Always red

Isabelle Ronin

Book - 2017

"Red," Caleb whispered. "Do you know how I felt when you left me?" I looked into his eyes. The emotion I saw in them, the intensity, and the tenderness filled up my throat. "I felt ruined. Because, Red, every time you break me apart, you put me back together. And I always come out better than before." "So," he cupped my face, stroking my cheek with his thumb. "Ruin me."

Review by Booklist Review

Ronin's sequel to Chasing Red (2017) picks up with Veronica breaking up with Celeb because she is certain that he spent the night with Beatrice-Rose. But Veronica soon realizes that she can't live without Celeb. He brings her love and security, emotions she has never felt before because of her abusive father. As they rekindle their love, both find themselves wanting to be together forever. But Beatrice-Rose is determined to end Celeb and Veronica's relationship. Her schemes not only test their love but ultimately put them in life-threatening danger. Ronin's suspenseful romance dramatizes the struggle to overcome trust issues regardless of the risks involved. The second installment in the Chasing Red series is as steamy and addicting as the first.--Flores, Stephanie Copyright 2017 Booklist

Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Ronin's heady romance is a fulfilling sequel to her debut novel, Chasing Red. Veronica Strafford sets out to reclaim the love of her life, Caleb Lockhart, whom she left brokenhearted after his supposed friends lied to her and claimed that he couldn't be trusted. Once they reconcile, their relationship is stronger than ever. Readers will appreciate the usually skeptical Veronica's newfound strength and self-esteem. Caleb is as loveable and dedicated as ever, though his cruel former friends-still intent on ruining his life and relationship-will push him to his limits with their lies and attempted manipulation of both him and Veronica. With the backing of spirited, loyal friends, Caleb and Veronica defy the ex-friends' nastiness together, strengthening their connection. Ronin is adept at characterization; the lovers, both of whom are in their early 20s, grow more mature but are still youthful. A satisfying balance between moments of tension and moments of calm, along with a hint of mystery, a bit of action, and a couple of subplots-which are nice setups for sequels-will win Ronin many dedicated readers.
