Résumé :
Morgan Grant and her sixteen-year-old daughter, Clara, would like nothing more than to be nothing alike.
Morgan is determined to prevent her daughter from making the same mistakes she did. By getting pregnant and married way too young, Morgan put her own dreams on hold. Clara doesn’t want to follow in her mother’s footsteps. Her predictable mother doesn’t have a spontaneous bone in her body.
With warring personalities and conflicting goals, Morgan and Clara find it increasingly difficult to coexist. The only person who can bring peace to the household is Chris—Morgan’s husband, Clara’s father, and the family anchor. But that peace is shattered when Chris is involved in a tragic and questionable accident. The heartbreaking and long-lasting consequences will reach far beyond just Morgan and Clara.
While struggling to rebuild everything that crashed around them, Morgan finds comfort in the last person she expects to, and Clara turns to the one boy she’s been forbidden to see. With each passing day, new secrets, resentment, and misunderstandings make mother and daughter fall further apart. So far apart, it might be impossible for them to ever fall back together.

Mon avis :
J'étais beaucoup trop impatiente de découvrir le petit dernier de CoHo... aussi ai-je craqué pour sa version en VO.
Quand je commence un roman de l'auteure, je ne suis jamais vraiment très inquiète. Je sais que je vais passer un bon moment de lecture.
Bien sûr, celle-ci n'a pas fait exception.
Comme toujours les sujets sont forts, percutants. J'ai vraiment été happée dans l'histoire de Morgan et Clara. J'ai été soufflée par les révélations et terriblement tourmentée par les non-dits et les incompréhensions qui s'installent dans tout le récit.
Morgan, cette maman au foyer qui s'est effacée toute sa vie au profit de sa famille doit subir un brutal réveil et réapprendre à vivre en dehors de sa routine. Clara voit ses repères et ses certitudes éclater sans prévenir. Voilà un contexte qui bouleverse le lecteur !
Les personnages sont touchants, plein de reliefs et attachants. J'ai adoré Miller et Jonah, j'ai haï (oui haï) Chris et Jenny.
Et bien sûr la plume de Colleen Hoover fait son effet. Précise, délicate, incisive, percutante. Elle transcrit les scènes et les émotions avec une justesse folle !
Encore un excellent roman !
