Summary:

Tormented rock star Liam O’Reilly left Dublin and achieved success, hoping to build a new life, free from the demons of his past. Now that seems he’s got everything he ever wanted, why isn’t he happy? Is it because he’s realized that the most important thing in his life is the promise that he never kept?

Sensitive and damaged Rain O’Donovan lives with her brother and his friends in a tiny seaside town north of Dublin. Once a popular and lively schoolteacher, a car accident has wrecked her life, so that her only pleasure is walking in the rain, and her world revolves around mundane tasks, devoid of hope for the future. The amnesia around the time of the accident that changed everything means that her struggle with life is a day-to-day torture, and, more than anything else, she longs for answers.

When Liam returns to his home town after his two-year absence, he’s determined to try to make amends for the terrible mistakes he made. But is it too late to put things right?

Rainy Days is a complete standalone and a part of the Four Days Series.

My Thoughts:

Oh my gosh! What an emotional roller coaster that was. I’m not even sure I can articulate the words that need to be said in my review.

*Some Spoilers Ahead*

My heart broke so much for Liam and Rain. They have been through so much together, with the car accident, Neil dying and Rains memory loss.

The thing that got me the most was that even after everything that had happened Rain was still able to remember her love for Liam.

Liam had his success as a solo musician yet he is broken. There was always a piece missing and he had to get to get it back. He goes back home because he needs to make amends for the things that has happened.

Rain was an amazing leading lady. My heart broke more than once reading her POV. After the accident she was unable to go back to work so she gets a job at her brothers bar Only4You, since she now has limitations on what she can do. Having amnesia isn’t helping her either. When she starts to get her memory back piece by piece I was excited an happy to known she was getting her memory, then it all happened at once and it was heart breaking. Especially when she confronted her brother and his friends.

Liam and Rain are both broken yes but the way they piece one another back together was truly heart warming.
