*ARC provided by NetGalley for an honest review*Breaking Nova (Book #1) Review-->http://realitybites-letsgetlost.blogs...When I finished reading Breaking Nova, I was a bit upset. I had become so invested in Quinton and Nova that I felt almost cheated at the end that I would have to wait for any type of resolution to their story. At the same time, I was also happy because it also meant I didn't have to let them go just yet. So, when I saw that Saving Quinton was available on NetGalley, I jumped at the chance to not only hopefully get closure but also to spend more time with Nova and Quinton.I knew going in that this one would be more difficult of a read than book one. And I was right. Quinton is living in the depths of hell and he has no desire to leave. He truly believes he is no one and deserves nothing. So, naturally when Nova shows up to help him, he does everything in his power to continue to push her away.While frustrating from a "I want my HEA" standpoint, it was realistic in a real life way. An addict truly will not accept help or make any attempts to get clean until they are ready. The author does an excellent job of portraying the rawness of someone so immersed in drug use and how it affects those around them. It is not a light and fluffy read, but a heartbreaking look into how lost Quinton truly is.And even though I am still left with no closure for these two characters that I have come to love, the ending is one I can walk away from and be okay with....for now. And thankfully there is not a long wait for the final chapter in their story as book #3, Nova and Quinton: No Regrets, is coming out April 15, 2014.
