What Do You Want? - K. Dosal Mclendon

Ramblings of a Bookworm...

I have been anxiously awaiting Liam and Vanessa's story, and I was definitely not disappointed.  Their chemistry is undeniable and I found myself unable to put their story down.  Ever since the first installment of the What Do You trilogy, What Do You See?, I've been in love with Liam - in my mind, he's the perfect mix of tall, dark, and handsome with a heart of gold.  Vanessa and Liam are opposites, yet so similar at the same time.
Rules, restrictions, or any kind of limitations are hard for me to follow.  I like dancing on the verge of trouble
Vanessa's sass, spunk, confidence, and love of books quickly made her one of my top heroines, and I found myself cheering for her throughout the novel whilst simultaneously shaking my head at Liam.  No relationship is ever perfect, and these two were no exception.

K. Dosal McLendon is phenomenal at attention to detail without being overly wordy and taking away from the true meaning of the book, as well as weaving a full spectrum of emotions and feelings, and I could truly see and feel every word, every page, every chapter.  I'm so excited to see what she comes out with next.

*Synopsis*

𝐋𝐢𝐚𝐦
Family, soccer, and friends, it’s what I’m best at.
And after Lucy left seven months ago, it’s all I’ve focused on.
The last year of college is here, and aside from soccer, I don’t know what I want.
Especially after screwing my best friend, the girl with ripped jeans, Doc Martens, and a spicy attitude. Since then, Vanessa’s attitude isn’t the only thing spicing up between us either.
Do I take the risk, knowing I could lose my best friend?
Or stay friends and miss out on the greatest love of my life?
I’m bound to screw something up.
After all, I’m Liam Raynolds.

𝐕𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚
I’m always hiding under my laptop or books, bidding in digital currency, hacking, or getting lost with the month’s current read, anything to keep everyone at an arm’s length and my armor intact from becoming someone’s second in life.
Because somehow, I always am.
And the last thing I expected as an international student was finding a best friend who easily chipped away and closed that distance without a trail.
I never planned for Liam; it just happened.
I know what I want, but the clock is ticking, and once I graduate in the fall, I’ll be gone.
Decisions need to be made.
But who’s flipping the coin?
