What if you would never remember the day you made the most important decision of your life?

That’s what they’re telling me about the day of my accident—the day I put on Max’s ring and chose him over Nate. I’m counting on the wisdom behind a decision I don’t remember making.

Max is amazing—sexy, sweet, and kind. I was starting to believe happily-ever-after might be in my future after all. Then the unthinkable happened and my world imploded. If I’m going to make this work with Max, I need my missing memories, or at least answers from about those five days before my accident. 

But what does my future hold if those answers aren’t anything like I imagined?


Hanna's life is full of choices, decisions, mystery, and drama. She went from a girl with no love life and serious insecurities, to a girl with holes in her memory and two men in her life. These two men are willing to fight for her, but she is still so unsure of what she wanted during the missing days and what she still wants and what is best for all involved. She is pulled in two different directions and each one has challenges associated with it. She is scared to make the wrong choice, scared of getting hurt and hurting them. She has been through so much since her accident, but she is strong, has a good heart, and is determined to make the best of her life and continue moving forward. And her choices have ramifications for the others involved.

I have been waiting for All for This since I finished Lost In Me. Hanna’s plight and the confusion of sorting her life have captured my curiosity from the very beginning, and waiting for the answers to be revealed built an anticipation that made this last book a treasure trove.

“You can leave, but you’re taking my heart with you. You can choose him, but part of you will always be mine.”

I loved the way all these stories came together and how the missing five days were revealed. Hanna, Max, Nate, Hanna’s sisters, Meredith, Janelle. So many interconnected stories that don’t mean nearly as much on their own but together have so much more impact.

All the secrets that have been hiding in the back of Hanna’s mind start to come together, either because her memory returns, or she finally convinces her friends and family to help her reconstruct those last few days. Told in a series of present day scenes mixed with memories from the days leading up to her accident, the story contains narration from all three major players -- Hanna, Max, and Nate.

Hanna is learning more about herself by having to dig into the pervious year (and especially the week leading up to her accident) that she would have never realized if she had continued on her chosen path without question. Removing her own memories, even with the added frustration that brings, showed her the truth behind her own actions and those of the people around her. 

Max has been a constant in Hanna's life since she woke up from the hospital. He is thoughtful, sweet, and caring when it comes to Hanna and the ones he love. He is a fantastic father to his daughter, and has been willing to let Hanna come to her own conclusions about her memory, even as he refused to step too far into the background. Every time she needs him, he sweeps in to save the day.

In contrast, Nate is in and out of the story. As a famous rocker, he has a persona to live up to, while also keeping his son the center of his world. While he loves Hanna, he is willing to step back and let her made her decision without his interference.

“I’m here because I can’t choose either one of them, and I need to break it off with both.”

After the way Fall to You ended, I was even more torn about who Hanna should choose. I could easily see Hanna choosing either man and, at that point, being truly happy with either. I had a favorite, but having been disappointed before, I didn’t want to fall too far in love with one option. So I started reading All For This with a pretty open mind. As I read, my mind kept filing away little details that swayed me more completely to one man over the other. Over and over. And one of the things I loved most at the end of this trilogy? No one really felt like the wrong choice. Only a better choice for Hanna and for himself.

This whole trilogy captured my attention (and patience) in a way many trilogies fail. I am not a patient person by nature, so waiting for a publishing schedule to learn the whole story is not something I often choose. I am picky about the cliffhanger-type series I pick up. But this one? I couldn’t not read it. The amnesia, the relationships she couldn’t remember, the whole mystery behind what happened, I learned to wait. And loved every minute of the reading. And the waiting. I still haven't read the New Hope Trilogy that this is a spin-off from, but it has been moved to the top of my pleasure read pile, and the as yet unattached characters have also piqued my curiosity and attention. This trilogy has pushed Lexi Ryan into the group of my favorite authors, and she will be one I return to often.

I was gifted a copy in exchange for an honest review.
