Relentless by Cassia Leo
***** Beautiful Stars!
What a story! Claire has had a hard life her mother dies when
she is seven, and she is bounced around from one foster care home to
the next. She finally arrives at her last home wondering how long this
will last. She is very hesitant and anxious around boys/men. Her mother
has taught her how to "be safe." This has lead to many problems in
previous foster homes. Her new home though has Chris he is about her age
and really gets her. Over time they fall in love. Claire wants to go
off to college and Chris wants to go on the road with his band and
music. Claire and her amazing big heart decides that she will break up
with him so he can his dream. I loved Claire she is a beautiful tortured
soul, she has secrets that she holds on to that almost ruin her
relationship with Adam. She is no wimp, but yet she is goodhearted, and
someone you find yourself cheering for and hoping everything will turn
out okay. Sometimes I wish she would just tell Adam her secret because
gosh darn it I wanted to know too. Clair is great though she is corky,
silly and meditative. I also loved how she would quote movies, and Adam
would get it. Adam the man is hot and stalkish in a good way. He is so
sweet with Clair, but he to has secrets and serious anger issues. I
loved how they are patient with each other and don't give up. They give
each other the space they need yet are there for each other. Their's is a
beautiful love story of hope, love, loss, secrets, and trust. It is
beautifully written, I didn't want to put it down. Characters where all
wonderful besides Adam, Chris and Claire, Clair's best friend Senia, is
the best friend a person could have. Clair with all her issues is
blessed with a wonderful, fun , smart friend like Senia. Senia tells it
how it is and helps Clair see how life is and could be is she will have
a little faith in it. Really a wonderful story, go read it:D
