Review Reaction by Jessica Roberts

Reaction: Reflection #2
By Jessica Roberts
Release Date: November 6, 2012

Book Description:
Harmony…

I've previously had that in my life, but only once, briefly, a while ago. It was during the time I’d started my first year of college. My own apartment, a new old car, and a life free of deadbeat stepfathers, all of which was fulfilling enough. But if it wasn't, I also had a best friend, soul mate, and boyfriend all in one. Yes, life was near perfect.

But one stormy night can change everything…

For many months I rested in a prolonged sleep, fighting for my life. Well, more than fighting for it, also dreaming of it. Dreaming of him. Thank goodness, the dream is over and I’m back in the real world now. And all I want is for everything to return to the way it was. But nothing’s the same; most of all, us.

Once again, I find myself at the crossroads of a ruthless battle, this time not for life, but love. Do I fight for the guy I twice fell for, or do I let her take him away?

My reading experience:
Reaction is the second book by author Jessica Roberts, that I read.  The first one is Reflection, a book that simply knew how to keep me on full attention.  Now I had the opportunity to read the second book, although I liked the story, the experience wasn't at the same level.  I'm a big fan of Heather.  I still like her with her strong will.  I think Nick and her's is a lovely love story.  The characters evolved and that is always a great thing.The ending was a nice one.  Happiness is always good.  Don't you think?

I was completely immerse on the first book.  Heather's circumstances were a mystery.  Now the reading experience lacked something of an element that keeps me reading for endless hours.  Nevertheless, Roberts is a talented writer and this book was well written and had the key elements to make it memorable.  Her writing invites you to revisit her stories.

Rating 4 out of 5

Reflection
Summary from Goodreads:
Bright, spunky Heather Robbins has escaped her small hometown and is anxiously beginning her freshman year of college. Rising above her rocky childhood, she’s found a place where good things are finally starting to happen: her own private apartment, refreshing college classes, and an intense attachment to a mysterious and rugged classmate, Nick Richards.

But when her dreamy college life turns out to be nothing more than a wonderful dream while resting in a coma, questions threaten.

Now, Heather must press forward to unlock the real past, and find the answers buried deep in her mind. What she unlocks instead is a roller coaster ride through flashbacks, embellished memories, and a whirlwind romance.

And when it’s all over and she comes face to face with the truth, will she lose everything she’s fallen in love with?
