But I Love Him by Amanda Grace
From Goodreads: Tonight was so much worse than anything before it.
Tonight he didn't stop after the first slap.
At the beginning of senior year, Ann was a smiling, straight-A student and track star with friends and a future. Then she met a haunted young man named Connor. Only she can heal his emotional scars; only he could make her feel so loved-and needed. Ann can't recall the pivotal moment it all changed, when she surrendered everything to be with him, but by graduation, her life has become a dangerous high wire act. Just one mistake could trigger Connor's rage, a senseless storm of cruel words and violence damaging everything-and everyone-in its path.
This evocative slideshow of flashbacks reveals a heartbreaking story of love gone terribly wrong.

Ever since I read anything on this book at all, I've wanted to read it. It's sounds sad, but a kind of sad that will, hopefully, turn into something better by the end. And have you seen that cover? It's so beautiful. It drives me nuts, how much I want this book, every time I look at it.
PS. I got a style blogger award! More on that tomorrow!
This book scares me.

ReplyDeleteAw, why does it scare you?
( I'M SO EXCITED! )
Sounds so heartbreaking but a topic definitely worth writing about.

ReplyDeleteThat's exactly what I think. I think it's going to be a book where you hold your breath through the whole thing.

She had a great life plan and he comes. And she is just tracked off. (Is this English? I'm not sure..I'm french.)

ReplyDeleteI get what you're saying! But it is horrible. I think it's going to be a very emotional book.
