A review by grettypop
Hopeless by Elsie Silver
3.0
Beau Eaton, our recently wounded secret ops veteran is struggling with his PTSD, depression, and mental health after going missing on a mission. To ease his ache, he's been visiting his favorite local bar. More importantly, he's been visiting Bailey Jensen, the youngest sister of the infamous Jensen clan (the town's trash, basically).
Of course, sparks fly, and on a whim they come to an agreement to help each other out.
Now if you can overlook the obvious plot holes; the strings that get dangled in front of you, but never get appropriately wrapped up; the mention of so many sexual firsts that later do not get shown; and the obvious age difference innocent/experienced dilemma -- THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU.
I will say, I enjoyed myself. Once I got past the 10% mark, I flew through this book in a day. The vibes were great. The romance could be felt.
It's not my favorite in the series, and I was especially annoyed by the author's horrible description of depression and the fact that it just magically gets cured from one day to the next.
But... This is just a book.
