Finding Wonderful

by Jessica Sorensen

Willa
My best friend, Brecken, collects secrets. So when he tells me he knows a potentially life-destroying secret about someone, I don’t think too much about it.

Until he dies a few hours later.

The police rule his death a suicide, but I’m not convinced. I don’t really start to fully question his death, though, until the day Gaige Irvins moves in with me.

Gaige used to be a good guy up until three years ago when he joined the popular group known as the Perfect Rebels. Now he’s a cocky jerk that hasn’t been very nice to me.

I try to keep my distance from him, but no matter how hard I try, I find myself drawn to him, enough to let him kiss me. But that kiss shatters everything and forces me back to reality.

And the reality is Gaige might have had something to do with Brecken’s death.

Gaige
Sometimes I feel like the loneliest guy in the world. Do I have friends? Sure. But none of them know the real me, the guy beneath the cocky facade, fake smiles, secrets, and lies.

I wish I could change, but I can’t. Not unless I want to risk my secret getting out. A secret I’m being blackmailed over.

To make things worse, the day I move in with Willa, my blackmailer sends me a new threat: get close to Willa and find out her secrets.

It’s not like his demand is terrible. Willa is gorgeous, just a little strange. But my friends and I haven’t been that nice to her, and I know getting close to her is going to be difficult.

[Madeleine Knutsson · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is The Curse of the Soulless without the supernatural stuff.

Why the hell do people write novella series, they're so goddamn annoying

Thoroughly enjoyed this!!!

I didn't expect to enjoy this that much. I can't wait to unravel this story and get to the bottom of what happened.

Review to come!

[Rachel Medrano · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good just like all of her books, but very, very short. I would suggest not reading it until the others come out because you will be sucked in and then left waiting.

[BabyLunLun · Rating 3 out of 5]

Most of Jessica Sorensen's books always guaranteed to get a 3 stars from me. Finding Wonderful is no exception.

It is short and enjoyable for the most part and ended in a cliffhanger

[Rachael McKee · Rating 1 out of 5]

Didn't finish and I wont....
Too many of Jessica's books are now the exact same book with the exact same characters with a slightly different plot twist. It is so frustrating and a waste of money.
I may not read many of her new books after I finish the series I am already in.
OH! And instead of finishing her in progress series, she continues to rewrite the same book over and over and over again.
This book is EXACTLY the Curse of the Soulless with a different twist. So frustrating...

Sad

This is the same as The Curse of the Soulless, just changed some details. This is so sad I don't even know what to say.

[april hughed · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow

I love this author. This is a great short read. Interesting story and great characters. Can't wait to see what happens next.

[Tanya Salvatore · Rating 4 out of 5]

More please. When is part 2 coming out?

[Nikki Pennington · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a lot shorter than I anticipated. That happens to me, because I never look and see how many pages a book is before I start reading. I'm not really a fan of the short quick read. This one has a good story line though...and man oh man that cliffhanger...it definitely makes sure to leave you hanging so you want to come back for more.

Ok, I'm a huge Jessica Sorensen fan. I love, love, LOVE her books. And this is just another to add to my collection. The mystery....the loss...the heart ache, omg I just loved it.
And holy $hits I think I know who the black mailer is and I think he is the one who accidentally killed this poor girl. Yup. just wait.

[Michel Reinhard (Saucy Southern Readers) · Rating 4 out of 5]

Finding Wonderful by Jessica Sorensen was very good but ended on a cliffhanger. As in true Jessica Sorensen fashion, the readers get immersed into the characters lives and the conflict tearing their world apart. There is an evolving mystery, a troubled past, and hope for new beginnings. Two unlikely people find themselves placed together because of uncontrollable events.

I thoroughly enjoyed this beginning and can't wait to see what comes next.

[Elizabeth Edwards · Rating 5 out of 5]

Now the cover looks different, is that broken glass? rose petals or? so cool! either way.
What a great read, new author to me ... I love the cover ... So many ?'s unanswered. Can't tell ya too much, jump on in & start reading ...
