Warrior {a review}

I don't know if you've noticed or not, but this week I have been reviewing books within the Salvation Society series. I have been loving every single minute of it.

Today I am bringing you my review of Warrior by A.M. Brooks. If friends to lovers is your go to trope, go grab this book. How about enemies to lovers? Second chance romance? Romantic suspense? Go grab Warrior! It has all of that! 

Warrior begins by taking us back in time to when Colt was a child. We see his family, we meet one of his friends, and eventually we meet Lyric. Lyric just moved in across the street. Colt's world eventually gets just decimated. I can't think of another way to describe it. Two people that he loves have been taken away from him, and the third person has changed as well and not for the better. Lyric is there beside him through it all. That is until they go off to college. They had a plan. But plans change, hearts break, and relationships end. Flash forward 8 years, and they meet again. 

I feel like I've said a bit too much in that little recap, but hopefully not.

There are no words that can fully explain my love of this book! I was all in, and felt all the emotions. Lyric and Colt are just meant to be together. From their relationship in high school, to planning for their future at college, it was them taking the next step toward forever. When Colt changed all that, my heart sank. I was heart broken for both of them. There is so much I want to say, but can't because I don't want to ruin the story!  The journey back to each other was rocky, but you could feel the love between them. Add in the suspense aspect, and egads. WHAT A RIDE!  Now for me, I do wish that part of the story had been a bit longer, a bit more played out, but still, I loved it. 

If you're a romance reader and you have not read a book from the Salvation Society, I highly suggest you do. This 8th edition that has been releasing this week would be a fantastic place to start. Your emotions will go for quite a rollercoaster ride.

Thank you for reading my thoughts,

Lyric

I fell in love with him when we were kids.

He promised me forever when we were teenagers.

Months later he leaves me without a care in the world.

One week during senior year was all it took for Colt Street to decide I was no longer what he wanted.

Then, just like his brother, Colt took off for the military, leaving the life we longed for, behind.

Eight years later he’s back, and now everything has changed.

We’re both not who we once were... and I don’t know if we ever will be.

Colt

Running into Lyric Taylor again brought back the reality of the situation I put us in all those years ago.

I left when my world came crashing down.

Instead of letting her know what was going on, I chose to run, and leave her behind.

This time I won’t make the same mistake.

She’s guarded.

I’m broken.

Now danger is waiting to tear us apart, and I’m ready to put my life on the line.

Whether she accepts it or not, I will always be her warrior.
