could not put this book down. The characters are so well developed and the stroryline moves at a great pace you can't stop yourself from turning the pages. Ava and Mac's HEA has been a long time coming and well worth the wait and it always so much fun to see how the rest of the gang are doing, Suzy never disappoints and the delivery scene is hysterical. I can't wait for Dominic, Gage and Mark........

This is a fabulous story, Part of the Danvers series, but can be read as a stand alone. Ava and Mac are the perfect couple, but when Ava was brutally attacked, it changed her. Now too much time has past and both are afraid of being hurt. When Ava finally decides to go after Mac, she realizes she may have waited to long, because Mac has found some one else. Mac has moved on with his life, even though he still loves Ava, he's not sure Ava will ever be able to truly love him.
A steamy sexy story, that will leave you with smile. A must read.

Sydney did it again, I cried at every hurtful and sad moments and laughed out loud at some of the silliness that went on. I totally recommended mm end this book to everyone who enjoys a great romance novel. Sydney I thank you so much for gifting me this book and for your amazing story telling.

As always Sydney, love the book. The entire Danver Series crowd mixed in with new ones. Mac and Ava's character are most definitely loved in this story and add so much to the series. If you have not read the Danver Series, do yourself a favor and start from the beginning. As each book could be a stand alone, its nice to know the history of each character. Thanks again for a great book.
