SUMMER'S BOOK BLOGCompromising is the follow up novel to Fraternizing by C.C. Brown. These two novels give us the story of Cassie and Alex and both must be read in order to get the full story. Alex is a staff sergeant in the Marines and Cassie is his student. They embark on a forbidden love affair and unfortunately they get caught after something terrible happens to Cassie. Compromising is the story of what happens after that time. Alex and Cassie face many trials and obstacles in their short relationship, some of them so big that most couples would not be able to overcome them. Was their relationship worth all the risks they took to be together?Alex is stubborn and intense while Cassie is strong and feisty so they make for quite the couple. Their love is passionate and their fights are heartbreaking. Their relationship is an absolute roller coaster throughout the novel. One thing I love about Cassie is that she is a strong female character that isn't afraid to stand up to the over protective and often crazy Alex. This book is filled with incredibly well written drama, it is a terrific example of a forbidden love story. They have a love so strong that they are both willing to give up everything they have worked for in order to be together. C.C. Brown will stir up many emotions with this book, at some points I cried, at others I was angry and at others I was just filled with joy at Alex and Cassie's fierce love. Everything about this story was just perfectly written, lots of love, secrecy sex, drama, and fighting. Best of all, it was all backed up by excellent secondary characters that play an important role in the story. I definitely recommend both Fraternizing and Compromising if you're looking for an excellent forbidden romance novel!
