Check out my review and author giveaway for Beautiful Addictions by Season Vining.
Synopsis
Josie Banks is a girl without a past. After being found unconscious with no memory, she was shuffled in
and out of foster homes where she suffered years of abuse. An experience that left her broken, damaged,
and clinging to drugs and meaningless hook-ups to numb her pain.
When Josie disappeared years ago, she took a piece of Tristan with her. She’s the girl he thought he lost
forever—the one he’s never been able to forget. Now a twist of fate has brought them back together, and
he never wants to let her out of his inked arms again. But Tristan is haunted by a dark past of his own.
On the run from ruthless criminals that shattered Josie’s world years ago, reentering her life puts them
both in danger. As Josie and Tristan’s lives become tangled once again, they find themselves unwilling and unable to escape the relentless pull that draws them together. But will the past leave their love in ruins—or bind them together for a lifetime?

I am not going to regurgitate the synopsis...but I will top-line my thoughts on Beautiful Addictions. Season Vining hit the ground running with her first book. She is wickedly talented. The way in which she described certain everyday things was quite poetic and found myself re reading lines -- just for the beauty of it. BA is told from multiple POV’s and was a bit confusing and challenging to get into in the beginning. I think once the back story unraveled I got really into it. BA is filled with some crazy interconnected elements amongst the different characters. Just when I thought I might have something figured out…I didn’t…and I liked that. This wasn’t a cookie cutter type of second chance romance and exceeded my expectations. Great blend of romance, suspense, drama, twists and turns that kept my mind racing in the second half of this book.
