My eyes grew wide and my stomach fluttered. Imagining his lips on mine caused my mouth to water in anticipation. The air between us grew tangible, and I could think of nothing else. I moved my chest closer to his, and felt my breath grow shaky. The moment his hand rested against my cheek, I melted into his palm and closed my eyes. I parted my lips slightly and waited for him to move. The air puffed out of his nostrils and his face moved closer to mine. He wrapped his other arm tightly around my waist and pulled me close. Time felt as though it was dragging along on purpose, just to torture me, until finally his lips brushed mine and offered sweet respite. A deep whine was pulled from my lungs, and I craved more as I tangled myself into him. “Child, I know what it’s like to feel like a stranger in your own body. To not have any control, or answers as to why things are so. How painful it is to move through the day to day, and continuously give yourself a reason to fight, when all you want to do is just go to sleep and have it all be over and done with. Tell me why am I sitting here voluntarily having my body poisoned to fight this demon, when I know ultimately I am going to lose? Why do any of us here keep fighting?” I looked around and all eyes were upon us. The room had fallen silent, and not one person dared to respond. Raina’s hand reached out for my cheek and was quickly soaked with tears. I didn’t have to ask why. I knew. “For love,”
Where do I begin? I loved this book! I was sucked in
immediately and couldn’t put this book down. I even made my kindle read to me
in my car on the way into work. JL Brooks really did a great job bringing me
into the story to the point that it was my life for 24 hours.
Stella Brady is a rock chick who used her partying ways to
keep people away. She had walls built around her since leaving her family and
friends behind. Fate stepped in and forced her to start again. Enter Julian. He
is gorgeous, kind and had been in love with Stella since they were teenagers.
This story really had great qualities to it. I am a sucker
for second chance romances and Stella and Julian really had an amazing story
together. Julian is so sweet and patient with Stella that it was swoony to
read. There were some parts in the book that I was yelling at the characters.
Cursing the author for making me fear what was coming next. The feels were all
here for me with this story!
I highly recommend picking up this book. It was a great standalone
love story.
