Blurb
If love is a salvation for some, for me it was a damnation. Until I met her.
We both understand what it means to lose the love of our lives.
We both refuse to have another relationship.
We both think we’ll never love again.
And then our worlds collide.
She’s the storm to my dangerfree life.
I’m the anchor to her wildness.
She’s reckless.
I’m guarded.
But in reality, we’re both pretending.
What if love is what we need to mend our broken hearts?
MY REVIEW
Oliver is dreading going back to Virginia. Virginia means facing the people he doesn't want to face. Facing the past he doesn't want to face. But he meets Tessa. She's as broken as he. They've both lost someone, both feel that loss, feel that grief, feel that guilt. Neither wants love again, or commitment, so a little fwb while he's there should be fine. Except not. Not when there are outside forces that would love to tear them apart. Not when neither has healed enough to let someone else into their heart. Except maybe those hearts are just ripe for love, and they can have it with each other if they can get out of their own way...

Angsty, emotionally intense, a bit all over the place, and lots of push and pull. I enjoyed this story but can admit I wanted less angst and a lot more communication between the two. I get that both are broken and damaged, but those very things about both of them bugged me a tad. Not enough to affect my rating much, but enough for me to mention it. But Mended is well-written and mostly entertaining and I'd definitely like to know more about the world it's set in.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...

Coming back to my small Wyoming hometown was supposed to be temporary. I only planned to stay long enough to help my ailing mother and sort through the mess of my family’s old belongings. Instead, I somehow ended up living in Evan Ricci’s house. The single dad now owned a bunch of properties and one of them was the place I’d rented. He’d taken it off the market and moved in before I got there. I just never got the memo. Unfortunately, there was no other place in town available, so Evan let me stay. Evan—the guy my parents took in years a...
