Purity: A Friends-to-Lovers College Romance

Product Information

Like it is somewhat okay, that he sleeps around - because there was no hope to be with h (h told him so herself) and he wants to forget- BUT why did he do it so open? why did he bring countless OWs around his big love h? Make out with them in front of her? Later in the book he says to h about all the OWs around her "but you never acted jealous" .. But when I tell Cole my request, his reaction is not what I expect. He’s furious and over-the-top protective. He won’t touch me, but apparently no one else can either. It doesn’t make any sense. But when I tell Cole my request, his reaction is not what I expect. He’s furious and over-the-top protective. He won’t touch me, but apparently no one else can either? It doesn’t make any sense. All we saw was a lot of already existing, unexplainable feelings for each other (they were legitimately already in love with one another when the book started). So there wasn't anywhere to go.

Purity: A Friends-to-Lovers College Romance eBook : Mason

I can deal with it not being super spicy as long as the story is good. Unfortunately... these two protagonists like the sound of their own voices more than I did.Heroine is a doormat that says she isn’t but in the end is and the hero is a jerk, he says he is overprotective but he actually just wants her in a little cage all for himself, they even say that point a bunch of times in the book to him and many times by the heroine but it just vanishes by the end? As always, her characters are real. Their problems are real. They live like normal people. So it’s so easy to fall in love with her writing. Okay, that makes this book sound like a tough hang, and it's not at all. My loves, Purity is so much fun!! It's full of some of my favorite tropes: My only real complaint is the story pacing feels a little off and the ending is definitely rushed. The giveaway epilogue really needs to be part of the storyline to pull it all together.

Purity (Purity, book 1) by Skyler Mason - Fantastic Fiction

Normally, I’m not an ARC reader, but received this one through a FB giveaway. And was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked it, particularly since I avoid anything NA like the plague. I'm not Christian nor religious and I think the whole purity thing is horrid. The way her dad cried and said she was not a 'little girl' anymore - I wanted to vomitWhen she asks him to be the one that takes her virginity, he is about to say no...so she basically starts begging him and then finally asks him to think about it for longer. Not only that, but after he agrees to kissing her and they make out...she goes home all excited and he immediately finds OW to hook up with. Just so pathetic of her honestly. The characters are well-developed and their journey to recovery is portrayed in a sensitive way. The book ends on a hopeful note that feels realistic. After Livvy and Cole have sex he says some of the worst shit and when they talk about it a few days later his dumb ass blames his parent's marriage and thinks he could never be her for his stupid actions and for sleeping around and bringing girls around her. Give me a break.
