REVIEW-

Moya Douglas got into my nerves pretty fast – argh. She was an uptight b*tch (sorry) who thought that men were spawns of Hades. She doesn’t date, go out with friends (except for Nessa), she thinks that the only reason why men asks her to date is because they want to get into her pants. She doesn’t believe in love – and had no intention of falling herself – until Branden McCarthy.

I hated her – at first, but then as the story continues, as you get to know her. Her past, her insecurities and her heartaches, you will understand as well why she acts that way. I was relieved to finally see her open up, a little, and then some more, then finally took the risk. It was very hard for her – but she did it anyway. Only that, she expected something entirely different as a response from him….

Branden who had his own baggage to carry, more than his broken heart. He wanted to be the one to destroy the walls around Moya, and hope that the connection between the two of them was strong enough for her to give what they have a chance. It was a lot of hard work on Branden’s part – it took a lot of effort for him to finally break her walls, but just as when the two of them hit it off – the secret that he’s been keeping is threatening to drive them apart. Maybe for good.

I like Branden, especially his outlook in life. He was sweet, charming and smart. He has some family issues, and I thought all the while it was really the problem. I was betting on the twist and ending – I was right on the twist, I had it coming, but the ending had surprised me. Sometimes, we often see the value of people if we already lose them – so make it a habit everyday to be honest to the people you love and tell them how you feel. Who knew? You might never have the chance to say it to them.

Impossibly Love is indeed a Rated G New Adult but it doesn’t mean it won’t make you swoon – because Branden is enough to make your pulse race a little bit faster than normal.

EXCERPT -

Moya’s eyes widened when I spun her around to face me. It was obvious what I was about to do and I knew very well she wouldn’t let it happen without a fight. Her attempts at being freed were futile as my hold increased the more she squirmed in my arms.

  “Let go!” she demanded.

  I blew hard, eager to drown myself in the sweetness of her lips. Dismissing her protest—and the little voice at the back of my head telling me not to—I shoved my mouth to hers and kissed her hungrily.

  Moya lifted her hands to my chest and pushed tentatively, and just as fast they began to lower. I knew she couldn’t resist the deep passion evoking between us. Finally, she yielded, and I wrapped my arms even tighter around her as Moya parted her lips and allowed me to enter.

  We groaned as our tongues collided, touching each other wildly as if the kiss was not only our first but our last. Moya placed her hands on my lower back, touching me sensually with her fingertips as she worked her way up my spine. She caressed the back of my neck, and then combed her fingers seductively through my hair.

  By the time the kiss ended, we were both panting, trying to breathe steadily.

  Moya wobbled as she backed away. “I have to get to class,” she whispered shakily as if under a trance.

  I released her with regret and watched as Moya turned and started up the path, staggering along the way.

  Afterwards, I dragged my thumb lightly along my lips, eyes fastened on Moya as she walked away. I could still feel the heat of her skin on mine, giving light to a fire of pleasure that threatened to make my hands shake in memory of her taste.

Motivated by the promise of her presence, I walked up the path as well, following behind the girl I was indisputably falling hard for and fast.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR -

Shane’s love for writing started the moment she picked up a Nancy Drew book. At a young age, she began writing short stories, divulging in a variety of genres; from comedy, drama, to horror and romance. She’s quite intrigued by the otherworldly or things otherwise deemed “impossible.”
