Marcos looks at Sara and says, “This would have been a great marriage proposal moment with all these free fireworks in the background. From page one, you can tell that there’s an intensity about the book that sets it apart from the rest; a heaviness that gives this love story such WEIGHT. I feel like it's best to go into this book not knowing a whole lot, as I'd say it is for most of Colleen Hoover books. If you've been thinking of reading this book then I highly recommend you RUN DON'T WALK and start this book now! i feel as though this story is special because it allows you to see that not everyone is perfect, and you have to learn to accept them as they are, even if they are flawed because of love.

With an almost immediate connection too intense for them to continue denying, Beyah and Samson agree to stay in the shallow end of a summer fling. In Colleen Hoover Heart Bones we meet Beyah who after unexpected death goes to live her estranged father and falls in love Samson the boy next door.After a hungry childhood spent fending for herself for basic necessities, Beyah doesn’t want any messy emotional ties, but she soon forms a tight bond with her new stepsister, Sara, and falls for the wealthy but haunted next-door neighbor, Shawn Samson. But two months before she's finally free to change her life for the better, an unexpected death leaves her homeless and forced to spend the remainder of her summer in Texas with a father she barely knows.

So, when her mother dies of an overdose and she's forced to move into a beach house on the coast in Texas with her estranged father and his new family, she's thrown into a whole new life - one where she can spend her days on the beach, not worrying about where her next meal will come from. There’s something about the saltiness of the air that feels forgiving as it mixes with the stale Kentucky air still clinging to the walls of my lungs. Moving, passionate, and unforgettable, Colleen Hoover’s novel follows two young adults from completely different backgrounds embarking on a tentative romance, unaware of what the future holds.Heart Bones is essentially a beach read, Colleen Hoover style, which means it’s heartbreaking and intense. But when Hurricane Ike hit, Rake refused to take shelter and went back to the boat after leaving 13-year-old Samson at a church for safety. I always say that Colleen is the best story-teller and the story that unfolds in Heart Bones is no different from my original statement. It is the story of a boy and girl who face extreme financial and familial deprivations from childhood and had to do things not-right to make themselves survive. With only two short months separating her from the future she's built and the past she desperately wants to leave behind, an unexpected death leaves Beyah with no place to go during the interim.

I enjoy the fact that Colleen's books (most of them anyway) are written from 2 different points of views which wasn't the case in this book, but I actually didn't mind that in this book. in this story we follow this young girl named Beyah, who lives in a trailer park with an addict for a Mother. But as the summer progresses, and she lets her guard down little by little, Beyah realizes that there’s so much about Samson she doesn’t know. I was wondering what kind of secrets Samson could be holding onto and was close to getting frustrated because so many times in books we see people keeping secrets and there is this back and forth with one character trying to keep secrets and the other trying to find them. you did it again :') I kept hearing how underrated this book was and I didn't understand that until this very moment.The novel starts off with a murder, and with seven people trapped on an isolated Greek island lashed by a "wild, unpredictable Greek wind. A thoughtful exploration of how poverty impacts people's choices and blurs the lines between good and bad behavior. According to How Long to Read , it will take the average reader approximately 4 hours and 16 minutes to read Heart Bones . I adored her step-sister Sara in this book, and Samson was frustrating at first but he also grew on me as the book progressed.

Trust was another issue for Beyah but again after realising her stepsister Sarah was genuine that too comes as a relief for many reasons.They both have a lot of secrets, but Beyah can't help but to want to tell all her secrets to Samson and that is very unlike her. It felt so good reading and getting hurt by CoHo all over again like when I read Hopeless and Ugly Love. i am so glad that beyah moved on with her life and didn’t let samson stop her from continuing on with her life like how she previously wanted.
