Wrecked by Priscilla West
4.0
I received this book free from the publisher at NetGalley. This does not affect my opinion of the book or my review in any way.
A good book. I thought it had a good storyline, it was nice to read a book about collage age young adults (university age in the UK). I just felt it added a bit of a twist because of all the normal drama that goes on during that time, in this instance gossip. This book is a prime example on how you shouldn't let gossip rule your life and how it can make situations even worse.
I really liked Lorrie and Hunter as characters. They both have their own issues to deal with - Hunters we don't find out until near the end of the book. They're both characters that are relatable to some extent as they both have personal tragedies to deal with. I like how they connect really well in spite of everything that tries to get between them, I feel it makes them stronger as a couple.
I found Hunter quite a respectable bloke. Right from the start he's shown that he respects Lorries' decision to just be "friends" friends, lol, even though he's made it perfectly clear that he finds her attractive. In his own way he's everything you'd wish for in a man; he's understanding, he prefers talking to arguing, he's well-built, he'll give you your space, and he's also romantic and fun to be with... *dreamy sigh* if only, right girls? Due to the type of character he is, you're secretly slapping Lorrie across the face at various points in the story so she'll get her act together and see that he actually likes her. Yes he's played around, but he's serious about you girl!
The book does get steamy in places, between the hormones and the new found love that's to be expected. I won't say any more on the topic because I don't want to give the good bits away!
I'd definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes college drama, young romance, troubled backgrounds and two people finding comfort in spite of it all.
