Thorn by Chloe Walsh
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I’m hooked on these characters and am eagerly churning through the pages to see what happens next!
Noah is hands-down the star of this book. His strength has always been described as it pertains to his physical features but his mental fortitude and dedication to Teagan is what makes the series work so well. Noah has definitely earned a spot on my “all time best book boyfriend” list. Totally lust worthy!
Teagan on the other hand deserves a roundhouse kick to the face. Kidding…but not really. Reunited in Ireland Noah goes waaaaay above and beyond to reconnect and repair their relationship. Obviously there needs to be some adversity to make for an interesting story but Teagan’s behavior seemed to drag at the point. Noah pours his heart out and makes it CRYSTAL FREAKING CLEAR his intentions. His friend Lucky even tells her that Noah spoke of her constantly over the past 7 years. Just when you finally come to understand that Teagan comprehends this she backtracks after he invites her to return to America with him. “Is that why you came back for me?” I whispered, stepping out of his arms, my blood turning to ice in my veins. Why you want me to go back to the states with you- out of duty?” It was at this point in the book I slapped my forehead in exasperation. Come on Teagan!!!! Open your eyes and ears! Grasp the magnitude of Noah’s commitment and move the story along! Aye aye aye! *concludes rant*
Nevertheless- loved the story. Highly recommend!
