I. AM. GUTTED.

This review is for the whole of the story. I honestly cannot think of another author in this genre , who excells in character development like Jewel does... Pam Godwin is a close second, but Jewel reigns supreme. It had come to point in my reading, where I couldn't even give a high point of the last story I had read-- the stories had zero effect on me, and then I found the Transcend duet by Jewel E. Ann. She can tell you a story that will OWN YOU. Every feeling - first love, insecurity, jealousy, betrayal, protectiveness, fear, faith, anxiety, rage, and so many more - you will experience all of them in first person as you live the lives of these characters. This story will gut you emotionally. I felt like a teenager, ready to lash out & let the bodies hit the floor regardless of consequence - while experiencing life, for the first time, in all of its soul-stripping unfairness.
Listening to this while on a road trip, my daughter grabbed my attention with a very worried expression, asking if I was alright due to my red face and chest heaving, as if I was in a full blown panic attack or maybe a rage. I will feel this one for a good while to come. I hope you do too!
10+⭐️'s. I'm onto my next Jewel E. Ann gem, The Naked Fisherman!

wtf was this

Girl. Lol. Jewel used to be my favorite but she is proving to be a flop.

After two books, she tried to wrap up this story in the literal final hour. Spoiler, it didn’t work. So many loose strings and plot holes. I need to know who looped this lady into a 20 book deal bc she’s just churning out absolute crap for cash at this point.
