Constant
by Rachel Higginson
*** full review on wildandwonderfulreads.com ***
Let me start of by saying that if you haven’t yet read a Rachel Higginson book, you’re missing out! She has a book for most types of readers, and I recommend that you pick one up, whether it’s this book or another.
Rachel is the best-selling author of The Opposite of You, The Five Stages of Falling in Love, Every Wrong Reason, Bet on Us and The Star-Crossed Series. I love Rachel’s writing, and I was extremely excited when asked to review an ARC of Constant.
I love when a synopsis really grabs my attention, and, I mean, did you read the summary of Constant!?! You could just tell that the plot was going to be full of suspense, and it absolutely did not disappoint for me.
Constant shares the story of Caroline. Caroline’s life was not perfect, and she was forced to live a certain way when she was younger thanks to her father’s choices. Fast forward, and Caroline lives a much different, more simple life with her daughter and best friend. As the story progresses, more pieces of the puzzle connect to form a clearer picture and gives the reader a better understanding of what happened over the years in Caroline’s life to make her lifestyle go from one extreme to another with her living in fear.
I loved the way the story was set up — jumping between past and present until everything fell into place and aligned.
The plot itself was intense and full of anticipation. I needed to keep reading to find out the next bit of the story. Constant deals with the criminal underground in Washington D.C., and, although I have precisely zero knowledge on the subject, I felt like it was portrayed pretty well.
I will now also vaguely mention that it gets a little steamy, and based on the ending, I assume we might get more of that in book 2 — no arguments from me on that if it does!
For the most part, I liked Caroline’s character. She is strong and knows what she needs to do. She knows what she has to do to keep the most important aspects of her life safe. Her counterpart, Sayer, grew on me as the book progressed (but I think that is the point). I can’t wait to get more of them both in Consequence.
Now, it is a good thing book 2 releases soon because THAT ENDING!!! I am still trying to recover from the massive cliffhanger!
Overall, I would definitely recommend Constant! Rachel is an Indie author, and she deserves lots of love and support. Fans of second chance romance with a major spin will enjoy this book. Be on the lookout for some more info about the sequel, Consequence (which drops in February 2018), coming soon!
