Summary
The all-new Wild Widows series about a group of grieving survivors who take Roni into their fold to help her cope with the loss of her husband。
The group has only one requirement—members must be willing to entertain the possibility of a “Chapter 2，” as it’s called in widow circles， which means a second chance at love。
Roni
After I suddenly lose my husband， Patrick， in a senseless shooting， I’m lost in a sea of well-meaning people trying to make the unimaginable seem possible。 How am I supposed to go on without the man who's been at the center of my life for nearly a decade？ My friends and family do what they can for me， but I quickly realize that surviving this loss is going to be on me。 One day to the next， I have to make the decision to go on， but life isn’t done throwing me ringers， and just when I think I’ve got this young widow game figured out， I find out how wrong I am。 When a friend of my sister’s connects me to the Wild Widows， I find a group of fellow travelers who understand my new reality in a way no one else in my life ever could。 The Wild Widows have one requirement for membership to their group—I must be open to the possibility of a Chapter 2， which is what they call a second chance at love。 While I’m not in any way looking for or ready for a Chapter 2， if I’ve learned anything it’s that I’m not in control of where this journey will take me。
Come along as Roni and the other Wild Widows navigate their new realities with grace， humor and compassion。 They will make you laugh and cry and root for each and every one of them in this exciting， heartfelt new series from New York Times bestselling author Marie Force。

Very well written。Grief is a hard topic， but the Wild Widows are there to help each other through it。 Others who haven't been there don't know how it really feels。 Iris is a great leader of the group。 She is a wonderful friend to Roni。 Roni's husband， Patrick， was shot and killed by a stray bullet when he was going to the grocery store。 Her family and friends are there for her， but the Widows group helps even more。 This is a poignant story of how Roni grows during the year after Patrick's death。 Very well written。Grief is a hard topic， but the Wild Widows are there to help each other through it。 Others who haven't been there don't know how it really feels。 Iris is a great leader of the group。 She is a wonderful friend to Roni。 Roni's husband， Patrick， was shot and killed by a stray bullet when he was going to the grocery store。 Her family and friends are there for her， but the Widows group helps even more。 This is a poignant story of how Roni grows during the year after Patrick's death。 She is able to embrace her new job and new friends while missing her husband。 She even has a special friend that she met as she was waking in her neighborhood。 She calls him "Not Patrick" Even though he resembles him from the back he is not Patrick。 "Not-Patrick" likes to tease Roni about how she stalked him。 They have a sweet relationship。I was sad to see the last page。 I was enjoying this story so much。I received an advance review copy for free， and I am leaving this review voluntarily。 。。。more

I really enjoyed this book。 It’s an emotional journey journey and I cried。 I really felt for Roni and how she can’t comprehend how to go forward without the “ love of her life”。 The loss of her husband really gutted her。 Loved when she joined the Wild Widows and starts to heal。 I’m glad to say there’s a happy ever after for her。 I voluntarily read an advanced readers copy and I recommend this book。

Wow！！！！！Touching story that keeps the reader spellbound。 I cried， but for so many different reasons。 This story evoked sadness， hurt， anger， joy， frustration， exhilaration， all the emotions possible to feel at one time。 Marie Force proves yet again she is a terrific author with her finger on the pulse of human emotion。

Wow！ I don't know what to say。 I have always enjoyed Marie Force's books but this one was outstanding。 I don't know that I have ever cried so much reading a book。 The book is about Roni Connolly who was introduced in her Fatal Series。 Roni lost her husband to violence when they had been married a few months though they were together for ten years。 The book addresses the things Roni goes through in her grief。 She finds a group called the Wild Widows who help her so much。 Each person in the group Wow！ I don't know what to say。 I have always enjoyed Marie Force's books but this one was outstanding。 I don't know that I have ever cried so much reading a book。 The book is about Roni Connolly who was introduced in her Fatal Series。 Roni lost her husband to violence when they had been married a few months though they were together for ten years。 The book addresses the things Roni goes through in her grief。 She finds a group called the Wild Widows who help her so much。 Each person in the group is a widow or widower。 The only additional requirement to be in the group is to agree that you are willing for a second love。 Reading about their grief was wrenching。 I've been married 38 years and with my husband for 41 years。 I cannot image the grief。 I cannot imagine how you get out of bed and put one foot in front of the other。 But Marie Force does a masterful job of dealing with the emotions。 She also deals with how other people in your life deal with your grief and theirs and how this can affect you and your relationships。 She distinguishes between young widows and ones who are older which is something I never thought about。 Roni was such a strong character。 It was beautiful to see her come to understand that she had to remember her husband but keep on living her life。 There was a character from the Fatal Series who also lost someone。 He is part of the Wild Widows。 He becomes an integral part of the story。 What great characters。 What a great book。 I can't wait to read the next one。 。。。more

