They say love hurts, but that is not true. Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Losing someone hurts. Jealousy hurts. Love can get blurred with these things. But in reality love is the only thing in this word that matters and that can cover up all the pain and make someone feel alive. And for Ysa and Sebastian the journey of finding that happily ever after is one long emotional and touching tale of rediscovering each other. It is easy to give your heart to someone but its harder to keep that love alive and burning with passion when secrets, fears, jealousy and lies can destroy not one but two lives. And so begins the tale of Ysa and Sebastian as they rediscover what truly matters in life? Will the past of their sins and mistakes continue to haunt them? Or will their journey lead them back together? Is their love worth fighting for? They say in order to know if its real love, you have to let them go and if it comes back to you then you know it was meant to be. Will one of them be coming back?

MVP by M. Robinson is one emotional heartbreaking and yet sexy story of two lovers connecting, rediscovering, and learning again. Though their love affair might not be of fairy tales, it is a love story like no order. What started out as an affair, blossomed into a love where two souls connected and intertwined as one. The hardest part of loving someone with a past is accepting their past love and life. Insecurities, doubts, and fears may have played a big factor in Ysa's turmoil of what is right and wrong, but Ysa's growth as a character has truly blossomed into a young woman rediscovering her inner strength. She may have once been a VIP but that does not define her. What defines her now is her love for her family, friends, and Sebastian. The raw emotional vulnerabilty of Ysa will capture your heart because you understand the depth of a woman trying to make up for her past mistakes especially when it came with Julia and Christian. And as for Sebastian, the love and devotion he has for Ysa was never doubted but what I truly love about this book is his strength to finally voice out his concerns and anger. Love is not watching in the sidelines but it is also making a stand. And in doing so, Sebastian has come to a crossroads in his life where he must learn that sometimes letting to is the best thing to do.

What can I say but what a sexy, emotional, heartbreaking ride M. Robinson took her readers on. I will be the first to admit, I hated Sebastian in VIP there was no ifs and or buts. I didn't like his character at all. I didn't think he was book boyfriend material. But you know what, my opinion on him changed drastically in MVP. Sebastian has truly evolved and grown as a redeemable and worthy man. I found myself liking Sebastian a lot in MVP because M. Robinson finally made readers like myself see the vulnerability and loving side of Sebastian. I love a book when an author can make you see that we are all flawed and no one is perfect. The love of Sebastian and Ysa is not perfect but what true love is. The beauty of love is not seeing the imperfection but accepting that their imperfect love is perfect for them. And for Ysa and Sebastian, their love doesn't need to be perfect but it just needs to be true.
