Let It Be Me
Having graduated college at 18, Sebastian Grant has continued to leverage his intelligence and determination to become a pediatric heart surgeon. The more accolades he receives, the more he's driven to pursue. Then he meets high school math teacher Leah Montgomery, and his fast-spinning world comes to a sudden stop. Solving advanced math equations by the age of five, Leah has always wanted to pursue a PhD in mathematics. She willingly put that dream on hold to raise her brother. Now that he is of age, she's set on avoiding any obstacles to her goal--including romance. When Leah receives surprising news in the process of taking a test for tracking her ancestry, she asks Sebastian to help her comb through aged hospital records to learn more. Soon his presence isn't so easily ignored. But when Sebastian learns his best friend also has feelings for Leah, he begins to question his resolve to win her. Attaining their deepest desires may require more sacrifices than they ever imagined.

It started out with a great set-up and was briefly on the way to being a five star, but ultimately it tried to be too many things and include too many different story lines. The characters got overwhelmed and grumpy, and I as the reader felt like I lost touch with them about halfway through. They weren't relatable in their grumpiness over relatively minor issues, and some of the biggest issues of all were resolved extremely simplistically.
At least they got over themselves a bit at the end, enough to make me round up instead of down. A promising but mostly frustrating story, and the flirtation with a love triangle didn't help matters.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for a free reading copy. A favorable review was not required. My review is based off a final published copy of the book.
