Queen B’s Decree: This storyline had so much promise. A couple who meets in juvie only to be separated but after time are reunited and have a happy ending.
That is not what happened in Only Ever You.
Zeta and Ryder meet in juvie, except Zeta’s crime is fake and Ryder’s crime is horrifically real. If you can get past his actions and continue on, not surprisingly they are separated…for her own good. Thanks for including Zeta in the decision making, Ryder! Then in a super not believable way, Ryder is now a rock star and Zeta is a reporter for a rock star magazine so their paths cross again.
I’m going to be totally frank here. Ryder was one of the most disgusting characters to read. His actions that led him to juvie, the man-whoring, the cheating right in Zeta’s face (that is excused because mental illness??). Honestly I’m not sure how I finished.
But if you love angst and can deal with all my hard stops, Siobhan Davis is a wonderful author who inspires so much emotion in me. Just not this time.