Marie Force is releasing a new series called Wild Widows and boy is it correctly titled in a way。 The first one in this series is about Roni and her friend。 You see Roni had it all and in one moment of being at the wrong time and wrong place everything changed for her。 Her whole life was centered on her husband Patrick and it was always them as a team。 Now each day is a struggle for Roni not only to breath， laugh again but well to be just Roni without her Patrick。 It is the Wild Widows where she Marie Force is releasing a new series called Wild Widows and boy is it correctly titled in a way。 The first one in this series is about Roni and her friend。 You see Roni had it all and in one moment of being at the wrong time and wrong place everything changed for her。 Her whole life was centered on her husband Patrick and it was always them as a team。 Now each day is a struggle for Roni not only to breath， laugh again but well to be just Roni without her Patrick。 It is the Wild Widows where she learns she is not the only one going through and even though they have a clause that they must be open to love again it is what Roni needs。 Seeing that there are others still grieving， hurt and unsure of what to do makes her see she is not alone。 Not only do we see Roni surviving each day but Marie Force shows us that death doesn't care how old you are， how happy you are but actually makes you stronger and braver than anyone else。 In a way I can understand Roni from personal experience and seeing all her emotions， feelings and struggle really made me see Marie Force truly understands it。 This is not just a group of widows but in a way a second family watching you grow again and well to live again。 One of Marie Force's best work and cannot wait to see what she does with the next Wild Widow。 Live each day as it's your last and love。"I received an eBook copy from the publisher for the purpose of an honest review。 I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own。" 。。。more

I’m not sure my words can do this beautifully written journey justice and I’m really not sure where to begin but what I do know is Someone Like You needs to be read with no preconceived ideas， you need to read it first hand so this review will not be full of spoilers， all I’m going to tell you is how I felt throughout and after reading this spin off from the Fatal Affairs and First Family Series。 This story drew me in from the first few pages and there was no putting down until I had read the fi I’m not sure my words can do this beautifully written journey justice and I’m really not sure where to begin but what I do know is Someone Like You needs to be read with no preconceived ideas， you need to read it first hand so this review will not be full of spoilers， all I’m going to tell you is how I felt throughout and after reading this spin off from the Fatal Affairs and First Family Series。 This story drew me in from the first few pages and there was no putting down until I had read the final words， it’s emotional and it’s a roller coaster of a ride but you will be pleased you picked up this book and joined the ride。 We first met Roni Connolly in Fatal Reckoning when her life was torn apart and I was intrigued to see how her story would pan out， let me just say this book was everything I expected and more。 If the rest of the Wild Widows Series is as good as this book， Marie Force will certainly have another hit series on her hands。 Someone Like You ticked all my boxes， I swooned， I sighed， I smiled and I cried and honestly this story deserves more than the five stars I can give it so what are you waiting for， please one click this journey of second chances， love and hope。 。。。more

So emotionally gripping Someone Like You was such an emotional read for me！ There were times I had tears pouring down my face from how powerful this book was！ I just love the journey Roni went on to get to her chapter 2！

