RUSH: Deluxe Edition by Emma Scott
5.0
Rush: Deluxe Edition by Emma Scott is a fabulous story about a young man, Noah Lake, an extreme sports athlete, journalist, and photographer until an accident left him in a coma. He awakes to find his career gone; his dreams shattered to pieces, his world an endless blackness that will never lift.
Charlotte Conroy, age 21, a Montana living in NYC attending Juilliard student studying the violin, was dating her first boyfriend, Keith Johnson. Keith was part of the Spring Street Quartet, and Charlotte was the first chair until her brother, Chris, died, and she had to go back home for his funeral. When she came back to NYC, everything was gone, including the boyfriend. Charlotte worked two jobs, one bartending and then waitressing, and she still was having a difficult time making her rent payment. Lucien Caron entered the place where she was waitressing and made her an offer she couldn't refuse. Charlotte began working as a personal assistant to Noah Lake.
Charlotte begins to see that beneath Noah's angry, brittle exterior is a young man in pain. She is determined to show him that his life isn't over, that he has so much to live for, never dreaming that she would become the only light in his darkness or that he would help her find the music in hers. The life he knew was over. The life she wants is just out of reach. Together, they must face their fears and rediscover what it means to live. "Pretty good, but not quite enough." "The best thing to do is rarely the easiest."
Emma Scott has a way of breaking your heart and then mending it back together but leaving you restless.
