Micah thought he had it from his relationship with his ex-boyfriend. Even then, love was the goal, the life-changing gift. He’d soaked it up like a sponge growing up, letting it shape him even when he’d already known that in his case, love would never be as it was portrayed in the mass media he was waiting for Prince Charming rather than looking for a beautiful princess. Love, the ultimate happiness as depicted in a thousand movies, in books, in every other song on the radio. He had this perfect fantasy of a great love having seen it with his parents and with his sister, Claudia, and her steady relationship with a high-school sweetheart. It tells the story of Micah who has given up his dream of a happily ever after years ago after still having hang-ups from his first relationship.

But boy was I glad I took a chance because Kate Fierro just wiped out my bad reading week with this book.Īnd I think this is what Love Starved is all about – taking chances.

I had a seriously bad reading streak this week so I thought I had finally gone insane when I decided to end the week with a new author’s debut novel.
