Mackenzie “Mac” Stonebreaker had no idea that volunteering
at the Hunter’s Moon Ranch will be the key to unlocking all her unanswered
questions and redefine her future. Life
for Mac and several other children has been difficult and their state appointed
warden, er, guardian made living at the juvenile detention center even more
difficult. Determined to go and find the
answers she has been seeking Mac does something she is not thrilled about, but
finds it necessary to carry out her plans. Then chaos ensues as gunshots are
heard. What comes next sets the stage for
a storyline that is emotional, eye opening, and heart-warming.
CLAIMED is P.J. O’Dwyer’s debut YA novel and just with her
other titles, she delivers a wonderfully written story that goes beyond the
words. While this is categorized as a YA
book, the storyline is much more.
Readers will enjoy the friendships that are developing between Mac,
Caroline, Cade, and Troy. Mac and
Caroline meet Cade and Troy during their late night escape. They thought they had seen the last of the
guys but fate has a way showing up at when you least expect it. The four will fast become friends and I am
intrigued as to how these relationships are develop, in the next book,
DITCHED. Also, I should mention that the
adults in this book are just as pivotal.
You will be introduced to Dr. Rachel Hunter, Gil Bruckner, and Whit
Mason.
The characters are believable and engaging from the first
page to the very last! You will have
several teary-eyed moments so keep some tissue handy!
