It was also realistic how they entered their relationship.
By the end he realized she would battle anxiety every day and not always win, and she realized she shouldn’t shortchange her own efforts to get better. It was so realistic when they came to odds about her recovery progress on some level he thought she’d be cured one day, and she believed she could only get better to a certain point. I’m not sure I connected to Nick, but I liked him well enough and was pleased to see his mood improve as he fell in love with Katherine. I want to see the happily-ever-after of someone whose brain just doesn’t think rationally, a story that presents arguments for nature versus nurture.Īs someone who’s life has been hindered by moderate anxiety and recurring depression, I related to Katherine quite a bit, and I admired her determination to get back out in the world. I’ve read the PTSD story before and was disappointed when I learned of Katherine’s history. I would have loved it more if Katherine’s anxiety had simply been a matter of unbalanced brain chemistry and hadn’t been instigated by a major trauma in her past. I loved that this book dealt with mental illness, and quite accurately, in my opinion. Fascinated, Nick’s drawn to her beauty and her courage, and determines to support her as she struggles to overcome her disorder and rediscovers what it is to live-and love. But Katherine Wilson can’t stand to have him think of her as a junkie and finds motivation in convincing him she’d had a panic attack, not been high on drugs. He takes her home, makes sure she’s all right, and figures he’ll never see her again.
Nick Moreno is beyond annoyed when a woman passes out in his club.
I would like to thank Sidney Halston, Loveswept, and Penguin Random House for allowing me to read this novel in exchange for an honest review. Realistic and unpredictable if a bit dramatic
