Jude has spent her life believing happiness is something that’s earned through resilience, sacrifice, and staying quiet when things are rough. She’s learned how to survive unsafe homes, and when love turns cruel, asking for too much turns dangerous. She’s living a life bracing for the next blow.
When Jude meets Patrick in the form of a one-night stand, the connection is immediate and terrifying. Patrick doesn’t ask Jude to prove her worth, he shows up again and again, offering a kind of love Jude had never known.
But the past doesn’t loosen its grip just because something good walks in, and Jude knows that healing isn’t linear. Mr. Brightside is a romantic and emotional story about resilience, chosen family, and learning love shouldn’t hurt. It’s about finding light after darkness when you are brave enough to step out of the shadows.
Another excellent book by the artful author, Kristy Lee! This will be the second romance novel that I've ever read, and they are both written by her. I definitely recommend if you've ever gone through tough times in relationships. I think that this author has a special knack for reading and crafting her characters for the perfect story. Not only does this make her a great author, but I also expect that she is a wonderful person herself.
