Unloved by Peyton Corinne
4.0
For me, a great romance has to be a slow burn – I want lots of yearning, longing, and emotional connections to build on the messy journey full of trials and tribulations as characters fall in love that brings out the best in their relationship and themselves as individuals. One author who is ticking all the boxes for me is Peyton Corrine, an incredible writer who sculpts her story around emotionally evocative character-driven plots that can deliver heartwarming love stories that capture the nuances of depths of her characters' personalities, traumas, insecurities, and fears.
Unloved, the second book in the Undone series, is an exhilarating slow-burn romance that brings to life an intoxicating dynamic between the two love interests, Ro and Matty, whose story explores insecurities, self-worth, impacts of toxic relationships, and the messiness of being human. Their relationship is a beautiful example of how to build a solid and strong relationship based on respect, trust, and patience that is supportive and loving.
Corrine's character-building is the reason I devour her books – her characters are some of the most relatable ones I've read in a long time. I felt the pain and insecurities with very raw realism from Ro and Matty, who both hide their wounds behind masks as they struggle with self-worth and perceive themselves as not being enough for the toxic influences. Watching them overcome their limitations and the lies they believe is such an immersive and gripping inspirational character transformation that I couldn't tear my eyes away from the pages.
Thank you to Simon & Schuster and Peyton Corrine for sending me a gorgeous final copy of Unloved. I'm besotted with this book – it is truly a profoundly emotional, swoony love letter that shows that loving the right person is easy and you can love all of them (smiles, warts, flaws & complicated families in all).
