Stand-alone story

Forbidden romance
I adore Charlene’s writing and this book is no different. This is an age gap(11 years), step sibling romance. This is the epitome of FORBIDDEN and I loved it.Shay is 11 when his dad takes in a woman who is pregnant, she was thrown out of her home and Shay’s dad gave her a new one. They got married and Shay became a big brother to Skye, whom he calls blue because of her big blue eyes.The first half of this book we see the relationship between Shay and Skye from being a baby all the way to 18 years old. I did find that beginning for me was a bit slow, but it’s to give you an insight as to how their bond was when they were young.The second half of this book is much more fast paced and had me turning the pages fast.

Absolutely beautiful!
To be completely honest, when I first read the blurb for “If Only” I wasn’t convinced, a step siblings love it’s no exactly my cup of tea. But then I thought, “wait”! Who else could convince me, if not Charlene -the queen of difficult forbidden romance. The author that can spin a trope we read many times before in her own fantastic, unique way.This book brought me back what I was missing a while now- a hunger for reading. That feeling when everything around you ceased to exist. No social media, no scrolling on the phone, the only thing that matters is the story that author is telling us.And what a story that was 💙 From the first page I couldn’t put it down, it was sharp, entertaining and pushed the boundaries to maximum. The further I read the more I felt in love with it, unfortunately love sometimes comes with a price to pay and this one definitely did. It broke my heart with every “If only” I found in the book.Your cup of tea or not, trust me you want to drink it 😊Oh Shay, if only men like you would really exist… 💙💙💙

it’s not what you think it’s so much more
So I can’t explain how much this book grabbed me made me feel emotional,hapoy ,sad .. the story had so much depth and made my throat burn with emotions and I need more I need to know the rest of the groups stories..there was a few editing errors and normally I would deduct stars but I just couldn’t..give this book a go you won’t be disappointed if you like stories with a difference and be ready to feel a whole lot more ..

tear jerker but HEA
I absolutely loved this powerful story, the ending was almost perfect & longer epilogue would of been 5*’s. hopefully without giving to much away my issue which let it down was everyones sudden acceptance of the completed forbidden taboo relationship & felt like Skye/blue finding out the secrets at the very last chapter was to late down the line because shays secrets in the second half/until ending was just unnecessary by then and caused her unnecessary suffering & though he was almost perfect I felt that was to easily forgiven after every he put her threw. That being said this story and writing hooked me from the start & is definitely with the read.

Oh Boy Oh Boy. Fantastic
Charlene does it again!. How I love how Shay is always there for "Blue" Skye in her upbringing, but feelings became so strong for the both of them to stay together in a small town. This is a book you will not forget easily. It has all the emotions to make you feel for these strong characters. It is a different kind of age gap read. One that will get you gripped for more. I loved Griffin too. Brilliantly put together.

OMG
This book broke me, you need tissues and lots of them, I'm a mess, this book as you sucked in from the first page. And you will feel every emotion there is. By the time you get to the end you will feel like you were getting off an emotional rollercoaster that you have been on for days.What a story it's heart breaking, but it is also so good.Forbidden love.Age gap.What else can I say it is total brilliance written on paper. No review can give it enough credit you need to read it. Absolutely phenomenal.Every chapter is a song listen to them. Love how it all comes together.I have read loads of books this year and this one is definitely on of my favourites.

I’m on the fence
I think overall it was a good story but i don’t think it needed to be that complicated🤔 people purposely refused to tell the truth even when the people around them clearly needed to hear it…I also think Skye defo should have been upset for longer.
