ALLUSIVE Aftershock A Young Adult Romance Survival love friendship and betrayal edition by Susan Griscom Contemporary Romance eBooks

Wow what an emotionally charged story! I cried, laughed and cried some more. Allusive Aftershock is such a beautifully written story about surviving an earthquake and the aftershocks. It is also so much more. Adela, Courtland and Max are the three main characters. Adela and Max are best friends and spend a great deal of time together. Adela has a huge crush on Max and believes some day he will realize they are meant to be together. Courtland is pretty much an outcast and Max is a huge reason for this. Courtland can communicate with animals, which many find to be odd and abnormal.

Courtland saves Adela, more than once, while Max shows his true colors. Adela is left alone with Courtland and begins to see a different side of him. I honestly loved Courtland from the moment he was introduced. The way he put others needs before his own and the tenderness he used when helping animals. Max really ticked me off. His needs were always most important and he always wanted to be center of attention. The way he treated Courtland infuriated me and he even treated his supposed best friend with little respect (in my opinion). Adela begins to see that maybe Max isn't the perfect guy she has always thought him to be and sees Courtland in a new light.

Allusive Aftershock is such a gripping story. I found the way Susan Griscom wrote this story to be very touching. I couldn't help but get swept away by the turmoil these characters experienced and cry when they faced the realities of losing loved ones and fighting to survive a catastrophe of such magnitude. I think everyone should read this book!!!

ALLUSIVE Aftershock A Young Adult Romance Survival love friendship and betrayal edition by Susan Griscom Contemporary Romance eBooks Reviews

This book was amazing! Faced with a catastrophic series of earthquakes, Adela, her best friend Max, and classmate Courtland are left alone and struggling for survival. Courtland was a bit of an outcast, being able to understand the needs of animals better than the average person. Adela has spent her entire childhood swooning over Max, who only saw her as a friend, and Max has spent the last eight years hating Courtland after an incident that happened between these two when they were best friends.

The circumstances these young adults found themselves in were horrific, and were so well described that I often felt like I was right there with them through the earthquakes and subsequent aftershocks. Susan was able to bring these three young people to life for me, and I found myself rooting for them, mourning their losses, and reveling in their triumphs. I also love a book where the characters evolve into who they were meant to be. This is absolutely the case with this book! They certainly learned a lot about life and a lot about themselves during the course of this book!

This book had all the elements required to make a great, fast-paced read love, hate, catastrophe, fear, and humor. I would most definitely recommend this book to anyone, young or old! There are some parts of the book that I thought might get too adult, but were actually not. In fact, I would be very comfortable having my own teenagers read this book, because of the excellent message it sends!
This book took me by surprise. I was immediately captivated from the very first page.I haven't read a book about characters facing earthquakes so it was a nice change for me. I was very glad to take that journey with them. It seemed Susan put a lot of research in the story. I learned a little about earthquakes while reading this and I love that!!! The story was beautifully written and well thought out. I felt as if I was right there with the characters facing everything they faced. It felt so real. I also loved how Susan switched up the POVs in this story. It was nice to see what Courtland was thinking as well as Adela.

A week after the first earthquake, life goes back to normal. They all go back to school and work. First day back to school, a huge earthquake hit. The school was completely damaged. Courtland saved Adela's life. Max pulls her away from him and starts leading them home. When Max and Adela get to her house, Adela can't find any of her family so they decide to head to Max's home. On the way, they find Courtland hurt pretty badly. They pull him to Max's house, and realize Max's family dead. They take shelter in Max's cellar with a few days worth of food and water. When it starts running low, Max leaves to search for more. He never comes back. Courtland and Adela start connecting to each other during their time together. When they decide to leave, another aftershock hits and caves them in. After three days of trying to get out, Cooper shows up and digs them out. Courtland and Adela begin their journey again. They start looking for her family and a shelter. Along their way, they find Max almost dead. Will the three of them work together and find shelter? Will Adela find her family if they are still alive?

I loved every character in this story. There wasn't a character I didn't like. Adela was was very strong and loyal. She always thought she loved Max until she started spending time with Courtland. She got the butterflies with Coutland and was surprised. I loved watching their relationship grow and build into something new. Courtland was a sweetheart. After losing his dog, Shiloh, and his father, he vowed not to lose Adela either. He has always loved her. Max hates Courtland over something that happened when they were kids. He was Adela's best friend. He never saw her as anything more. When he sees that Adela and Courtland are close, he becomes protective of her. Max sees that they truly love each other and the friendship between him and Courtland changes for the better. They become friends again. I loved that.

The only criticism I have about this book is that the ending was a little rushed to me. When Adela, Max and Courtland was at the museum, iI saw I only had a few pages left. I immediately thought there was going to be a book two since it didn't feel as if it was going to end in just a few pages. But it did. I just wish their was a little more to the ending even though it made me cry.

This was a great book!!! I really did enjoy it. The world-building was well crafted and the story was well developed. Allusive Aftershock is a book I will definitely reread. Great job Susan!!!
A Beautiful story about surviving an earthquake overcoming loss and finding real love! it's emotional funny and heart meltingly romantic! I was hooked from page one did not want this book to end Allusive Aftershock would make an epic movie!!!
I totally fell in love with Courtland & Adela they have sizzling chemistry!!!

Courtland was smokin' hot funny strong and loving he's an outcast yet he always put others needs first and used tenderness when helping animals with his gift!!!

Adela was awesome sassy sweet beautiful strong willed with a caring heart I loved that no mater how bad things got she never gave up on the ones she loved!

Susan Griscom is Amazing 5 STARS ALL THE WAY!!!!
