This is my 5 star review for Lean on Me by Nicola Haken for Eskimo Princess Book Reviews.Lean on Me is Jared and Rachel’s story. Their story takes place at the same time as the book 2 between Dexter and Emily. Jared is a spoiled rich guy with a funny and soft side. He cares so much for his Saffy but can he convince her that his feelings run deeper than just friendship. She gets his humor and gives back to him just as much as he dishes out. Will he be able to handle all the things life is about to throw their way? Will he be what she needs him to be?Rachel is in a wheelchair, but you can’t really tell it. She is smart and beautiful with a character like none other. She doesn’t hold anything back. She likes to tell people exactly what she thinks of them and she doesn’t let her disability get her down. When life takes an unexpected turn will she be able to hold it together?I absolutely loved Jaz and Saffy’s story. They are so great together. They made me laugh, cry, and feel just about every emotion in between. There was some unexpected twists and turns along the way and I can’t wait to see how they all play out in the final book! But No worries, the ending isn’t really a cliffy; it just leads on into book 4 like book 2 did!! I loved Jared and Rachel’s characters in Take my Hand so I was thrilled to see that the author gave them their own story. Boy oh Boy was it a story to tell. I loved how Saffy’s being in a wheelchair didn’t stop Jaz from loving her. He accepted her for whom and what she was. To him, she is absolutely everything he wants and everything he needs. I look forward to reading more about them in the next installment of the Take My Hand Series, Never Let Go!I highly recommend this series; it just keeps getting better and better!!
