Carrie Soto Is Back: From the author of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo (California dream (crossover) serie, 4)

Product Information

I know for a lot of people she never left, but after really loving a couple of her earlier books, I have been disappointed by Daisy Jones & The Six and Malibu Rising. The format in the former didn't work for me (I very much like to be immersed in a story) and I don't know what was going on in the latter but it didn't hold my attention. These are the types of novels to read if you're looking to be swept away by a dazzling, entertaining story with fascinating characters Cosmopolitan At thirty-seven years old, Carrie makes the monumental decision to come out of retirement and be coached by her father for one last year in an attempt to reclaim her record. Even if the sports media says that they never liked “the Battle Axe” anyway. Even if her body doesn’t move as fast as it did. And even if it means swallowing her pride to train with a man she once almost opened her heart to: Bowe Huntley. Like her, he has something to prove before he gives up the game forever.

This is not just a sports book. There are more layers hidden inside it. It is a story of true love between a father and his daughter. Their bond reminded me of the amazing bond between Richard Williams and his daughters Venus and Serena, who are true legends in the game of tennis. At one point in the novel, I felt deja vu when I read the conversation between Carrie and her father. It reminded me of the words of Maria Sharapova about her father, Yuri Sharapova, and the amazing bond they shared between them. She once said," My father Yuri believes in miracles, and so do I." This book also shows the battle of egos between the players and the race for winning grand slams and breaking records. It might feel a bit slow at times, especially the transcripts but it's so worth it. The ending was so satisfying.

At thirty-seven years old, Carrie makes the monumental decision to come out of retirement and be coached by her father for one last year in an attempt to reclaim her record. Even if the sports media says that they never liked “the Battle-Axe” anyway. Even if her body doesn’t move as fast as it did. And even if it means swallowing her pride to train with a man she once almost opened her heart to: Bowe Huntley. Like her, he has something to prove before he gives up the game forever. She also then decides that she was going to be the best. Period. EVERYONE will know her name. And like her or not, she's going to MAKE IT. I think this is my favourite Taylor Jenkins Reid book so far, my love for her writing just grows with every single novel that I read. I wondered why anyone would want to build anything out of sand, when tomorrow it will be gone, and you'd have nothing to show for your day. What It’s About: Stepping away from Reid’s Hollywood, One True Lovestakes place in modern day Massachusetts. It follows high school sweethearts Emma and Jesse. After Jesse goes missing in a helicopter accident, Emma attempts to rebuild her life, and even falls in love again. She seems to have found her happily ever after despite her grief… Until Jesse is found. Alive.
