RAGE by Julie Anne Peters

-
I just started reading RAGE by Julie Anne Peters last night and I wasn't sure I was going to be able to get into it because it's about a good girl who wants to be in a relationship with a bad girl and that relationship is apparently going to turn abusive.  I haven't gotten to that part yet but the book is so well written that I could not put it down.  I read almost half of it in one sitting last night and I expect that I'll finish it or real close in the next sitting. 

The main character, Johanna has this obsessive crush on Reeve.  I find it interesting that such a good girl like Johanna would have such a deep crush on a very bad girl like Reeve because my own book, that I'm still editing, has Jamie the popular cheerleader who has a serious crush on bad girl P.J.  But in my book P.J. will not be abusing Jamie. 

I'm curious to see how this book is going to end because it is already clear that Reeve is incapable of loving anyone at this point.  I'm wondering how long it will take Johanna to see that and how much abuse she will put up with before she gives up on Reeve.   I'll post more as I read.  I'd love to hear anyone else's opinion of the book.

  114341264   ©   Andranik Hakobyan   |   Dreamstime.com Welcome to a new year, my friends. I am very happy to see 2023 in the rearview mirror. 2023 was a lot of things for me. I learned a lot about myself, and I'm not happy with who I have become. I have become a very unhappy and angry person. Part of that is because I feel that my life has been spiraling out of my control for a long time. Taking control meant making major changes that I have been afraid of making. But sometimes, you have to make painful changes for your mental health and happiness, and that's what I'm doing.  I dug out my Melissa Etheridge CD Your Little Secret  , and I've been listening to four of the songs from it on replay for the past few weeks. Those songs are: I Could Have Been You, Shriner's Park, Change, and  This War Is Over.  Change , in particular, speaks very strongly of where my life is right now. The lyrics that strike me the hardest are: "And so it goes, this...

The official release date for Sheltered by Love is March 5, 2020! I'm so thankful for my readers who have been patiently waiting for me to finally finish this book. It's been a bit of an up and down road in the writing process, but I'm pretty happy with this story, and I hope all you like it. The story has drama, animal rescues, and a slow-building romance. Here's the blurb that will hopefully pique your interest in the story: Suzanne Jericho let her anger get the better of her, with the result being two hundred hours of community service at the Humane Society’s animal shelter. Chrissy Stein is working at the animal shelter as a vet tech so she can help her beloved animals.  Jericho, as Suzanne prefers to be called, comes from a rough around the edges, hardworking family. Chrissy comes from an uptight political family with whom she doesn’t fit.  Although these two young women come from different backgrounds, they have a lot in common. They both love a...
