Sparks of Destiny: A Review of 'Entangled with You' by Liss Montoya

If you're looking for a heartfelt and exhilarating read, "Entangled with You" by Liss Montoya is a book you shouldn't miss. As the final installment in the With You Series, it masterfully brings together romance, sports, and a deep dive into mental health.

Plot Summary: Cattleya, a rising soccer star, has everything she ever dreamed of professionally. But she can't shake the memory of one magical night on the beach with Matías, a brilliant but anxious engineer. Four years later, fate brings them back together in an unexpected way. However, Matías doesn't recognize her at first. As they navigate their reawakened feelings, they must confront personal challenges and external threats to find their way back to each other.

Personal Opinion: This book captivated me from the start and held me until the very end. The chemistry between Cattleya and Matías is palpable from their very first meeting. Matías' nervousness and shyness around Cattleya are endearing, and their connection is electric. Watching their relationship develop and seeing how they both grow individually and together is truly beautiful.

Character Highlights:

• Matías: His journey is particularly compelling. His struggle with anxiety is portrayed with sensitivity and depth, making his character very relatable. His overthinking nature and his desire to put others first make you root for him to find his own worth and happiness.

• Cattleya: As a strong and determined soccer player, she breaks the mold of typical sports romances where usually the male character is the athlete. Her strength, both on and off the field, and her unwavering support for Matías are inspiring.

Key Moments: Chapters 27 and 28 are particularly intense, keeping me on the edge of my seat with their emotional depth and unexpected twists. These chapters alone make the book worth reading, as they encapsulate the high stakes and profound emotional connection between the characters.

Themes and Tropes: "Entangled with You" is rich with themes like second chances, overcoming personal demons, and the power of love. The book also delves into the dynamics of online dating and secret romance, making it a modern and relevant read. The representation of mental health, particularly anxiety, is done with great care and realism.

Final Thoughts: Overall, "Entangled with You" is a beautifully written book that blends romance, sports, and personal growth seamlessly. It's refreshing to see a strong female lead in a sports romance and the mental health representation adds a layer of authenticity to the story. This book not only tells the love story of Cattleya and Matías but also showcases their individual journeys towards self-acceptance and fulfillment.

If you love second chance romances, strong female characters, and stories that tug at your heartstrings, "Entangled with You" is a must-read. Liss Montoya has done a fantastic job of creating a story that is both emotionally gripping and satisfying.

Trigger Warnings: Mental Health (Anxiety), Gun Violence, Threats, Kidnapping.
