Love Bites

By Rachel K. Burke

Synopsis

What do you do when you fall in love with your best friend’s boyfriend?

That is the question that twenty-six year-old Justine Sterling has been asking herself ever since the day she met David Whitman, her best friend Renee’s boyfriend. Justine is determined to ignore her growing feelings for the irresistibly charming David, until one night, when she finds herself in the bed of the one person she should stay away from.

When Justine and David’s affair ends in heartbreak, Justine is forced to repair the damaged friendship with her best friend. In doing so, she learns that right and wrong decisions aren’t always black and white, and sometimes you have to follow your heart to see where it leads.

Michel’s Review

Love Bites by Rachel K. Burke is more than your typical angsty New Adult Romance.  It is a story of learning to live after the heartbreak.  It is a story of forgiveness, soul searching, and hope.

Justine Sterling broke the ultimate rule.  She fell in love with the wrong guy.  She fell in love with her best friend’s boyfriend.  The devastation that comes from breaking this rule could be the the worst thing Justine has ever done or it could be the best thing she has done.  Depending on how you look at the situation, either way Justine learned a lot of life lessons.

This story focuses more on what happened after she broke up with her boyfriend.  The emotional journey Justine has to go through before she finally finds herself and love once again is something all of us has experienced in our lifetimes.  Sometimes we focus on the past instead of seeing what is right in front of our eyes.

Love Bites was very well written.  The characters were well developed and easy to relate to.  The pacing in this book was a bit slow and I found quite a bit of repetitive passages.  Overall it is a good book and I would recommend it. I am looking forward to reading more books from this author.
