Summary:

“I’m Wang Xi. I don’t think we’ve met.” Oh. Zhou Shen wants to come off as confident, suave; I know who you are. William told me all about you. “Hi,” he says instead. “I’m Charlie. Zhou Shen.” The wolf alpha kisses the back of his hand, a concentration of extraordinary intensity, lips dry and warm— and Zhou Shen is suddenly back to being clean, back to being a small item to be picked up and covered and loved. Loved! The thought makes him sick.

Wang Xi meets Zhou Shen at Zhou Shen’s engagement party. Things are, more or less, as they seem.

Golden Boys, small towns, and earth-shattering secrets. What more could you ask for?

Chasing Spring by R.S. Grey Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Official synopsis:

I thought I’d left Blackwater, Texas behind for good. I didn’t belong in the small town, but my dad wouldn’t listen. He dragged me back home in his beat-up truck and dropped a bomb along the way: Chase Matthews was moving in with us. He was the golden boy of my high school, my former best friend, and the last person I wanted sleeping across the hall. His presence was too great a reminder of the ghosts I was trying to forget. I didn’t ask for a hero. I don’t want to be saved.  To me, Lilah Calloway meant late nights sneakin’ out, moonlit hair, and sparklers in July. She was my best friend until the day she left and I’d assumed Blackwater had seen the last of her. Then, like a tempest, she rolled back into town for the final half of senior year. The chopped hair and dark devil-may-care attitude warned most people away, but I knew if I fought hard enough, I could find the lost girl. I didn’t want to be her hero. Some girls don’t need to be saved

My thoughts: RS Grey is fast becoming one of my must buy authors. I loved taking a break from her usual new adult romance, for a darker ya story.

This book is heart breaking. It deals with a lot of issues that we don’t normally see in a contemporary YA read. It deals with loss, drug addiction, murder, and coming to terms with ones past. The story of Lilah and Chase is so entwined with the story of their mothers. It makes for a rich and emotional read.

The story is told in dual perspective in the past and present. We get glimpses into the lives of both Lilah and Chase’s mothers. How they meet, and ultimately end up having children that are best friends as well. While the stories of the past unfold, you hear from the present. In the voices of Lilah and Chase. Whereas I usually don’t like a ton of perspective changes. The way it was done made sense for the story. It gives just enough glimpses into the past to not overwhelm the story going on in the present.

The overall tone of this book is darker than her usual books. It gives way for a larger conversation about mental health, addiction, and how it effects those around you. Lilah is such a complex character. She is haunted by her mother at every step, yet tries to cling onto her as much as she can. It’s so heartbreaking to see her struggle with and come to terms with her mother’s actions. How she seeks to know why her mother sought after the next high.

Chase is the light to Lilah’s dark. Much like his mother was. Always there to “save the day.” All while dealing with his own demons. Coming to terms with his own past and present. How Lilah’s mother effected his life, and now has to deal with a parent of addiction in the present.

Overall I loved this book. I read it, beginning to end, in one sitting. I got so sucked into the lives of this book. The ups and downs, and the raw emotionality of it. I really hope to see more books like this from RS Grey. I’m so glad she surprised me with the depth of this book.

Think about it. Does the ending even matter? Shouldn’t the middle be the happy part? It’s the biggest chunk of our life, and yet no one ever asks if two people had a happy middle. They care too much about the ending. Goodreads Synopsis: I thought I’d left Blackwater, Texas behind for good. I didn’t belong in the small town, but my dad wouldn’t listen.
