The guy who was headed to glory until suddenly he disappeared to a West Texas juvenile detention center. Once cocky and flirtatious, he’s now silent and angry. When their evacuation route is gridlocked, River is the first to recognize the danger they’re in. Together he and Jillian set out to seek shelter in their abandoned high school. As they wait out the storm, they confront the past and realize survival is about more than just staying alive it’s about fighting for yourself.”
Oh how I wanted to love Hurricane Kiss. I don’t know what it was about this book but I was really drawn to it (despite the embarrassing cover). I figured this would be a quick, fun read with some good secrets and romance. It was quick but that was about all I got right about this one.
Pros:
Cons:
Overall, Hurricane Kiss is not something I’d recommend reading. I could go on and on about this book but I’m going to stop here. I’m just really happy it was a quick read and I didn’t waste too much time with this one.
