Romance and so most more!
By Stefany
A Modern Love Story blew me away. we examination it final night and this morning and fell in adore with a characters... good not all of them. For a tiny bit we was flattering indignant during a lead male, Luc. The story follows a characters from a time they are 12 that leaves a conflicting viewpoint than other amour books we have read.
Now, a story line with Payten was totally surprising. Jolyn has utterly a imagination to come adult with a twists and turns and officious evilness that Payten posseses. It combined a turn of play that we don't always find in amour novels. we went from wanting to punch Luc for his function to feeling contemptible for him. How does that happen?!? All along, we felt a enterprise to reason bad Robbie who keeps removing a brief finish of a stick. The further of Conrad and Lizbeth done for a fun discourse and we could roughly feel a emotions of these characters stranded in a center of their friends' problems.
What am we saying? Read it! You have to examination it to entirely know what we am articulate about. It is super fantastic! This is most some-more than a amour novel... romance, intrigue, suspense, treachery... we will find it. One warning.... it has some anathema given Luc starts off a foul-mouth slime (my difference haha!). we adore this author's other works too so be certain to check those out as well: Amber Eyes (Entwined Souls Trilogy) that is a YA paranormal amour and Connected (Twists of Fate) that is an adult paranormal romance... both are excellent!

Mrs. Palliata does it again!! Wonderful story!!
By Trisha
I was absolved to be asked to be a beta reader for this book, so conclude we for giving me a opportunity!
I desired Robbie from a commencement & felt contemptible for her. Luc -- It took me a tiny longer to even like him, yet as a story went on, we could know where his opinion was entrance from, and gradually began fondness him, too. we did not like Payten from a get-go.
This was a new turn on a adore triangle. Robbie's been in adore with Luc given she was a teenager... Luc feels a same about her yet takes him a tiny longer to locate adult to what he's feeling. When they FINALLY tell any other how they feel, along comes Payten. She is one of those people that will do whatever it takes to get something out of their reach. Even Luc done it ideally transparent MANY times that he was not meddlesome in her one bit, she went to good lengths to do all (& we do meant EVERYTHING!) to get her nails into him.
Even though, we didn't like Payten, during all, ever... we still couldn't stop reading compartment we found out if Robbie and Luc were going to find their HEA.
The usually reason we gave it 4 stars is given of Luc's mouth... we wanted to rinse it out with soap many times! Lol :)
This is a good story & we won't be disappointed.

Biting my nails adult to a really end...

My Thoughts:
Simply...I LOVED THIS BOOK. Jolyn did such a pleasing pursuit transforming Robbie and Luc's attribute by their tween, teen, and adult years. The transitions were elementary and well-spoken and a reader was means to clearly know and conclude a abyss of their emotions and a strength of their attribute as it grown over time.
I will not go into a sum of a story given we wish destiny readers to be agreeably surprised...and we will be. Robbie and Luc are such engaging and formidable characters, as is their relationship. Their attribute was really suggestive of those of a H/h in Fifty Shades of Grey and Beautiful Disaster. Make no mistake, this is not a duplicate and pulp deal. Ms. Palliata did not only send a judgment of their damaged relations to her characters. No, what she did was distant some-more engaging and unique...with a twist. Boy, with a twist.
I found a primary characters were intensely likable. we bit my nails for them adult to a really finish yet was rooting for them a whole time. The desperately need a HEA. The delegate characters upheld a story really well. The villianess was truly sinister and detestable. we positively hated her. She was really good written.
Excellent...excellent story!
