Review: Sad... Because of Luke
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 04 12, 2014
I was left with mixed feelings about Because of Luke. It's told in first-person present narrative and switches between the three main characters... Shannon, her younger sister Sheila, and Luke Black. Just by this set-up, you can imagine there's a love triangle but just how crazy the whole thing gets is impossible to imagine. At times, its hard to believe that none of them realize that Luke is involved with both sisters. And why is no one looking for Sheila? Isn't the band high profile enough for paparazzi to catch her in a photo even??There's plenty of drama when Luke goes off with his band, Sheila runs away, Shannon get back together with her last boyfriend, and then the reunion when Sheila returns. It deals head on with the realities of unprotected sex and doesn't sugarcoat anything. There's also plenty of sex in the book, along with a few hopeful moments. Until just when we think it might work out, it just as quickly turns tragic. And then, it ends. On a cliffhanger. Yes, a cliffhanger.The complete review has been posted at Guilty Indulgence Review Site. The book was provided to us through NetGalley.
