Wet (Love in Lone Star #1) by Ashley Bostock – Review by Jenni Bishop
Wet by Ashley Bostock
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Wet is the first book in the Love in Lone Star series written by Ashley Bostock. This is a compelling read that will see you with a smile on your face and laughing at times when you least expect it. It will have you feeling for the main character Miranda and find you wanting to slap some sense into people for their actions. I love stories that are written in the characters point of view, I find it adds depth and feeling to the characters and this one doesn’t disappoint.
Miranda Phillips is a lonely young woman who has a shitty past, a past she is trying hard to put behind her. She knows she was stupid and did some things she would rather not think about but living in a small town where people are not willing to forgive and forget makes it hard to move on. People with prejudice will always bring you down. Will Miranda ever be able to prove she is more than her past? Will people finally let go of the past? Will she lose out on love just because of those prejudices?
Ryan John is finally finding his way in the small town in which he lives. He knows what people can be like and is not willing to do anything that will put his standing in jeopardy, nothing that will cause his family any harm. But could he be making the biggest mistake of his life? Could he be letting his one chance at happiness, real happiness pass him by? Is he really as judgemental as those around him? Will it take someone close to him to point out that you should practice what you preach? Will he be able to see the other side of the story before it is too late? Is he really about to lose it all just because people are unwilling to see what is before their eyes? Will he finally see those for what they really are? Will he expose those who are hell bent on destroying all he has?
This story is all about second chances. It is a story of letting go of the past and stepping into the future.
