Our Tainted Hearts

Confused Cliche Love #1

by S. Liscine

Blake Limington, the good girl of West Field High, is the exact contrast of her sister, from hair, to eyes, to even body type; they're different. Blake loves to get A’s, listen to music, hang in her room, and, all in all, stay away from most human contact. Tessa, her twin sister, loves to party, get drunk, have sex, and most of all: hang out with people in gangs. Tessa’s boyfriend, Brian, is the second in command of Ray Brenalds, the leader of a gang named KILL.
Ray Brenalds is quiet, scary quiet not cute quiet, tall, muscular, and strikingly handsome. He is known as the player, the bad boy, the trouble maker, and his most famous title; The Gang Leader. Ray isn’t known to associate with people, which is why it comes to everyone’s surprise when he starts to find a liking towards quiet good girl; Blake. That liking could be reciprocated, or it could not, but in the end it all just leads to trouble.
Follow Blake on her journey of dealing with seduction, morals, respect, violence, love, lust, drugs and many more.

I was really enjoying this and then in the epilogue the author just messed it all up for me. Their actions seemed so against their characters that I was completely dumbfounded by their behaviour! Completely ruined the book for me and I’m seriously annoyed I wasted my time!

Started Good/Ended Rough

I was so engrossed in this book at the beginning. As the book progressed, things got confusing, Blake's character changed drastically, and by the end I was disappointed. I won't give anything away because people should read this and make their own opinions, but to me, it didn't seem that Blake loved Ray enough.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I have loved this book ever since it was on Wattpad and I bought all the chapters on Radish as well. This is one of the books that I’ve read that I will always remember and never forget because it’s THAT GOOD.

I love Blake and Ray to the point that it hurts and I love their story but to be honest, the way Liscine ended the book was terrible. It was a lazy way to end the book and make a cliffhanger. Nevertheless, I will always love this book no matter what.

This book was so good I can't wait to buy it I did nothing but read it I was so tied into the book that I miss days of work just to finish the book and just read it. To the author I wish the very best that you will continue to write ,have good inspiration ,and an creative mind.

My favorite part was when Ray spelled it out for Blake that he likes her and she was still in shock and when her dad saw them in the car. i was so scared for her because she had never done anything like this before and the family wouldn't expect her do be on Ray like that... i didn't even think that would have happen

This author keep you on the edge of our seat and I can tell you that I had nights like that before and no other book can make me do that is why i'm so proud and excited for this author and I wish her the very best for her and her work.

*sigh*its another one of those books that is written very well,but you just cannot agree with the characters life decisions. The author did a really good job at writing but the characters were kinda not my cup of tea tbh. First of all what really pissed me off in this book is the main characters sister.she once looked down on her sister,mocked her just because she wasnt dating a gang member and was not a crackhead who chose to not dress the way her sister wanted her to dress like .i was just really mad at how her sister couldnt accept her sister the way she was.okay maybe she was trying to get her out of her shell but really? Just because she wasnt all about that "so cool badboy gangster" life she isnt someone to be looked down on. Shit actually she is tons smarter than her sister.second of all i really dont like ray. He is stupid and another cliche bad boy who bangs chicks and does illegal stupid shit like the main character blakes "bad girl sister" Tessa and her "cool gangster boyfriend" does.Last but not least near the ending, the plotline started to get kinda messy and comical. İt was a bit funny,but overall the author is really talented in my opinion ,at the time that i read this book i really enjoyed it. Even tough i didnt agree with the characters behaviours and what their idea of "having fun"was, it was a well written book. But as it says on the title, it really is a cliche.

This books story line is okay but the wording is so basic. Too many short sentences and not enough development. I tried to read it but I couldn’t force myself to make it through.

I honestly LOVE this book! It has romance, suspense, action, drama, and a coming of age concept. There's so many awkward relate-able moments that make you laugh and fall in love with the characters. The antagonists in the book even make you love that protagonist more by showing her imperfections and making her more human. It's like watching an innocent child grow and bloom into a woman! Personally, I didn't even mind the sexual humor and moments. I found myself hanging on to those moments and becoming more comfortable with them in my own life. I read this book at two very different points in my life and I grew along with the main character, Blake. To conclude, this book is truly amazing and it made me see that sometimes the bad boy isn't actually bad and the good girl isn't always good.

This book is so unique and inspirational I love it there are no words that can describe how much I love this book. I'm still waiting for you to update more chapters and everything but from what I've read so far it's great. Thank You, I'm so happy you're getting published you deserve it all. I love you and Ray with his fine self.

This is such an amazing book and very worth reading the romance in this book is very different to anything else I have read in a good way just reading the way Blake's and Ray's love escalades is very intriguing and it really pulls you in as well as the other challenges them and the other characters come face to face with.

I read the first few chapters of this book on Wattpad and I totally fell in love with it .The story gives you such a vivid imagination and makes you enter into your mind where anything is possible and I believe this is what every book should be like .I can honestly say this is one of the best books I have read.

Sloppy writing confused plot.

[Megan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved it! This is my second time reading it and I enjoyed it just as much as the first.

[Jodi Crouch · Rating 3 out of 5]

So I wanted to give this 4 stars but when I got to the end it just was rushed. There could have been maybe a second book to finish this story instead of so rushed at the end. But I did like it.

[Drew]

Read a preview and although I like the idea of the storyline, it wasn’t well executed at all.

[Diana · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was a lovely story but close to the end it went down the hill really bad in my opinion. Some things happened that I didn't expect, but overall it was a good one.

[Isabella Curry · Rating 5 out of 5]

fun read!

I love the book so much. But I love Blake more

[wRoni35 · Rating 2 out of 5]

While readying this book I had mixed emotions about it. First I liked it and was hooked to finish it then I started to get bored with a feeling of repetitiveness and then loved it again in the end. First in the beginning I thought it was well started and gave a good amount of background information on the characters life and attitude towards things. As the book continued the relationship part picked up but a bit differently then I expected. The more explicit romantics scenes are the ones that bugged me the most. I felt like there was a lot and repeated parts. I wished I got to see more of there relationship grow in all and not just the process of the sexual growth of their relationship. As the book continued I enjoyed the book more when it became more based on their life as a couple with the backgrounds they come from and not just the sexual part of the relationship. Overall I thought the book was good and loved Ray and Blake together. Lastly I will say the epilogue was not what I expected and a little confusing at times but while reading the epilogue the confusion got clear and mad sense. I also wish some of the epilogue was its own book. Some of the scenes I wish I could see more of that time frame and see what led to what was happening and what followed. Overall I enjoyed the book and do not at all regret reading it and I would reread it again. There where just some scenes I wish where a bit different, but still love the book and loved reading it! For sure when the book gets published I will buy it so I can reread it and have it on my bookshelf

If I could give this book a negative rating, I would.

Don’t get me wrong, she had the idea, and it was a good one, a great one even. But then she burnt the idea and stomped on it in the epilogue.

Also, I don’t think the author’s message was clear in this book. Was this Blake’s awakening or her corruption? Was her being ‘bad’ just her being who she truly wanted to be, or was she just negatively influenced by her first boyfriend? I think this question needs to be answered more clearly in the book.

There’s just SO many better directions this book could’ve went in, and if it had, I believe this book would’ve gone bigger.

[Addison · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book was very like getting into things and they were not always where they were supposed to go. I thought it was very interesting and the things that they had to make a decision for was not always the right lesion that they made. I told other classmates to read this book and they come up to me and even say it was a really good book that they are just starting to read.

[Mushtaq]

This is a really good book.
