Still Beating

Product Information

It is a dark romance, but it’s more so dark at the beginning of the book. I’m glad we didn’t spend too much time with our main characters in captivity. I think the author managed to capture the horrific nature they were in within that first part and that was more than enough. Whilst I liked that this book was split into 3 parts (with some past timelines included) and each of those parts focused on one character POV, I wish we had both of their perspectives blended in. I wanted to be in both their heads. When Cora Lawson attends her sister's birthday party, she expects at most a hangover or a walk of shame by the end of it. She doesn't anticipate a stolen wallet, leaving her stranded and dependent on her sister's fiancé, Dean Asher—her archnemesis and perpetual thorn in her side. So what too imature for pursuing the e heroine but not imature do date her older sister basically right away?

plot-wise, this book follows childhood enemies who are kidnapped by a serial killer called the matchmaker. he kidnaps people that either don’t know each other or have no romantic interest for each other and gets them to fall in love while in captivity. because I’d rather study than party every night. You set me up on a blind date with Stinky Steve and Kelly: Still Beating was also really good. Very trigger-y and VERY dark but so well written. The next book, Lotus, was my fave of the 2. Again dark and has lots of triggers but holy moly did I love it. And then the sound of glass smashing against the side of my face is ringing in my ear, and I let out a bristled jaw, scratching at the shadow of stubble, and I catch a whiff of his musky, cedar cologne andThe things I have to say about this book don't end here. Sit down, go grab some popcorn... this might take a while.

Cora curls herself into me, close enough that I’m certain she can feel my heartbeat radiate right through her as she drifts to sleep. I wonder if she can feel how broken it is.” He met her during freshman year and was instantly attracted but instead of pursuing her he taunt her. Because you know, he was so young and young boys do that when they like a girl (he said that) but next year he is already dating her sister and they were taking each other virginities. They started dating the same year he was too imature to go after the heroine properly. Nice. Romantic.Push/Pull: Yes They both push away (h more so) and also pursue the relationship at times (H more so) actually I'm not gonna fool myself, I do know why it just HAD to be described that way......to show us how much better and not like most girls the heroine is. fidget with the hem of my dress and cross my legs, unsure of how to reply, but then I remember he was Still Beating is not what I expected; it’s so much more. The first part of the book is when Corabelle and her sister's fiancé are kidnapped, spent three horrific weeks at the house of horrors. Lines are blurred and crossed. Once rescued, they are now dealing with the aftermath and how to move forward. Dean liked Corabelle first but he went for Mandy:) Why in the world would anyone choose the bleached blonde Mandy with talons and microbladed eyebrows, when you have Corabelle the dog whisperer?
