BETH Tommy and I grew up together in a foster home that nearly killed us both. We loved each other with our whole hearts until the world tore us apart. And now I'm in the back seat of his car, and he won't tell me where he's taking me. As the days pass, one thing is clear: the attraction between us is as powerful as ever. His kisses are still sweet. His touch is irresistible. But I don't know if the boy I loved is going to save me or ruin me. TOMMY One last job and my debt to the dangerous man who holds my life in his hands will be paid, my slate wiped clean. To save my life, I have to kidnap Beth, the only woman I ever loved, and deliver her to the one person who wants to destroy her. She's just as sweet and beautiful as I remember, and resisting her is impossible. But falling for her again could get us both killed. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Like the prequel novella ( The Debt ), Lost Without You draws you right in to the world of (now-seven-years-older) Tommy and Beth from the very beginning, not letting you go until the very last page--where the before-mentioned OMG moment ensures that the "letting go" involves some kicking and screaming on the part of the reader. (Wait, what? What do you mean, I have to wait to find out what happens???) Also like her Everything I Left Behind series, this one is pretty dark in tone and brings on the angst--these young adults seem to have been living the life every parent hopes their children never will. (Well, except for maybe Beth's mother--what is up with her? Hopefully we'll find out in the next book, because that whole situation seems worth another OMG or two. Or possibly a dozen.)
Life has been better since they left St. Jude's--sort of. However, Tommy's mostly alone, except for Simon, who is gone more than he's around, and Pest, Tommy's squirrel/dog. Beth is...well, I'm not going to give it away ahead of time, but Beth's pretty much alone too, even though she spends her days literally surrounded by people. She's still having trouble sleeping, so much so that her daily life involves a pretty scary cocktail of possibly not-quite-legal drugs from morning to night. Neither of them has managed to get over each other, and neither has been able to truly put the events at St. Jude's in the past--Tommy even more so than Beth, since he has the complication of the "debt."
The debt comes due early on, and it brings Beth and Tommy back together, though from the start you know it's not going to be a sunshine and roses kind of reunion. But GAH, these two are so good together...and then she leaves us hanging. Hopefully I can find something to do to keep me occupied until June 26 and not obsessing over what's happening with Tommy and Beth...
Darn you, M. O'Keefe! ;)
