Would you rather know a truth that makes you feel hopeless, or keep believing the lies?
Colleen Hoover returns with the spellbinding story of two young people with devastating pasts who embark on a passionate, intriguing journey to discover the lessons of life, love, trust - and above all, the healing power that only truth can bring.
Sky, a senior in high school, meets Dean Holder, a guy with a promiscuous reputation that rivals her own. From their very first encounter, he terrifies and captivates her. Something about him sparks memories of her deeply troubled past, a time she's tried so hard to bury. Though Sky is determined to stay far away from him, his unwavering pursuit and enigmatic smile break down her defences and the intensity of their relationship grows. But the mysterious Holder has been keeping secrets of his own, and once they are revealed, Sky is changed forever and her ability to trust may be a casualty of the truth.
Only by courageously facing the stark revelations can Sky and Holder hope to heal their emotional scars and find a way to live and love without boundaries. Hopeless is a novel that will leave you breathless, entranced, and remembering your own first love.
Praise for Colleen Hoover:
'As brilliant and entertaining as Slammed, Point of Retreatis absolute poetry.' - JAMIE MCGUIRE, New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Disaster
'I finished reading Slammed at 1am on Sunday... I couldn't wait to start reading Point of Retreatso I bought it right then and there!' - Amazon Review
This! This, is what Hoover does. She tricks you into thinking the story is about one thing and then BAM! The plot twist just comes out of nowhere. Sky is 17 and embarking on a HUGE life change. She will go from being home-schooled to attending public high school for her senior year. Her first day of school did not go exactly as planned, but then after school, she meets him -- Holder, and their paths cross again, and again. Their romance is tedious at times due to Holder's mood swings, but the real story is what is behind the mood swings. Holder, I just want to hold him. He is so complicated, and deep, and brooding, and passionate. I cannot wait to read his story. I must know more about this boy. And, Sky - so strong and honest and angsty. I loved getting to know her and actually admired her attitude and choices. Another great Colleen Hoover read.
