Review: DUSTY DELINQUENTS by MARY ELIZABETH & SARAH ELIZABETH

REVIEW TOUR

DUSTY DELINQUENTS
BY

MARY ELIZABETH & SARAH ELIZABETH





SYNOPSIS:

The innocent girl with a delinquent heart has to live with her bad choices. Secret hope and hurt feel like falling while she learns how to breathe again, but there's still freedom in trouble.

The runaway with blacked-out eyes is losing his grip. Crushing two hearts in one fist, his addiction bends rules and breaks deals, but the boy born for bliss isn't going anywhere without a fight.

Love is knowing they should stay away, but love is illogical at best.

She's afraid to let go.

He won't let her.

This is how silliness and foolishness grow up.

Here, forever is a lie.
 


REVIEW:

I'm actually struggling to put into words how I feel about this book. This book deals fantastically with drug culture in teens. It shows us how drugs become the third person in a relationship causing almost a love triangle. I love the way the authors write about drugs as if they were a person this made the book so much more gritty and angsty. Throughout the book Dusty and Bliss are fighting for their happily ever after - do they get it? The authors include the surrounding characters brilliantly  enhancing the storyline with the realism they provide. I loved how connected emotionally I was with Dusty and Bliss and this is due to the exceptional talent of the authors. I award this book 5 fabulous stars and look forward to reading more from both of these authors in the future! Thank you for sharing your work with us at For The Love Of Books ~ Rosie

About this author

Mary Elizabeth is an up and coming author who finds words in chaos, writing stories about the skeletons hanging in your closets. Known as The Realist, she is one half of The Elizabeths--a duo brave enough to never hide the truth.

Mary was born and raised in Southern California. She is a wife, mother of four beautiful children, and dog tamer to one enthusiastic Pit Bull and a prissy Chihuahua. She's a hairstylist by day but contemporary fiction, new adult author by night. Mary can often be found finger twirling her hair and chewing on a stick of licorice while writing and rewriting a sentence over and over until it's perfect. She discovered her talent for tale-telling accidentally, but literature is in her chokehold. And she's not letting go until every story is told.

"The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure."--Jeremiah 17:9
