I was contacted last week by new author Genna Rulon about reading her debut book Only For You. I am SO GLAD I decided to pick it up and read it! It’s funny how sometimes reading an email can lead to a couple sleepless nights! I was in the mood for a witty New Adult book and this one fit the bill! I also love books that have mysteries written into them which this one has.
The blurb is:
All Everleigh Carsen wanted to do was complete her final semester at Hensley University and begin the life she carefully planned.
When a wave of violent crime seizes campus, Everleigh is persuaded to attend a school sponsored self-defence seminar by her best friend, where she meets volunteer instructor, Hunter Charles. After Everleigh’s biting sarcasm induces Hunter to eject her from class, a tempestuous relationship is born.
Everleigh is determined to forget the striking man, but fate—that fickle shrew—continuously intervenes. Unable to escape him, she declares Hunter an enemy combatant. The only complication…Hunter is resolutely pursuing vindication…by any means necessary. Verbal warfare ensues, and despite Everleigh’s ingenious efforts, in Hunter, she has finally found her equal.
Only For You is a compelling tale of friendship, desire, and redemption—brimming with intelligent characters, witty dialogue, unexpected twists, profound sorrow, unfettered hope, and love’s unassailable perseverance.
I was completely addicted to this book over the 2 days it took me to read it! I haven’t stayed up so late 2 nights in a row to read a book in a while! I thought this book was completely unique and dealt with some very serious issues. I loved how the book progressed and I couldn’t put it down (well, I did have to once because work got in the way, but you know what I mean).
I am rating this book 5 stars because I loved it and because it has all the elements of an amazing New Adult book including swoon worthy male lead character mixed in with secrets and mystery.
I am super excited for the next book in the series which is due out in December 2013, so not long to go! It will focus on another couple that also featured heavily in this book.
