Once Beyah settles in, Sara and her boyfriend, Marcos, begin trying to set her up with their friend Samson.

He has so many secrets that he promises to tell her before she leaves, but she’s not sure leaving is even what she wants anymore. Why would it matter what kind of family you have, or how rich you are, or what the people in your past meant to you before I showed up? Never a dull moment but yes, the explicit scenes go on and on and on like it fills up some chapters entirely towards the second half of the book when all I needed was answers and more character development and secret revelations. samson broke down her guard and helped her realize her true worth which i think was so important and a turning point in the story! I wish it could’ve been longer because there was so much to explore near the end but I did like the unique storyline and the heroine’s journey in discovering love and family.

Her father is absent, her mother is an addict, the trailer she lives in with her mother is in shambles, and she's working at McDonald's trying to make enough money just to eat.

So she joins her father and her new stepmother and stepsister to a beach house on a Texas peninsula.Beyah on the ferry on the way to the beach house meets Samson, young, beautiful, womanizing and rich, but she can tell that he is just as broken as she is. you did it again :') I kept hearing how underrated this book was and I didn't understand that until this very moment. he loved her for how she was and thought of her as perfect despite how she struggled with her weight.

Eventually, the tone darkens and the story narrows to focus on Jude as the pain of his past cuts deep into his carefully constructed life. Samson and Beyah seem to be from totally different worlds, but they're more alike then one would think. Heart Bones is a story with an incredible prose, interesting characters with secrets you won't guess, and a truly stunning love story when it comes down to it. Her next door neighbor is rich boy Samson, who hides behind his camera with his secrets and mysteries.Even with the main character's unusual backstory, this feels more like a regular new adult romance than anything else. There aren’t even many markers of what’s happening in the outside world; Jude moves to a loft in SoHo as a young man, but we don’t see the neighborhood change from gritty artists’ enclave to glitzy tourist destination. Even though pieces of me resemble pieces of them, I’ve never felt like I’ve belonged to either one of them. So, when her mother dies of an overdose and she's forced to move into a beach house on the coast in Texas with her estranged father and his new family, she's thrown into a whole new life - one where she can spend her days on the beach, not worrying about where her next meal will come from.
