How do you lose everything?
Ask January Cooper.
She was the daughter of a Dallas multimillionaire, the debutante of the year, and the girl most likely to get whatever she wanted.
But when her father is arrested for securities fraud, the girl who had everything starts to lose everything. And once she starts falling, she can't seem to stop.
When she walks into Christian Cutlass's bar, she meets the first person who sees all the way through her. And Christian Cutlass meets the first girl who doesn't care about who he used to be and what he lost one night when he was nineteen years old.
She's gorgeous and hurt. He's twisted in too many ways to count. She's the girl with nothing left to lose. He was the boy who lost everything he lived for.
How do you lose everything? You start by falling.
"And the truth is, this makes more sense if it's somebody's fault. but it's not. It's not anybody's fault. It just happened."
*COPY PROVIDED BY AUTHOR FOR AN HONEST REVIEW*
Emotionally wrecking but it also pieced my heart together as the two slowly fell in love. The characters were both deliriously stubborn with issues stacked higher than Mount Everest. Yet the two, in the midst of despair, managed to find solace and comfort in each other.
Audrey Bell has created yet another wonderfully written book. Although honestly it was slightly lacking in the emotional connection, the dialogue and the characters' actions were written so wonderfully, especially since the point of views kept alternating so we get a look into both their heads.
We've first got Christian Cutlass who basically lost everything that one fateful night. No, not everything. He's still a man with hope but also a man filled with guilt. He doesn't think he deserve any happiness.
On the other hand, January Cooper had everything. Wealthy, beautiful and popular. Well, if you don't count the fact that one of her ex-boyfriends is a cheating stoner and the other is a impulsive cheater on drugs. But the exposure of her father's fraud flipped her world on its axes. No money, no home, nothing. It was her against the world.
Although they both showed significant emotional pain, they always managed to work through it. January rarely ever cried until what happened, until she realized how vulnerable she actually was. Christian was perfectly content with his average life but then the guilt and the pain kept building up inside of him until it burst like a dam.
However, the two connects in a way that is difficult for other couples, which is through pain. Beautiful, intricately written and just wonderful. Wonderful sigh.
