I can't tell you how much I love Chelsea Fine.
Ahhh, Sophie & Carter.
This was recommended to me, and it reminds me of Callum & Harper. Both books have similar attributes, but they are both great stories of love and struggle. Sophie and Carter are neighbors and children of worthless parents- Sophie’s mom, an addict and prostitute; Carter’s mother, mentally unstable, delusional and paranoid.
What girl could not want a Carter Jax in her own life? He’s completely in love with Sophie, as is she of him. I love the loyalty to each other, and the generosity of the two towards each other. My favorite parts are from Carter’s perspective, on Sophie’s life.
It’s a short read, so there are no excuses about not having time. I finished this in a day!
“That was the night I decided Sophie needed protecting. And if I couldn’t protect my mom, then I was going to protect the girl next door.”
“I spent all afternoon trying to shake off my jealousy. Turns out you can’t shake jealousy off. You’ve got to pet it and lie to it and soothe it until it settles comfortably in the back of your mind.”
“I’m crying because the boy next door loves me and it’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”
