I’m going to borrow a lesson or two from another Jay McLean couple because I believe it beautifully illustrates Lucas and Laney’s relationship as well as the trials and tribulations they face together as well as apart. There hasn’t been a book that I haven’t learned a life lesson that puts things into perspective for me…that forces me to take a step back and look at my life and acknowledge what I’m blessed with, especially when my dark thoughts threaten to take me under. It’s also the exact length of time it took to lose her.Įvery time I sit down to read a Jay McLean story, I blown away by what her characters teach me about living…about loving…about dying. It took only sixteen clicks and eight seconds for Lucas to realize that his like for Laney had turned into love. His saving grace? Lois “Laney” Sanders, a girl he started to fall in like with when he was just eleven.Ī girl who became his best friend, his confidant, his courage. He also has an older sister, five younger brothers and a father who relies on him to make sure those brothers don’t kill each other. High school senior Lucas Preston has it all: star of the track team, a scholarship waiting for him, an apartment to himself and a revolving door of girlfriends. When you’re waiting for love, those milliseconds can feel like eons.
