Resolution - Amanda Shelley - 4 stars
*ARC received in exchange for an honest review*
Resolution is book two in the Resilience duet by author Amanda Shelley. This book takes off in Germany where we left Samantha and Enzo in the hospital. The conclusion of the duet was everything I expected plus more. Samantha and Enzo are the sweetest couple and I love the banter between the two of them. Samantha with her no filter and sass and Enzo with his sweet insecurity enamored me from the start. The way that Amanda writes the intricacy of having kids and the difficulties that it can have on a new relationship is great and in my opinion adds to the book as a whole. I did find that some of the more dramatic aspects of the plot were only skimmed over and hinted it and I thought there was one or two plot lines I would of liked to have explored more, however, the book as a whole was a really enjoyable easy read that I would recommend.
Enjoy Everyday :),

This is book two in the duet by Am and Shelley and it continues the story of Enzo and Samantha. Book One ended in a big cliff hanger. Samantha is on her way to Germany to spend time with Enzo for his birthday after not seeing each other for a while as Enzo is completing his contract in The Air Force before returning home to Portland for good. Enzo has a surprise for Samantha but ends up getting an even bigger surprise himself. Will there time apart make them stronger or cause heartbreak. Omg you really need to read this duet and you will definitely not be disappointed as it is amazing. The chemistry between Samantha and Enzo is so strong but will it be enough know that they are separated yet again. Amanda Shelley is an amazing author and writer and her books are definitely worth reading.

I was excited to read the conclusion to Resilience. This book did not disappoint. It was so good. Enzo and Sam’s story was full of love, laughter and a little bit of angst. I loved reading about their journey to find love. The secondary characters were fantastic. Enzo’s family, Sam’s children and best friend made the story so enjoyable. I hope you pick up this duet and read it. I’m looking forward to more from this amazing author. I highly recommend this book.

As the name says it this is the perfect end for this book duet, i love this one as much as the first book, you'll fall even more for him, you just wish as some point to find someone like him 😅, I just didn't wish that it ends, now I'll have to find another perfect book, this won't be the las book from this author that I read. Go grab both nooks you won't regret it.

Emotional turmoil, real life situations, sweet and loveable
Enzo and Samantha not only get engaged, but surprise a pregnancy too. There are some scenes in this book you will pre your pants laughing. The most realistic are the teenagers and attitudes. The love of family is was keeps the storyline grounded. I couldn't believe how rotten the ex husband actually was, just wow. kudos to the author for making Sam such an outstanding parent, she never once had mouthed her ex husband. Sam also let her children Dr ice how they felt about Enzo becoming a part of their family. This was definitely a must read. Highly recommended for mature audiences

If you want to lose yourself in a great series...give this one a go!
Characters that are easy to root for and all that swirls around them in the storylines are super interesting.
Some great ins and outs, twists and turns. It's simply REALLY GOOD STORYTELLING.

Sam and Enzo are back and I was absolutely thrilled to start reading Resolution. Their love for each other is so strong that the long distance between couldn't keep them apart. Every turn of the page, kept me wanting more. Once again, I couldn't put the book down.

This is the 2nd and concluding part of Enzo and Samantha’s fantastic tale. This is a beautifully written story which has a tad angst, and is filled with witty banter, love and humour. I was totally captivated throughout this addictive page turner. I cannot wait to read more from this gifted author, and highly recommend her work for all readers.

I personally prefer more drama so while this was an easy read it wasn’t one of my favorites. If you’re looking for a nice love story with no drama then duet is totally for you. Enzo is such a nice guy which isn’t what I prefer but you have to love how perfect he is and in real life he is totally what every woman would hope to find.

This is the second book in the Resilience Duet series. It is a continuation of the first book, so if you haven't read the first, then you might be a bit lost. The book and series itself is a well-written and well thought out story and the author does a really great job of bringing it all together at the end. Sam and Enzo's story was full of love, laughter, and emotion. I loved following them on their journey to love and am happy with the way things ended. Wonderful story, and I think you should definitely give it a try!

This is a fast, passionate, and a whirlpool of emotions novel. It's amazing. The only little issues I had was that the same pieces would show up for example the 'thinking about world peace' it was funny and cute at first but the continued use of it dulled it down. I can suggest using other alternatives? This is a great book for those who love instant and soft but sexy romance books. Although I am more of a action, someone dying, heart crushing, I'm gonna cry for the character person but this was actually really nice especially since I was looking for something short and sweet. But now I'm dying to read the next book just because I need to know what happened 😂😂😂

Resolution is book #2 in The Resilience Duet by Amanda Shelley. Shelley wrapped up the duet in grand fashion. A surprise pregnancy, a fast wedding, a touch of family drama, and diving head first into a family. Enzo is seriously the unicorn man out there. Samantha deserves every bit of happiness the two of them carve out of their new life together.
This wrapped up the story how I imagined it would and I am very happy with the outcome of the duet. Glad I grab this one when it popped up on my kindle! @theoriginalmrsp

I rated Resolution 4.5 stars because I really appreciate when the drama isn't the typical miscommunication relationship drama. I prefer stories where the events that happen are things that the couple deals with together. I struggled a bit with the timeline where it wasn't consistent, but overall it was nice just to read the story and not focus on the little details. I would also love to see some bonus scenes like the father/daughter dance and telling Enzo's family (especially parents) about their big announcements, most especially the second surprise.
