I'm so thrown by this book right now. The story itself has amazing potential but the one thing I found myself consistently distracted by was the astounding lack of editing. Some sentences are painfully and disturbingly redundant, others are filled with blatantly wrong word usage. It's like the rough draft was published by mistake.
Nessa has managed to accomplish something that very few authors do for me - leave me wanting more. I have an almost desperate need to know what happens next. I love the characters and the plot. My only complaint is the same as the first book in the series - editing. There are incorrect word choice issues in every chapter. They aren't glaring but they are noticeable. Melissa's work deserves a great editor so that nothing detracts from her wonderful tale
Josephine's father was arrested for the murder of her mother, sister, and brother but she physically survived his brutality. She has put her trust in man and herself to overcome the demons taking resident within. She leans to her understanding rather than trust in God. Her father escapes prison and is believed to be in pursuit of her. Police officials come to offer her refuge but she delays because she wants to march for her early graduation from high school. Others suffer for her decision and she is kidnapped anyway. Psalm 37:23 "The steps of a good man or woman are ordered by God and he delights in His way." She had guilt issues because of her family's death but she was too young to make a difference then now she could have been less selfish.
Amazing mix of a sweet love story, and heartbreaking truths. Every girl needs a boyfriend like Zephyr, and nobody deserves him more than Joey. Can't help but love Zephyr and Joey but I also adored the other characters too.
After what this poor girl has gone through, and the tightened security all about her, you mean to tell me they just miss the beat for one night (the night before she leaves) and leaves her wide open to her father's evil rampage? It was too unbelievable for me. The ending just left me weary with this young girl 's plight.
Ok.... Much better with this second book! Wow!! The storyline just keeps getting better! Now... I'm only giving you two minutes to finish the third book!! Hahaha. I love these characters! In this book you are going to see and feel many emotions! You will laugh,cry,get angry,worry,and more! WTG Nessa! You are showing your ability more in second book! Can't wait to read the next one! So get busy girl! LOL... A lot less grammar errors in this one,but still a few that can be easily over looked.So happy to see how far you have come.
This is a wonderful series about a young woman who is very brilliant and flawed from her young life of abuse mentality and sexual child abuse. she thought she was safe with him being incarcerated. This is great series and I would recommend it to anyone who wants an excellent read.
I enjoyed reading this for the most part. The characters are well defined and the story developed at a good pace. I however was a bit tired of the teenage 'anx' moments but then this book is really for young adults.
