Unsteady by Ashley Christin released on June 17, 2021, and this contemporary romance was spectacular! I was fortunate enough to receive an advanced copy of the book, and read it during my down time last week (so when not outside working on the house). I could not put the book down!
Unsteady features Rhys Wild who is returning home to support her best friend after a breakup. Shortly after boarding her flight, she meets the man who she will sit next to for the flight. His name is "Dave", and these two instantly hit it off. Things quickly become heated, but when the plane lands whatever was happening was done and over. Or so Rhys thought. That is until she and Tucker walk into Steele and Roxx. It is there that Tucker introduces Rhys to the man she thinks will be perfect for her. Hayden Steele is part owner of the bar, and it just so happens that he was sitting next to Rhys on the flight home. And this is their story.
This dang book had me laughing, crying, and swooning. There were many times that I was wiping away my tears, and my heart was just going through all the feels. Loved the meet cute. Loved the reintroduction they experienced. Loved how Rhys was there to help Tucker. Loved how Rhys explained that she was unsteady. Loved the relationship that you could feel between Rhys and her grandparents. Loved how she instantly fit back into her hometown after being gone for so long. Loved witnessing how the relationship between Hayden and Rhys continued to build. Loved the drama moment, even though it broke my heart. I just loved every single thing about this book. I am sincerely hoping that Ashley Christin goes back to write Kade and Tucker's story, because that deserves to be told. I want more of this town, and more of these characters. Loved it all, and it was a perfect introduction to the writings of Ashley Christin.
If you're looking for a book that will hit you in the feels, then grab this book. It is such a sweet romance, and it is also the story of healing for both of our characters. For Rhys it is also the story of coming home and rebuilding those relationships that were lost due to distance.
I highly recommend Unsteady, and think everyone should read it.
Thank you for reading my thoughts,

Traveling nurse Rhys Wild knows the consequences of choices.
After she lost the most important people in her life, she has vowed to herself to never make the decision to fall in love.
The only way to cope is to keep moving, to stay busy. To stop means to think. To feel. And feeling is a luxury she cannot afford.
Unless it’s Random Day.
The stranger on the plane ride home is the perfect distraction from her anguished thoughts about returning to the one place that will make her face everything she’s left behind.
It was supposed to be a random bit of fun.
She wasn’t supposed to see him again.
But sometimes life makes the choice for us. And this time, Rhys must steady herself, if she is to live the life she thought was lost forever.
