Despite his internal struggle when lines started to blur, I found him to be incredibly loyal. And he certainly never imagined himself susceptible to the position he found himself in. Truly one of those guys with a heart of gold. He was so sweet, so kind and compassionate. I have a thing for guys with a protective nature and the way this manifested in his relationship with Maggie had me hooked. Ridge was a character I couldn't help but fall for. She showed maturity and respect and selflessness. And she the way she handled the situation she found herself in was admirable.
She was strong, she stood up for herself, she was kind and craved independence. Sydney was a main character that I liked right away. And even as they struggled against it I couldn't help but be drawn in and wish fervently for their 'maybe someday.' The growing love and connection between Sydney and Ridge was simply beautiful to witness. Some parts were just so painful and made my heart so heavy that I'd have to stop, take a breath, and remind myself that I was reading fiction. My heart ached for Sydney and Ridge (and Maggie). Hoover has a way of developing characters and situations that are so real, so emotional and so utterly believable. Two people who find themselves in an impossible situation and are riddled with guilt and confusion over feelings that, despite their best intentions, can't be ignored. Instead, the conflict is almost solely internal. There's no evil government to overthrow, no innocent victim that needs saving at the eleventh hour, not even a lot of overwrought family drama. Maybe Someday is a novel without a lot of external conflict. I've had several Colleen Hoover novels on my bookshelf for many months (Hopeless, Losing Hope, Finding Cinderella, and Maybe Someday) and all I can think after finishing this one is: what took me so long? Because there's no way to rein in my feelings for this remarkable story. "My heart made its choice, and it chose you."
