The Mighty Storm by Samantha Towle

5.0

I normally don't give out a 5 star rating until I've read a book more than once since I seem to have a bottomless TBR pile and if a book can get me away from that to read it again it has earned that 5 stars...that being said, I already know I'll be reading this again soon so why bother with the delay? I pretty much loathe love triangles and usually completely turned off by cheating plots...Samantha Towle made me love this book despite all that. It was a roller coaster of emotions and I had to take a few breaks but I read it all in one sitting. By the end my eyes were gritty and burning but it was worth it. I loved Jake and I loved Jake with Tru even more. Jake is a mess but watching him try to pull it together for Tru gave me the warm fuzzies. I normally don't do the whole "if you love this book you should read that book" thing but I'm a huge fan of Beautiful Disaster and although the plot is completely different the "love" is quite similar. Slightly obsessive/destructive/co-dependent and needy. I'm not convinced that in the real world it's healthy to need or be needed that much but for a story it is AMAZING! Saw a blurb there will be another book...not sure if it's going to be more Jake and Tru or another TMS member but either way I'll be snapping it up.
