Synopsis
Sadie Slade was the love of my life.
I left for college promising her I’d be back in four years.
She stayed behind promising me she’d wait.
We both broke our promises.
When we bump into each other five years later my feelings for her come rushing to the surface.
I want her back.
She wants me gone.
How quickly my Sadie Girl has forgotten—I’ve never been the type of man who accepts defeat.
No matter the cost.
Jack Daniels was my entire life.
Until he wasn’t.
Now he’s back and thinks we should pick up where we left off.
I miss the simplicity of what we had.
I miss how easily we fit together.
Truthfully…I miss him.
But if I allow him to get too close, he’ll see I’m not the same girl he left behind five years ago.
He thinks I’m upset about our break up.
The truth is so much worse.
REVIEW
If i could give this book every star available i would!! Infinity stars!! God i'm sooo in love with it! 😍 I was seriously excited to learn that some of the Fighting kids were going to get a book. Its one of my all time favorite series so diving back into that world in any form was always gonna blow me away but this... This... speechless! Well not really but ramble ahead!
Jack and Sadie! I bloody love em!!
If you're a fan of the series you'll know Jack is Blakes son and Sadie is Jonah's daughter. Jonah and Blake are best friends so you just had this wonderful little tingle feeling that when they both had children close together that those children were meant to be. And YES they bleedin were!! Soul mates from the start they grow up together totally in love.
When it comes time for college they promise each other forever even though Jack is moving away. They plan their lives secure in the knowlege they're going to have an amazing life. Together.
Fast forward 5 years and a lot has changed. They're no longer Jack and Sadie. They haven't seen each other in nearly two years but a chance meeting while Sadie is working at Jacks friends wedding, brings them face to face. Sadie is not happy seeing him, he can read her too well and wants to run as far away as possible.
Jack? Well, just the sight of her changes his perspective on his life. He worked hard to get where he is in his chosen profession of advertising but the sight of Sadie shows him what he's missed on the way up. He missed a part of himself he let go. Sadie.
Sadie is having none of it but Jack is no quitter. He refuses to let her run. He's determined to get to know her again and won't let a little thing like her ignoring him stop his pursuit.
Now. The blurb gives you a clue about why Sadie is reluctant and when it dropped i cursed Ms Salsbury like nobody's business! And i was right to! 😭
This book it just.... it'll take you on an emotional rollercoaster. From the start i got this tight feeling in my chest. I got pulled in and the more i read the tighter my chest got. It got to the point... and don't judge me... but i got the point i had to check the end!! I went to the end of this book and read. I couldn't help it!! Yes i cheated!! I couldn't help it i was so uncomfortable. Now don't take this as a bad thing. It's a good thing. An amazing thing! I read dark and twisted books and don't bat an eyelid but this book. Ohhhh i got scared. You'll get to a certain scene and know why. God my heart broke! The impact it had on me was massive. So brilliantly written i felt it deep my soul. I had to know if it turned out ok in the end.
I usually say in review's what i liked about the two main characters seperately but i can't with this book because i loved THEM! I loved them so much even when they were apart. I loved them when they were struggling to reconnect. I loved them when they did get together. I loved them when they were with family. I loved them when they both messed up. God i love them so hard! And yes thats a whole lotta love. And i did warn at the start this was gonna be a ramble and here we are! Rambleville! 😂 but seriously. These two!
Also. Quick mention. I loved seeing Jonah and Raven, Blake and Layla again! That was definately a highlight. Plus Carey, Sadies brother. Hoping he's next!!!
As i've said i was pulled in from the start. The story takes you on an emotional road of soulmates losing their way to forever and their fight to get back on track. I couldn't put it down for anything.
The writing is incredible. JB Salsbury is an absolute genius at setting the scene and making you feel everything, from the gut wrenching low's to every butterfly enducing high. I promised myself no tears. I held out so well... until right at the very end over something really silly. Broke me! 😭 I was a bit of a mess lol but in the end the prevelant feeling was love. I'm so in love with this book!
It's been a struggle reading and reviewing this year and only a handful of books have stood out for me. This is one of them. I was eager to write this review and i haven't felt that in a long while. Highly recommend. Like super highly recommend. You can read without having read the fighting series but i suggest that too. It's also amazing!
Bloody Brilliant!
