The Coincidence of Callie & Kayden by Jessica Sorensen

4.0

After seeing this on Instagram I decided to take the plunge without knowing much about the story.

Callie and Kayden
Two broken souls
Two twisted fates
Two halves of a whole

Callie suffered at the hands of a monster. One that she is reminded of on a constant basis. Kayden suffers at the hands of a monster. One that he had to lives with.

Without realising it, they’re fated to help each other heal.

This book has a great story. It’s characters are well written and are people you would happily want in your life. The hard hitting topics are dealt with in a sympathetic yet honest way. And it was so enjoyable I bought the 2nd book straight away.

I loved Callie’s journey to healing, and Kayden’s to unraveling. Seth and Luke are both great side characters. Seth is a particular favourite, I want a best friend like Seth. He’s honest, open, loyal, supportive and loving. He’s not afraid to move forward. And he’s exact the friend Callie needs.

The only downside is the parents in this book. Both slightly unhinged on their own ways. One more so than the other. But they were just too oblivious to me. Too involved in their own lives. Wants and hopes. Which I guess is part of the point. But it’s just sad.
