Rainbow Reader Purple: Destructive Love
Rainbow Reader Purple:
“Destructive Love”
This book includes content from the original, now super-secret manuscript, “Moments in Time: It is never too late to come out,” and has been modified, embellished and enhanced based on reader interest in the characters from the original series.
There is really only one moment in time we can cherish, that we remember through all of the good and bad times in our lives. If you can take that one moment of time and cherish it forever, it can bring joy where there is sorrow; happiness and hope where there is despair. This is a secret that we hold true to ourselves, to our hearts.
Sometimes you remember the first kiss, the first time you fell off your bike, and the person who was there to pick you up, or when you fell out of the tree, you remember who carried you bleeding to the hospital, or cleaned up your wounds and gave you encouragement and inspiration to go on.
But it is this secret you hold true deep down inside that you can sometimes forget. When all else fails, it was the one true thing that you were supposed to hold onto, it molds you into who you are, and who you will be. It helps you evaluate who you were, where you were, and gives you focus on who you want to become, and where you want to go.
“Purple: Destructive Love” is the sixth of the Rainbow Reader series that reveals the sexual discovery, encounters and developing adventures that define the main character as he interacts with characters the readers wanted to know more about from the original Moments in Time series.
Fiction is a lie, but there is truth behind every lie.
Georgie’s 30 year journey spans the entire Rainbow Reader series and can be read in any order. However, for readers interested in following the timeline in complete continuity, the proper reading order for the series begins with the unpublished, “Pink: The Secret Manuscript,” and continues directly into “Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue and Purple.”
The timeline continues quite chronologically into the three “Moments in Time” novels.
Following the three “Moments in Time” novels, the story and timeline then continues to spin off different characters’ timelines in order to give the reader an all-encompassing, comprehensive and truly relative reading experience about the characters’ lives as they all develop individually.
The Rainbow Reader series begins again after the three novels with “White: Educating Hayden,” “Gray: Surrender,” “Black: Secrets,” and will continue into “Brown: Reconnect,” and the final Rainbow Reader of the year, “Silver & Gold: True Loves Kiss.”
There’s no better fiction than the truth.
Enjoy the sixth in the Rainbow Reader series, “Purple: Destructive Love.”

I love this series. Georgie has become so real to me. I’m wondering how much of this just might be autobiographical.....it just seems so realistic.

At this point this far into the series... I thought I would have warmed up to Georgie and all his adventures.
But... I have not.
The writing style from the very first book until now is still not working for me.
Georgie is a grown man trapped in a little kids mind set. He acts and sounds like a teenager. The decisions he makes are not great. Affecting how he lives.
Now that he's getting older the boys he comes across are barely legal now. And in the beginning of the series while George was younger the men that he crossed were the same age or older.
Now...He seems to be with teenagers a lot.
And I'm finding that I'm not liking that.
The name for chapter 1 is very fitting for this series. Starting over again, and again. That's what this series is. A repeat of all the other books. Just different names and situations.... Basically the same storyline.
I was hoping by now we would get some growth from George's character. A really storyline. But it's just the same thing. He's looking for love, he's depressed, starting a new job, moving in with different families and friends, then taking off...
The ending of this book was a big "what" for me. All those Mission and Vision statements. Wanting to work with kids in need.
I just cant. I tried with this series.

Yet another awesome story about Georgie's life. This one was quite different than the others but just as amazing and quite emotional, especially when he realises what he needs to do to stop the way his life keeps turning into 1 big disaster !

Just when you think that Georgie’s life couldn’t be filled with any more struggle, self-destruction and just plain bad luck… along comes Rainbow Reader PURPLE to prove you wrong.
It would seem that no matter how much effort he puts into planning out what should be the perfect plan, and how hard he works to bring these plans to fruition; or how much he loves the people who come into his life; something always happens to tilt the world that he knows on its axis, throwing these plans awry, negating all those hours and days and weeks of toil, and most heartbreaking of all tearing ‘love and home’ away from him time and time again.
As Georgie fights his way through the chaos of his world, he is also waging a war against anxiety, depression and a past that seems determined to drag him under.
So, just as you think things are going to turn around the biggest failure so far strikes a vicious blow and takes down not only Georgie, but a trusted friend with a young family. In a state of utter depression and desperation, there seems to be only one viable solution to end all the pain and suffering for himself and those around him… ending it all… permanently.
The level of emotional desperation and painful longing conveyed in this volume had me clutching my heart with one hand and the box of Kleenex with the other. And although I often wished that Georgie didn’t have to experience these, I knew by the end that they formed a necessary part of his journey… and surely, the best is yet to come.
