Review: "The Edge of Never"



Sinopse:

"Twenty-year-old Camryn Bennett had always been one to think out-of-the-box, who knew she wanted something more in life than following the same repetitive patterns and growing old with the same repetitive life story. And she thought that her life was going in the right direction until everything fell apart.

Determined not to dwell on the negative and push forward, Camryn is set to move in with her best friend and plans to start a new job. But after an unexpected night at the hottest club in downtown North Carolina, she makes the ultimate decision to leave the only life she’s ever known, far behind.

With a purse, a cell phone and a small bag with a few necessities, Camryn, with absolutely no direction or purpose boards a Greyhound bus alone and sets out to find herself. What she finds is a guy named Andrew Parrish, someone not so very different from her and who harbors his own dark secrets. But Camryn swore never to let down her walls again. And she vowed never to fall in love.

But with Andrew, Camryn finds herself doing a lot of things she never thought she’d do. He shows her what it’s really like to live out-of-the-box and to give in to her deepest, darkest desires. On their sporadic road-trip he becomes the center of her exciting and daring new life, pulling love and lust and emotion out of her in ways she never imagined possible. But will Andrew’s dark secret push them inseparably together, or tear them completely apart?"

A minha opinião:

Confesso que comecei a ler este livro já com elevadas expectativas e talvez tenha sido esse o meu grande problema.

O romance surgiu de forma instantânea e completamente irrealista. Para além disso a Camryn, com todos os seus traumas e inseguranças, não teve qualquer problema em baixar a guarda e em entregar -se sem reservas a um desconhecido. O que para mim, não fez muito sentido.

Também no final, estava à espera de mais e de uma resolução mais elaborada dos acontecimentos. Tudo aconteceu de forma muito abrupta e a autora saltou alguns meses, que para mim seriam os meses que me faria mais sentido elaborar e seguir na história.

Contudo e apesar das dificuldades que tive com esta história, gostei de alguns aspectos "fofos" do romance e da história no geral. Mas podia ter sido muito melhor executada.

Nota: 3.5 estrelas.

E vocês, qual é a vossa opinião acerca deste livro? Aconselham-me a continuar com a série?

Beijinhos e leiam muito.
