RETURN (Rewind Book 2) by Rowan Shaw – Review by Lisa Helmick

Return by Rowan Shaw
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

While i ended up loving this book at first I really was feeling very little to no connection to either character while I was reading. Raphaël was living in his own world with little to no interaction with Adrien. Adrien was so closed off and gave minimal information about himself. Little bits and pieces were fed to us along the way but once Adrien opened up to Raphaël all things changed. I was *FLOORED* over what came out of his mouth. When he freaked out on Raphaël with his verbal diarrhea…the pieces finally made sense. The friendship started from there with undercurrents of something else. From that point on i was easily hooked on these two characters.

This is the second book in this series and by this author for me. I liked getting to know Raphaël more and meeting Adrien. Adrien’s life..I can’t even imagine… but i think he is happy with it to an extent. There are some things missing from his life and once Raphaël shows up things start to change inside him.

All of the secondary characters were good. They fit in perfectly with the story and held their places. I loved seeing Raphaël’s parents again. They are truly wondrous!

My only issue with the book was I did have a few moments when I had to google to figure out what a few items and terms were. So maybe the author could have included an explanation when it was first mentioned to help any confusion to any reader.

I see Parker’s story is next! I can’t imagine what is in store for him!
