The Law of Henna and Bodhi:


When love breaks, fall inward, fall together, and fall hard. Then let time pick up the pieces.
Everything feels temporary when you’ve experienced tragedy—until Henna Lane meets Bodhi at a music festival.

Young and spontaneous, they have a lust for seizing the moment, falling hard and fast.
When Bodhi is forced to leave without a goodbye, Henna thinks she’ll never get over him. But then she meets Mr. Malone, her sexy, new guidance counselor.

They are reckless.

They are forbidden.

When their secret is discovered, Henna has to choose between finishing school—banned from seeing Mr. Malone—or dropping out to follow her nomad dreams.

Henna chooses her dreams.

Over time, she learns that life is not a destination or a journey, some things are more than temporary, and the forbidden can never be ignored. But if she returns for him, will he still be hers?
A Place Without You is an emotional story of young love, shattered dreams, and impossible decisions.

REVIEW:


3.5-3.75 stars
***


This was a pretty good book. This is Bodhi and Henna's book. As always with this author, there are some major twists so I don't want to spoil anything plotwise. I will say, it has a lot going on and is a bit schizophrenic. This book is part insta-connection/near insta-love, part high school student and guidance counselor romance, and part illness/impending death of a parent book.

I liked Bodhi and Henna. When they meet, Henna is 19 and, due to a health issue delaying her schooling, is about to enter her senior year of high school. Bodhi is 26, a high school guidance counselor (although Henna doesn't know that until later) and is running himself ragged running his family farm and taking care of his ailing father. I liked them both, although Henna has a few moments throughout the book of immaturity and naivety. The two have a tumultuous romance spanning years with leaving, separations, pushing away, hurting each other, and coming back together. They go through a lot together and on their own. It was a little bit much for me and a little too much drama. I liked both characters so much and I really felt like they had a soulmate connection. They were definitely meant to be together and were sweet and sexy. I felt bad for them to have to go through so much and wanted them to have a simpler romance.

Still, I enjoyed the book and the story in general. I was entertained and it kept my attention. The writing was good. So, while this book was not my favorite by this author, it was still a pretty good read. I still enjoy Ms. Ann's books and look forward to what she comes up with in the future.
