The Saint by Kelsey Clayton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
She's heaven sent but together we're going to burn in hell."
The Saint is the second book in Kelsey Clayton's Haven Grace Prep series and is the story of Knox and Delaney. This series has captured my heart and Clayton is quickly moving up my list of top authors with each new release. Knox and Delaney bring new meaning to the term opposites attract and it makes for an addictive page turner. This is high school drama. rivalry, and angst at it's best.
Knox is the resident bad boy. He's gorgeous. Dangerous. A football star. Wanted by everyone and tamed by none. The complete opposite of Delaney. He thinks he's no good for her and knows he should stay away, but there's something there in her eyes when he talks to her. A little spark of mischief. An undeniable connection that near can deny.
Delaney is a rich girl from Haven Prep on her way to being valedictorian. She's sweet and innocent but also wants just a bit of excitement in her life and Knox brings that in spades. She's tired of doing what is expected and jumps in head first to explore the butterflies she gets in her stomach every time Knox is around.
These two together are absolute perfection and what a pleasant surprise they both were. Their character development was amazing. Delaney had this quiet strength about her. She was tough as nails when faced with bias towards Knox yet still so sweet and loving. She went after what she wanted despite it all. Knowing that Knox felt so deeply yet tried so hard to hide it and push Delaney away was upsetting, so seeing him come to accept his feelings and act on them was a beautiful thing. Knox being in the situation he was in, showed just how big his heart was all along.
This opposites attract, romantic suspense is an absolute must read. It was full of surprises and kept me eagerly turning the pages. Kelsey Clayton has a way with words and I felt all of them in The Saint in my soul. This book surpassed all of my expectations. It broke my heart and put it back together.
