Use Somebody

2015 | Contemporary | Romance

For straitlaced Scarlett Rossi, college was supposed to be all about finding herself. But when a whirlwind romance goes tragically wrong, what she finds is much darker than expected. Reeling from the fallout, she returns home, lost, alone, and scarred. Determined to rebuild what was stolen that night, she embraces the fighter within.

With a heart of gold and a smile like the sun, Vance Holloway can light up any room. So when his charms are rejected by the new girl at work, his curiosity is piqued. Vance sees right through Scarlett’s stubborn walls. And he’ll stop at nothing to break them. Over ice cream, music, and a handful of moments, he slowly earns her trust. Finally Scarlett’s found somebody safe… that is, until he falls in love.

So begins an explosive tryst of push and pull between one broken girl and one irresistible boy. Scarlett won’t survive another heartbreak. Can their friendship survive a compromise?

Vance may be set on healing her heart, but he has no idea what he’s up against. As her walls continue to crumble, grief looms and triggers resurface. Until both are faced with the heart-stopping truth: what really happened the night she swore she’d never love another man, and whose hands are stained with his blood?

Join Vance and Scarlett on this powerful journey of romance, mystery, and redemption.

This book will take you on an emotional story rollercoaster as you learn why Scarlett changed from having blonde hair and being happy to everyone into Scar, a black-haired sullen and sarcastic emo girl. Not only that but you also see how friendships change over the years and how some just aren't meant to last past a certain time.

It was wonderful to read something that was a slow-burner, where they took the time to get to know each other and indeed, the idea of taking that any further shook one of them up so much that it became a detailed part of the story.

There is a twist to this story that I never saw coming and I LOVED IT! I won't say any more than that because I don't want to spoil it for anyone else but it certainly gave the whole story a new spin which is incredibly hard to do at such a late stage in the book.

A raw and poignant story about life, love and friendships. Definitely recommended!
