Unconditional (Always Book 1) Kindle Edition
There’s no such thing as unconditional love, right? Right?
Maci
I know it seems like I’ve got the world at my feet, but don’t always believe what you see. Yes, I’ve won a scholarship to Australia to study koalas, and yes, the hottest stranger I’ve ever met kisses me almost the second I arrive. And sure, that stranger just happens to be in the dorm room down the hall from me and every time he looks at me I know exactly what he’s thinking and it sends an excited thrill through me.
But Raphael doesn’t know what I know: that my future is pretty much written and romance isn’t a part of it, no matter how much I wish it was.
Raphael
I wasn’t planning on falling for the American student who has no idea who I am. Maci makes me smile and forget about the paparazzi stalking my every move. Suddenly I’m thinking about a life with her in it all the time, and that’s a life I like the thought of. When I’m with her, I feel grounded and happy and ready to face anything. But there’s something Maci is not telling me. Something she insists will make me not want her at all.
Something that, when I find out, makes me reassess what I thought I knew about life, love, and happy ever afters. Something that changes everything.

"What an all-around wonderful story this was. UNCONDITIONAL tugged at so many emotions in me. It made me laugh, it gave me butterflies, and it made me cry. This might just be one of the strongest, and most uplifting, new adult stories I've read." - FIVE STARS, Under the Covers Book Blog
"What an amazing novel! Every time I turned the page, I was flooded with new hilarious situations that made me smile or laugh, swoon worthy moments, toe curling encounters and panty melting events! I can't even begin to explain how much fun I had while reading Unconditional. It was fantastic surprise and I'm still in awe." - FIVE STARS, Smokin Hot Book Blog
From the Author
Writing Unconditional was a way for me to process the impact PD has had on my family's lives and how it will impact on us in the future. And while Unconditional is sad at times, it's also full of lots of laughter and humour...because if my dad and brother have taught me anything about having Parkinson's, it's that laughing at it is one of the best ways to go.

LEXXIE COUPER
Review by Author Roy Murry
Maci has won a scholarship to study koalas in Australia. Raph is a celebrity attending the University of Sydney because his sister married a prince.
She has Parkinson's, which in many ways controls her life. Because of an episode, they meet in the Airport men's bathroom and kiss, which sets the tone for their adventure.
Both are gorgeous, according to the people around them and how they see each other. However, Maci and Raph have hidden flaws.
This novel is a romance, so you know they will fall for each other without revealing their complete background. Unfortunately, these problems lead to some interruptions in it.
Raph's love is unconditional, he says, and he proves it unconditionally at the end of the story.
Lexxie Couper's writing will win you over to buy the series.

From the very first chapter I flat out loved Maci Rowling and I’ll be the first to admit her first thoughts after hitting Australian soil are so me. I’ve been infatuated with Australia ever since I read the Thorn Birds way, way, way back in my high school days. So yes, I’d be looking for the kangaroos, koalas, the hot guys with the accents to die for, and those damn Tim Tams I hear so much about. I admire her so much for taking the chance and making the journey despite the illness that she’s inflicted with knowing the trip could exasperate her illness. I love the way she handles things when they go wrong and I love how she makes the most of her time; making friends, experiencing the local culture, defending her research, and yes…falling in love.
I wasn’t sure what to think of Raphael Jones at first because he kind of came off as an arrogant prick but as the story went on I realized there was a lot of depth to his character. He’d been through a lot recently and thus found it hard to trust anyone especially someone who he met in the men’s room at the airport, but at times I really did want to knock him upside the head and there were a few times I was hoping Maci would pick another guy. However, Raph really wowed me with his acceptance of Maci’s illness, his willingness to understand it, and his utter devotion to her.
While this book mainly focused on the budding relationship between Maci and Raph the secondary characters were so charming that I must give them a nod; Heather the effervescent girl put in charge of welcoming Maci offered insight, gossip, comic relief and was a great sounding board to Maci. She also became one of her closest friends. Brendon (Biceps), the University Fitness Center Manager, proved to be a great friend, fierce protector, and the big brother Maci never had. I flat out loved these two so much and they both added so much to this story. I’m already hoping we see stories for them both and soon!
While there is some angst in this book it is not overdone and the characters really don’t dwell on it. As I said before these two have been through a lot in their lives and they are very strong individuals who are perfectly capable of picking themselves up, dusting themselves off, and moving forward.
Honestly, it was refreshing to see young people with such good, solid heads on their shoulders; not afraid to go after what they want, not afraid to make mistakes, and not afraid to take a risk even knowing the outcome might not be pretty.
From the moment I finished reading this book I couldn’t stop thinking about it and that continues; my heart is still so full of love for these characters and I’m having a bit of trouble letting them go. Unconditional by Lexxie Couper will be a book I read again and again and I can guarantee every time I hear Unconditionally by Katie Perry I will think of Maci and Raph. This sums them up perfectly, “I will love you unconditionally and there is no fear now. Let go and be free.”
Review copy provided for a voluntary review.
Arriving at her lodgings for the next few months there will be a lot to learn and she needs to keep focused and take her meds but when she runs into gorgeous guy from the airport and finds that he is some sort of celebrity and also another student staying at the same place is going to throw them together and the instant pull is never going to go away not matter how hard she tries to ignore it.
Raphael is always being pursued by paparazzi but he is drawn to American girl he cannot understand why she is trying to push him away at first but when he does he goes out of his way to understand her condition as their relationship heats up.
There were lots of ups and downs in this story as MS Couper brings out the problems associated with Parkinson’s disease and how it can affect relationships, it is not an easy way to nurture love but when two people love each other there will always be a way. There are some very good characters in this story Heather, Brendon who add some smiles along the way. I did enjoy this story it is moving and emotional at times to see Maci cope with her life and love and what she has been through and Raphael really is gorgeous and caring as they have a very steamy relationship.
