What He Always Knew (What He Doesn't Know, #2)
Kandi Steiner
Kandi Steiner delivers a power-packed and utterly unforgettable romance in this Amazon Top 10 Bestseller. Left or right. It’s that simple, and it isn’t simple at all. If I turn left, the road will lead me back to the man I promised my life to, the one I’d imagined building a family with, the one who’s done everything in his power to get me back. If I turn right, the road will take me to the man I loved first, the man who brought me back to life, the man who would do anything to keep me. I knew the fork in the road was inevitable; it was the decision I never wanted to make between choices I didn't know I had. And I love them both. My heart is destined to exist in two equal halves — one with each man. But one half beats stronger, the vein running deepest, and holds my choice in silence long before I know it for myself. The realization of what I have to do, of the heart I have to break, just might break mine too. Left or right. All I have to do is take a breath and turn.

0 0Is it too early to say this is my favourite book of 2018? No? Okay, then I may as well give this a 6 STAR RATING ! Yep, WHAK earned that title. Jesus, wow. Those last few chapters are a whirlwind, a point where you cannot drop the book at all.
I was rooting for Charlie to end up with the guy I was rooting for in the start. For a moment there, I was scared Charlie wouldn't choose him, but I am relieved. I am so happy I gave this book a chance. As a person who doesn't like reading books about infidelity, Kandi did not let me down on this book and DELIVERED from the very first cover reveal all the way down to those acknowledgements at the end of book 2. Last I checked, this book was in the Top 10, and I truly believe it deserves that. Please give this book a chance like I did and I PROMISE you will not regret it.
You can stop reading here, or if you would like, read my initial thoughts of the book prior to finishing.

Disclaimer: I'm not done this novel yet, but I just wanted to input some of the feelings going through my mind that belong in this review. I will post my full review once I'm done. But for now, it's being unrated (even though it's 5 stars in my head).
I always pride myself for stumbling upon books that make me feel things I've never felt before. I feel sick to my stomach, but then I felt like I wanted to cry forever for these fictional characters. It's frustrating especially so because I don't have anyone shoulder to cry on when I read books that leave me emotional.
Anyways. This book, god there were so many times I wanted to shake characters senseless. There were times where I wanted people to just give up. There were times where I wasn't #TeamCameron or #TeamReece , but instead, #TeamCharlie.
I choked up a lot. I smiled. I cried. I sighed. And then I realized that Ms. Steiner does an excellent job at writing POV's. I felt like each of these characters. I felt their pain, their love, their frustration.
I want to scream out loud. But this book is making me FEEL. How many books in my lifetime has made feel like this? Not a lot, at most, 3. But damn, I feel like I'm having to constantly hold my breath while I read this.
And most importantly, these characters are real.
I'm going to be blunt here, I don't like Reece.
But I'm going to respect him anyways in this book. He isn't an asshole. He isn't this alpha guy who just wants Charlie. He's considerate. He knows where Charlie stands. Who she loves. And he doesn't make her feel like shit about it. He's a level-headed guy who doesn't judge her. And that's his redeeming quality.
