Blog Tour ~ Objective by K Larsen ~ Review


My story started out cliche, good girl falls for bad boy, but one wrong move changed 

all that. Turns out the good girl doesn’t save the bad boy. My story goes from cliche to 

risque to mind blowing. My story is different from all the others because the events of 

my story led me to one thing...my objective.

Remembering him comes in dreams and flashbacks that I can't control. I tell myself it’s 

time to let go...but moving on from him is impossible when I still see our lives in my 

head.

When you kill your soul mate you don’t ever really recover. 

A year of trying to forget or rather move past it has taught me that you can't. Its an 

impossibility to move on from that kind of horrific form of betrayal. If you you’re too 

selfish or scared for suicide, like me, you learn to wake up every morning and follow 

routine. One foot in front of the other, day after day. 

Hollow. Lifeless. Haunted. Loving him was like the sun on a summer day. Living without 

him is like slowly burning to death. Torture.

*Note Tug of War is the 1st in the Bloodlines books, each book can be read as a stand

EXCERPT:

There are exactly five people in this town that know me, or of me. My neighbor Bentley,

the bouncer where I work, Brock, the pimply faced kid who works the late shift at the

liquor store, the chick at the Knight’s Super Foods who always seems to be working

when I go in and Penny, the manager at the club who hired me. It’s just enough people

to be safe and few enough to avoid drawing any attention to myself. I’m not a hermit.

I just don’t like people all that much anymore. I suppose if shown a picture in a line-up

some of the gym junkies where I box with Brock would be able to say ‘yeah, I’ve seen

her’ but I doubt they’d remember my name. I like my quiet life. No distractions. It allows

me to keep my eyes open and to stay alert and watch for the real danger. It’s not easy

being paranoid and afraid all the time. Somewhere over the last year I went from feeling

non-stop sorrow and bone-crushing guilt to rage. Pure hate. It fills me. It drives me now.

I train because of it. I stay alert because of it. And I will achieve my objective because

of it. Ezra will come for me. I realize he is the only thing keeping my hurt around. It was

his fault. It still is and yet, I’m the one paying. I gave up my life, my love, my soul. Ezra

has to pay and I am determined to make it happen, on my terms. I just have to stay alive

long enough to kill him first. I have to do this. He ruined my life. I have nothing. I am

nothing. I want it done as soon as possible. I’ve bided my time for so long now. Then I

will forget. I will begin my life and I will forget that I ever knew him.

Ramblings . . .

Wow. What a storyline . . .

The plot thickens. This is not a smooth ride. Bumps lace the road. Objective is not a hearts and flowers book. Magnolia is running from her past. A past bloodied and buried in brutal memories. What starts out as a sweet high school romance gets twisted up in a dirty mess. Magnolia and Cane should have lived out their romance as purely as it begun but that wasn't the case. Brutal reality hits hard and tragedy tears them apart.

Alone and grieving, with only the road as her companion, Magnolia seeks a safe haven far from her roots. Scared to let anyone in, in fear of getting them caught up in her twisted life. A change is necessary. In drastic times, drastic changes are needed. Adapt or die.

All I wanted for her was for her to find a peaceful place. To build a relationship with someone new and let go of her painful past. That is not the case. As I said, this is not a sappy story. Besides the gut-wrenching flashbacks that we share. The sadness of her perfect life as it once was.

Full of surprises, this book will keep you guessing. Objective is a dark story that will leave you feeling empty, scared and unsettled for the main character. It connects with the reader.

If you want something different then give Objective a go.
