Review: Revelry

Revelry by Kandi Steiner
My rating: 5 of 5 stars



God! I'm in a Revelry coma right now.

“I’ve never met anyone who takes responsibility for their own happiness the way you do. You inspire me. I want to be better. Hell, I want to live—not just exist—because of you.”

I'm really glad I had the chance to read this book and I'm so surprised to see that there are people who DNF it.

Meh


Unless you went through a divorce or had someone special go through it, you'll never imagine how world shattering, heart breaking and painful it can be. It's never about who walked away first or who stood to fight, it's about the damage your soul will always suffer both ways. It's about even when given a second chance at love you'll never be the same again.

Five months post her divorce, Wren decided to rent a cabin outside Seatle for three months to mourn her lost life, find who she became and try to use her abandoned sketchbook to create designs she no longer was able to create.

When she met the mysterious Anderson Black, she couldn't decide if the man was a gentleman or an asshole but something dangerous drew her to him, something she wasn't ready for but wanted so much.

“I need you.” His voice was low, the bass of it connected to the blood pulsing through my veins. Those three words unraveled any uncertainty I had. I couldn’t be certain that I wasn’t setting myself up for heartache, or that I wasn’t doing the same to him, but in that moment, it didn’t matter. He needed me. I didn’t know why—didn’t need to know why—because the truth was I needed him, too. And more than that, I wanted him, so badly it physically pained me”.



Living for almost seven years like a ghost, the new blondy shouldn't have bothered Anderson. They always come and go and they are always beautiful, but this new comer was totally different. As soon as their eyes met, Anderson knew that behind the make up and the bright smile there was pain, hurt and hidden secrets.

“One car caught my eye. One moment, one look, and the haze I’d walked in for years blew out in a breath. Because every day was the same. And then I saw her.”

Revelry is about your second chance at love. It may be a work of fiction, but it's strong enough to teach you never to lose hope or think it's too soon or too late.

“If she really was a drug, addiction wasn’t just a possibility—it was a certainty.”
