So, yes, I was hooked from the beginning. Action, conflicted and convoluted feelings, self-loathing, despair, a tortured (And I mean the best kind of tortured) hero, and a non-stop plot, I couldn't breathe. Risking their lives to save one another, sacrificing all they had, doing all they could to keep the other alive-Come on, that's a prime fucking story, guys. From the moment we met them in book one, they only had eyes for one another.but they sure as hell wouldn't admit it. Book two, while so strong, didn't touch book one-Gisbourne was a bastard who meddled heavily in their relationship, and we didn't get as much one on one Rob and Scar time. I don't think there could be much that would have knocked this series down a peg. Actually, the most candid thing I could tell you is that once I finished book one, I was biased beyond compare. "He's not doing well," I said.īook one was the one that got me, if I'm being honest.
"He.he would greatly benefit from hearing you're alive," he told me. "When did you last-when did you see him?" "Have you." I drew a breath, trying to find the words. From their first tortured story to the final heart-wrenching finale, these two have not had it easy. Something has to really claw into me for those spots to be given away, but my darling Rob and Scar have earned it. What I'm trying to say is that this is now my fourth favorite series of all time. And that, to me, speaks louder than any words could. My point in all this? Nothing has touched my top three favorite series of all time.except this one. We meet couple after couple, star-crossed lover after star-crossed lover, see perilous scenarios and heart-breaking stories time and again, and yet those three stories can't be touched with a ten foot pole.
It probably even gets to the point where people are like, yeah, dude, we get it, stop! But I think it speaks volumes when we can say that no other story touches us after 3 years even after reading, what, 100-120 books a year. They have remained the same three since 2012/2013 and not much has touched them. I speak repeatedly of my all time favorite series. "As long as you love me, I'll be here, hidden somewhere in your heart." "I'll never leave you," he told me, and I felt his arms on me.