SOMEONE LIKE YOU is an amazing start to a new series by Marie Force， some of you may know Roni from a The Fatal Affairs Series， she was in book 14， but if you're like me and haven't read that book no worries you don't need to this can be read totally independent of that series。 I will mention that I absolutely LOVE her Love interest in this book， I will not mention his name because that would be a HUGE spoiler and I don't believe in giving spoilers in my reviews。 I simply wasn't prepared for all SOMEONE LIKE YOU is an amazing start to a new series by Marie Force， some of you may know Roni from a The Fatal Affairs Series， she was in book 14， but if you're like me and haven't read that book no worries you don't need to this can be read totally independent of that series。 I will mention that I absolutely LOVE her Love interest in this book， I will not mention his name because that would be a HUGE spoiler and I don't believe in giving spoilers in my reviews。 I simply wasn't prepared for all of the emotions I felt with this story。。。it has you thinking of your own mortality and what would you do if you lost the love of your life or if you were the one to pass， what would you want them to do after you're gone。 So many feelings， sadness is at the top but there was so much joy too。 This story is one you don't want to miss！I would recommend this book to everyone that enjoys a deep connection between the characters， a slow burn Romance， Love after Loss Romances， or Single Parent Romances。Happy Reading！！！Find out more here ➡ https://bit。ly/3rOIPWe **I have voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Readers Copy of this book for my Blog， Nadine's Obsessed with BooksYou can find me here: https://linktr。ee/NadineBookaholic 。。。more

5 Star Review of Someone Like You （Wild Widows #1） by Marie ForceWow， Someone Like You， the first book in the Wild Widows Series， a spin off from the Fatal Affairs and First Family series from Marie Force certainly packs a punch。This book was an emotional roller coaster of a read and one I couldn’t put down once I started it。 We met Roni Connolly in Fatal Reckoning when tragedy struck and devastated her life， so I couldn’t wait to see what Ms。 Force had in store for her。 This book was everything 5 Star Review of Someone Like You （Wild Widows #1） by Marie ForceWow， Someone Like You， the first book in the Wild Widows Series， a spin off from the Fatal Affairs and First Family series from Marie Force certainly packs a punch。This book was an emotional roller coaster of a read and one I couldn’t put down once I started it。 We met Roni Connolly in Fatal Reckoning when tragedy struck and devastated her life， so I couldn’t wait to see what Ms。 Force had in store for her。 This book was everything I was expecting and so much more。 If this book is anything to go by， Marie Force has yet another winning series on her hands。 This book got to me on a number of levels and I felt as though it burrowed into my soul。 My emotions were all over the place; there were times that I laughed and times that I cried but throughout this read I felt the hope， love and support that surrounded Roni。There were times that my heart broke for Roni and the devastating grief that appears to be smothering her。 This story tackles a number of difficult issues and Ms。 Force handled them with grace and dignity; she didn’t shy away from the hard realities that life can throw at us。 This is a story of hope and second chances， it was realistic， emotional and extremely well written。 。。。more

Oh my heart， this one has a little of everything， and it's one of the absolute best emotional reads I’ve seen in a long time。 Plus， it's loosely set in the Fatal world， so we get to catch up with some of our favorite characters。Roni Connolly lost her husband suddenly and way too soon。 She spends her days and long， lonely nights mired in grief。 Sure， she tries to put on a good face for her family， but she can’t seem to move beyond Patrick's death。 It doesn’t seem real to her， to the point that sh Oh my heart， this one has a little of everything， and it's one of the absolute best emotional reads I’ve seen in a long time。 Plus， it's loosely set in the Fatal world， so we get to catch up with some of our favorite characters。Roni Connolly lost her husband suddenly and way too soon。 She spends her days and long， lonely nights mired in grief。 Sure， she tries to put on a good face for her family， but she can’t seem to move beyond Patrick's death。 It doesn’t seem real to her， to the point that she sees a man from behind that looks like Patrick， only to find， when he turns around， that he’s clearly not her beloved Patrick。 With help from her sister， Roni connects with a group who call themselves the Wild Widows。 They’ve all lost a partner and meet weekly to try to help each other。 Instead of well meaning folks who offer flimsy platitudes or often say completely the wrong thing， Roni finds people who really understand the challenges of grief and the struggle to carry on with life。This is a story about overcoming grief， learning to live in a new reality， and finding a second chance at love。 With some of the same excitement and drama we find in the Fatal series， Wild Widows series is all about healing and new beginnings。 Brilliantly written， full of grace， healing and hope， this will be one of your most extraordinary reads of all time， so make sure you don’t miss it！ 。。。more
