The Roads That Led to You by: S. Grant 4 Stars

 

If only I had known then what I know now. Famous words that are echoed in The Roads that Led to You by S. Grant.

Sydney is a young lady with a not so great home life. Like many in that situation, her strongest relationships are in friend circles. This is where Sydney meets E. From the beginning there is a connection that is soulful. Their souls move in tandem. It often appears timing is the problem with the friendship not growing to more, but there are also signs of self esteem issues with Sydney that could be holding things back. E, on the other hand, is the stronger one. He has self worth and patience with Sydney that just makes the reader want more. Then here comes Jake. The perfect boyfriend, any girl would want him. This adds more to the anguish of the reader. 

Grant did a great job with characters. I loved them all. I did get irritated with Sydney several times. Actually wanting to shake her a couple of times. But the characters were real, you could see this situation happening. And the reader knew someone was going to get hurt. There can only be two. The only question was who the hurt one would be.

I would recommend The Roads That Led to You to readers that enjoy romance with mystery. It is a slow burn.
