4.5 stars!Oh my – new favorite Sorensen couple alert!!! For anyone who has read Callie and Kayden, we know that Luke and Violet come with baggage. What I didn’t expect was what kind of baggage until I started reading The Destiny of Violet and Duke. I am literally shattered reading the history behind these two and it breaks my heart countless times as I read this book.I had a totally different take on Violet in the past books – I thought she was kinda slutty and into drugs. I learned while reading this book why she is the way she is – why she closes herself off to people and intentionally says mean things.Conversely, I’ve always liked Luke – yes he was borderline OCD with his cleanliness and he smoked and drank a lot but I always thought he was a good friend to Kayden. Being a mother and seeing his past with his mom literally makes me ill.With both characters, it was so intense and emotional….I wanted to jump into my kindle and smother them both with love. Their attraction was undeniable and more than once while I was reading I wanted to yell at them to wake up and see how good they could be together! Luke wants to protect Violet yet he doesn’t understand his need to and she won’t let him. Both characters so broken so flawed that they don’t recognize the good and light in each other.I enjoyed this book immensely. It was so dark and so sad for me. It was hard for me to get through at times because I kept waiting for the happy and hoping with my heart that they could find it in each other.In true Jessica fashion, she has left us with a cliffhanger! Truths come out that shock the heck out of me….Where I thought I might have seen the silver lining and the light at the end of the tunnel comes crashing down as Violet and Luke realize that their history is intertwined.Will they ever be able to find happiness? And truthfully how can someone move on from this?We will have to wait and see in book 2 The Probability of Luke and Violet – enjoy an excerpt below!Jessica is a true artist being able to evoke such emotions from her readers - I have experienced the gamut reading her books and I always come back for more…I can’t wait to see what happens next!4.5 stars!Oh my – new favorite Sorensen couple alert!!!
