Yes, forks, it's Amy Harmon.
Her books are always deep and intense and such character-rich style. It's the first book of hers that I read.
Call me crazy or whatever but I have a thing for Math. I actually love Maths. And always agree to "Smart is a new sexy" statement.
Let's get to the main characters, shall we?
Finn Clyde - MATH-guy. Blonde. Not good with words.
Bonnie Shelby - Celeb? Singer. Famous sure, her twin sister's dead got the best of hers.
Yes, that's what connects them. Both of their twins are dead. Finn wasn't a rich guy but Bonnie is. And Bonnie who is so 'enough' of her pretentious famous life, she ran away. Which starts the journey of Bonnie and Clyde. I know, it's perfect right?
A travel to Infinity + One ok?
“Why do most flowers have five petals? Why are honeycombs shaped like hexagons? Why do numbers have corresponding colors? He was eight before he realized not everyone saw the colors.
Numbers also had weight. When he multiplied them, the numbers swirled in his head like a blizzard in a child’s snow globe, the answers settling in his mind softly, just like the snowflakes, as if gravity were responsible for the solution. As he got older, the fascination with the patterns nature presented grew into a fascination for probability, using mathematical formulas to predict outcomes. And his predictions became eerily accurate. So much so that he could handily beat anyone at chess, poker, or even games that seemed governed by chance. There was no such thing as chance to Finn. Chance could be analyzed, sliced, diced, and pegged using a little brain power.”
See? Finn is brilliant man. He's totally brainy and I FALL FOR HIM. And goodness, Amy Harmon rock this!
Bonnie was awake, but just barely. Her eyelids were at half-mast and her hair, wet when she went to bed, looked as if she’d spent a wild night doing all the things he wished they’d done.
“Bonnie Rae, you’ve got a visitor downstairs. And if you don’t show your face right away, he’s going to kill me. And it won’t be a quick death. It will be a mauling. Do you understand?”
“Huh?”
“Bear’s here, and he’s loaded for . . . well, bear.”
“Bear’s here?” she shot straight up in bed, immediately awake, and made for the door, bare legs flying, oversized T-shirt slipping off her slim shoulders.
“Bonnie!” She halted and turned in question. “If you want me to live, pull on some pants and do something with your hair. Please.
So, who is Bear? Is that a nick name? Is that a ... I have no idea XP
Bear stalked after him, and Bonnie was right on Bear’s heels.
“Who the hell do you think you are?” Bear was practically breathing down his back.
“I’m nobody,” Finn said, opening cupboards until he found his father’s coffee can. Same brand as he used to drink.
“You got that right, man. And what makes you think I’m going to let Bonnie Rae spend another minute with a piece of shit like you?”
“Bear!” Bonnie stepped between the two men, sensing both were about to explode. But Finn held himself in check. He didn’t blame the guy. He couldn’t blame him. He knew exactly how it must look, and he knew how he felt. And Bonnie’s feelings were written all over her face. She liked him. He didn’t know why, but she did. And if Finn could see it, Bear could too.
“He’s an ex-con with a swastika on his chest and prison tats all over his back, Rae! What are you thinking?”
“I’m thinking you need to sit down, Bear. You need to back off. Now.” Bonnie pointed at one of the kitchen chairs, and Bear growled but did as she commanded. He was a well-trained Bear
