Who We Were...

Two awkward teenagers - the loner and the nerd, trying to find our place in the world. Paired in wood shop, we knew nothing of each other, except that we wanted to know everything. Then one life altering moment changed it all and we were left with shattered dreams and broken hearts.

Who We Are...

Two grown men - braver and smarter than we used to be, trying to heal the damage from that irrevocable moment. Even though the past was behind us, dead and buried long ago, we found it impossible to move on without ripping open the scars of our deep wounds.

With twelve years of unanswered questions fueling our desperate need for the truth, we must figure out if who we were will destroy who we are.

4 Stars

Ms. Collins has written us another deeply emotional read. I admit to ignoring life and flipping through page after page. The anger and loss of these characters is soul wrenching and you find yourself wanting to console one minute and angry the next.

The time span of this story is certainly needed to understand the dynamics of two teen boys that are complete opposites that are thrown together for a high school project. Not only do they end up friends but they help each other to figure out who they really are. What their desires are, where they want to go with their future. But just as Ryan is beginning to make his plans, his parents slap him with another secret causing him to run.

Quinn has managed to hide his pain deep and somehow moved forward the only way he knew how. Now he finds himself forced with seeing Ryan again and bringing back all those feelings and heartache. Is it possible for a second chance? Will their fears just end up causing them more pain. Can Ryan find what he needs to repair his heart and soul so he can truly live life with love and happiness? Or has the last twelve years been too long and created too distance?

Melissa Collins has always been a book worm. Studying Literature in college ensured that her nose was always stuck in a book. She followed her passion for reading to the most logical career choice: English teacher. Her hope was to share her passion for reading and the escapism of books to her students. Having spent more than a decade in front of a classroom, she can easily say that it’s been a dream. Her passion for writing didn’t start until more recently. When she was home on maternity leave in early 2012, she read her first romance novel and her head filled with the passion, angst and laughter of the characters who she read about it. It wasn’t long before characters of her own took shape in her mind. Their lives took over Melissa’s brain and The Love Series was born.
