The Redemption of Callie & Kayden by Jessica Sorensen
1.0
I really disliked this book. Probably to the point where I may never read anything else by Jessica Sorensen. Nothing about this was believable to me. So far fetched!
Isn't Kayden supposed to be on the football team? It's like the author just wanted him to be a hot football player/athlete, but didn't want to write that into the plot. She could have used sports as a way for him to "express his pain" (or something)- working out too hard, tackling with his head down, mouthing off to the couch, tackling too hard, playing dirty during games. But that entire plot line was ignored. I realize most of this book took place during December, but college athletics are serious. They generally expect you to work out year round.
This book draggggggggggggeeedddddd on. I felt like the same angsty scenarios played out over and over again. And then Callie and Kayden had sex. That was it- angst and sex angst and sex. It was obnoxious.
The character of Seth was HORRIBLE. He wasn't even a real person. It was like he only existed to act as Callie's therapist or conscious, or to make her do things she doesn't want to do that the author didn't know how to work into the storyline organically. He only showed up when he was needed and faded into the background when his presence was inconvenient.
I was really hoping everyone would die at the end because I started to hate every single character. Except for Luke. Only because he basically served no purpose except to have a car. So he didn't get a chance to infuriate me.
UGHHHHHHH
