I knew I was going to love River's story and loved it so much more than I thought possible. River has always been my favorite STD member. Hi comic relief has always been so entertaining but learning more about him and seeing him get his HEA was awesome!!!!
My poor River. After reading his story, it becomes so apparent how his humor and sarcasm is to cover so much of the pain that River has lived with for so many years. My heart broke for him. He was such an amazing guy, but because of his experiences from such a young age, he couldn’t see it. He wanted to play his drums and numb his life with whatever means he had available. Not only do we get a glimpse of his younger years, we also get more details behind the issue between him and his best friend, Finn, which was brought to light at the end of Finn’s story. For six years, he kept it secret that he was in love with a girl from Finn’s past and it caused resentment that he kept at bay until the accident that injured his hand.
Throughout the story, not only is he fighting with his demons, but he’s treading a thin line…at least what’s left of his friendship with Finn.
Keanna is a strong, confident woman (at least that’s what she’s been working hard to strive for) and gets the typical first impression anyone would get when they meet River. He’s a typical, cocky rockstar…but his confidence and blatant sexual attitude toward her made her tingle in all her naughty bits. Shoot, I couldn’t help but be curious myself. He’s funny and blasé about so much, but the more time she spends with him, the more she sees that there is so much to River that no one knows and she wants to help him. Not necessarily save him, but help him save himself. She gave him a strength he needed to overcome a horrific past that has plagued him with nightmares for so long that it’s been the cause for his constant self-medicating behavior. Keanna was an amazingly strong character and was exactly what River needed to find the peace he needed. She didn’t war with him about what he was dealing with. She told him how it was and left it to him to fix.
M.N. Forgy did an outstanding job of discussing topics that were dark and sad, but delivering it in a way that the story didn’t get weighed down. She managed to write a serious book, with important topics but in a way that maintained the lightness we get in a Forever Steel/Forever Four themed story. The guys of Steel Total Destruction round out the story with wonderful personalities that you can’t help but enjoy more and more as you meet them in the series.
