Synopsis
Shay Gable hated my guts, and I hated hers, too.
We went out of our way to avoid one another at all times. When she came my direction, I went the other. When we locked eyes, she’d turn and walk away.
All of that changed the day I was presented with a challenge. It started out as a stupid bet: make Shay fall in love with me before I fell in love with her first.
That was an easy bet for me to win.
I didn’t love, I hardly liked.
Yet slowly the game started to shift. Shay made me crave things I never knew I wanted.
Love.
Happiness.
Her.
The closer we grew, the more she challenged my darkness, and the parts I kept locked away.
The hurts.
The pains.
The truth.
The game between us became too real, our feelings intermixed, and the risks of hurting one another grew higher.
But you know what they say...
All’s fair in the game of love and war—especially the heartbreaks.

My Review
'LANDON & SHAY'
is Part One in Brittainy C. Cherry's full length romance duet. We've already been introduced to these two previously in Eleanor & Grey
It all started with a bet..But ended in truths.
These two characters despise each other!! It's been this way since middle school.
I started this not knowing if I liked it or not, and was already flitting towards a 4 star rating, and I think that's only because I didn't really connect with Landon at that stage. But somewhere along the way like a slow burn, he captured my heart like this book and not once was it released!
The feels came rushing at me literally out of nowhere, my heart was breaking but filling up with so much love for these characters, they crawled into my heart and left their stamp! What a roller coaster of a ride!
This book touched on some heavy real to life raw, emotional subjects and was done sensitively, and beautifully.
So much darkness is embedded within Landon, Shay calls him Satan, but within all that darkness his heart is true, you just have to trust in this author to show you.
Shay is like a ray of sunshine, her happy go lucky persona and her knack for reading people and delving deeper than what is presented to the outside world blind sided Landon. She was spot on with her impression of him.
To sum these two up as a couple, Landon was perfectly imperfect for Shay but ended up being perfect for her.
