Kat's Review
❝ It's just a year Connor. Do the work. Stay focused. No distractions..❞
'HEARTACHE AND HOPE'
is the first full length, young adult book in Jay McLean's 'Heartache' duet. Spoken in 'Dual POV's' In this we meet Ava and Connor.
A unique painfully raw, thought provoking rollercoaster of a read. My most fav author is baccckkkkk with a vengeance!!!
Without going overboard this author right here is my most highly recommended author..Her #MORE series is one of my all time #FAVOURITES and is the #ONLY series or even #BOOKS for that matter that I have #EVER re-read!!
God what a roller coaster of a read Heartache and Hope was, a slow burn that quickly got its hooks into me and never let go..
So many feels that kept coming at me like a yo-yo my heart couldn’t take any more, what Ava went through on a daily basis with no bright light shining in the distance was a bitter pill to swallow, my heart was in constant turmoil. Such a strong, resilient character, her heart was bigger than the ocean.
My head and my heart were forever at war over the injustice of Ava's life, but at the end of the day I empathised on such a profound level with her, she had such a strong love for her mother, but with her mother came her disabilities which became Ava's daily responsibilities, she had the world on her young shoulders at the age of seventeen. My heart went out to her. She wasn't afforded a normal teenage life that many took for granted, she missed out on so much, she lost friends, she missed days of school, she never partied, to start a relationship with a guy was out of the equation because she wouldn't be able to give him her all.
Connor strived to make his father proud of him and with that 'the end game' Four years. Graduate. NBA. was always in his sights a girl would distract him too much. New comer to town Connor was on a basketball scholarship at St. Luke's Academy.
But that's not how this story goes. These two were made for each other, Connor noticed her the very first day of school.The girl was crazy hot; all naturally tanned skin and legs upon legs beneath her school-issued skirt.
With my never ending heartache I always had hope at the bottom of my heart that these two would get their well deserved HEA..
