My Rating - 5 Stars!
Damn! Ruined Hopes is another fantastic story in the Rixon High series. This LA Cotton story is one hell of a rollercoaster.
Everything between Ashleigh and Ezra is complicated, messy, and passionate. Everything between these two is intense and riveting.
There's a lot going on between these two, and with Ashleigh having amnesia, it takes the reader a while to overcover the depth of their past.
These two have a million things in their way, but rest assured, they finally get their happy ending.
Yes, Ashleigh has amnesia, which causes a slew of issues and obstacles for her. But Ezra's the one who's really the complex one. Imagine that! He's his own worst enemy, with his past always standing in his way. Saying he has baggage in an understatement. He's a broken young man who has yet to feel that he's lovable.
This is a second chance romance for Ezra and Ashleigh, with one of the best aspects being how far apart they are at the beginning. Their story starts with them being worlds apart emotionally and physically. As a reader, it seems impossible that they could ever get past their pain, cut through the distance, and even become friends again, let alone more. But, fear not, LA Cotton is a master at bringing messy relationships through the wringer, while ultimately working them towards a happy ending.
This entire LA Cotton world is messy and multi-layered, with the best characters. I continue to be in awe of the way LA brings the characters towards redemption and creates amazingly strong couples. And yes, you will get to spend time with all the original characters who we've all come to love.
Ruined Hopes is another riveting installment in the Rixon High series. If you're a fan of LA Cotton, you will love this book. Just getting to spend time with all these amazing characters is a treat. Don't miss it.
