I have only recently discovered Sloan Kennedy and have to say that I am hooked on anything that this author writes. This one is an engaging story about second chances and forgiveness. What made it even better for me was the story setting at a wildlife sanctuary. It provided a really great addition to the book and sets up a fun world for the characters to explore. The story is told in multiple points of view, with each character having a unique voice and their own obstacles to face, some more heartbreaking than others. The writing is smooth and really makes the story easy to follow, while still allowing the reader to experience lots of emotion. It's fast paced so it's a really quick read. I read it in one sitting, but everyone has their own reading speed and I often read books in one day. Loved the characters...everyone from the two main guys, Nolan and Dallas to all the backup characters. Nolan is a bit dramatic, and has a habit of jumping to conclusions, but their complexity and their struggles are what make the entire story incredibly satisfying, and their "Happy Ever After" is nothing short of perfect. ( ) I really loved this book up until 60%, where I started to feel like the author is trying to inflict as much pain and suffering on the MCs as possible without introducing actual physical torture. Oh, wait, there was that bear! :( Anyway, I would have done just fine with all of that if it wasn't for the finale. Everything, and I mean - e-veh-ry-thing - bent and twisted and in the end righted itself, short of resurrecting dead people. And so, while I enjoyed most of the book immensely and even got some perverted satisfaction out of the too-good-to-be-true ending, I can't give it more than 3.5 stars. Which way to go tho, which way to go? Ahhh, hell, I did read it well into the night, so - 4 stars in the end :) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Appartiene alle SeriePelican Bay (1)
I've spent years hoping someone would finally hear me. It's easier not to try anymore...Ten years after leaving his small Minnesota hometown in his rearview mirror for what Nolan Grainger was sure would be the last time, life has decided to throw the talented musician a curveball and send him back to the town he lived in but was never really home.At twenty-eight, Nolan has traveled the world as a successful concert violinist with some of the best symphonies in the country. But success breeds envy, and when Nolan's benefactor and lover decides Nolan has flown high enough, he cruelly clips Nolan's wings. The betrayal and ensuing scandal leaves the violinist's career in shambles and with barely enough money to start fresh somewhere beyond his vindictive ex's powerful reach. But just as he's ready to get his life back on track, Nolan gets the call he's been dreading.After a stroke leaves his father a partial invalid, duty-bound Nolan returns to Pelican Bay and a life he's spent years trying to forget. When he's forced to use the last of his own money to keep from losing the family home, desperation has him turning to the one man he'd hoped never to see again...Even if I could speak, there wouldn't be anyone there to listen...Pelican Bay's golden boy, Dallas Kent, had the quintessential perfect life. Smart, gorgeous, and popular, the baseball phenom was well on his way to a life filled with fame and fortune. But more importantly, he had a one-way ticket out of Pelican Bay and far away from the family who used love as currency and whose high expectations were the law of the land. But a stormy night, sharp highway curve and one bad decision changed everything, leaving Dallas with nothing.Because the accident that took his parents, his future and his crown as the boy who could do no wrong, also stole his voice.Despised for the horrific wreck that ended the lives of two of Pelican Bay's most respected residents, Dallas has retreated to a secluded stretch of land where he's found refuge in a menagerie of unwanted animals that don't care that he once had the world at his feet or that he'll never speak again.But when the quiet, bookish boy he wasn't allowed to notice in school suddenly reappears ten years later at Dallas's wildlife rehab center in desperate need of a job, Dallas is thrust back into a world he's worked hard to escape.Dallas's silence was supposed to send Nolan scurrying, but what if Nolan ends up being the one person who finally hears him?Will two men who've been fleeing from the past finally come home to Pelican Bay for good or will the silence drive them apart forever?
