by Jessica Sorensen
Series: The Secret #1
Genre: New AdultPublisher:
I received this book at BEA, from Hachette (Grand Central Publishing), in exchange for an honest review.
Ella
and Micha have been best friends since they were kids. But one tragic night
shatters their friendship and their lives forever.
Ella
used to be a rule-breaker with fiery attitude who wore her heart on her sleeve.
But she left everything behind when she went to college and transformed into
someone that follows the rules, keeps everything together, and hides all her
problems. But now it’s summer break and she has nowhere else to go but home.
Ella
fears everything she worked so hard to bury might resurface, especially with
Micha living next door. If Micha tries to tempt the old her back, she knows
that it will be hard to resist.
Micha
is sexy, smart, confident, and can get under Ella’s skin like no one else can.
He knows everything about her, including her darkest secrets. And he’s
determined to bring his best friend, and the girl he loves back, no matter what
it takes.

My Thoughts:
The
amount of emotional baggage between Ella & Micha wouldn’t even begin to fit
in a suitcase. They have tragic pasts and that makes this such a bitter sweet
book but it’s written in such a way as to not weigh the reader down. I really
appreciated that lighter writing style. I easily fell in love with both Ella
& Micha and I was rooting for them to get their happily ever after throughout
the whole book. I was also hoping Ella would be able to begin healing and
moving on rather than acting as if it her past never happened.
I
absolutely plan to read more of Jessica Sorensen’s books in the future!
Overall Rating: 4.5 out of 5
I read this book about a week ago. I was a little hesitant because for some reason I was under the impression that it was darker than it was. But, I was pleasantly surprised. I really loved this story. I love stories about friends that get together. But, this was so much more than that. They had such a great story and I really felt for them and their issues they had to overcome.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read the next one that comes out for Ella and Micha.
