Love isn't always responsible.
After Micky O’Neill is remanded in custody for breaching his court order, his already tempestuous relationship with Dan Peters is tested to the limits.
Having to battle their way through a court case that could end with Micky in jail, social workers breaking up the family home, and the return of Micky’s deadbeat father, it seems everything is set to destroy their relationship before it even had the chance to start.
With such high stakes involved, not just for Micky but for once-burned, twice-shy Dan, they both have to learn that falling in love isn’t always responsible.
I have to say, I would get annoyed with Micky, especially as it seems that Dan is the best thing to happen to him, but he seems to be determined sometimes to sabotage what they have together. Dan though, he is not a person who gives up easily.
Micky has never met anyone like Dan before, and I think deep down he knows he is there for him, but he just doesn't understand why Dan stays with him, what he actually sees in him - this I think this all goes back to what things were like as he was growing up, especially his dead beat father, who just seems to make things worse.
When social workers break up his family, he is surprised at who steps up to help, and to show Micky that there people who want him to succeed, that not everyone expects him to fail, just because of who is father is. It is also around now, that Micky realises that Dan is not going to go away, that he means what he says.
Is it possible for Dan to finally convince Micky that they have something together, or will Micky completely try Dans' patience??
I can guarantee that you will go through various emotions while reading this series, from anger at how people are treating Micky, then also annoyance with Micky for how he treats Dan. But then on other occasions, Micky will come across as someone so gentle.
If you want to read a series that is a really different to the usual stories, then read this one, I don't think you will be disappointed.. I look forward to reading more by this author.
Brought up in a relatively small town in Hertfordshire, C F White managed to do what most other residents try to do and fail—leave.
Studying at a West London university, she realised there was a whole city out there waiting to be discovered, so, much like Dick Whittington before her, she never made it back home and still endlessly searches for the streets paved with gold, slowly coming to the realisation they’re mostly paved with chewing gum. And the odd bit of graffiti. And those little circles of yellow spray paint where the council point out the pot holes to someone who is supposedly meant to fix them instead of staring at them vacantly whilst holding a polystyrene cup of watered-down coffee.
She eventually moved West to East along that vast District Line and settled for pie and mash, cockles and winkles and a bit of Knees Up Mother Brown to live in the East End of London; securing a job and creating a life, a home and a family.
Having worked in Higher Education for most of her career, a life-altering experience brought pen back to paper after she’d written stories as a child but never had the confidence to show them to the world. Having embarked on this writing malarkey, C F White cannot stop. So strap in, it’s gonna be a bumpy ride...
