Sacred By Elana K. Arnold

Growing up on Catalina Island, off the California coast, Scarlett Wenderoth has led a fairly isolated life. After her brother dies, her isolation deepens as she withdraws into herself, shutting out her friends and boyfriend. Her parents, shattered by their own sorrow, fail to notice Scarlett's pain and sudden alarming thinness. Scarlett finds pleasure only on her horse, escaping to the heart of the island on long, solitary rides. One day, as she races around a bend, Scarlett is startled by a boy who raises his hand in warning and says one word: "Stop."

The boy—intense, beautiful—is Will Cohen, a newcomer to the island. For reasons he can't or won't explain, he's drawn to Scarlett and feels compelled to keep her safe. To keep her from wasting away. His meddling irritates Scarlett, though she can't deny her attraction to him. As their relationship blossoms into love, Scarlett's body slowly awakens at Will's touch. But just when her grief begins to ebb, she makes a startling discovery about Will, a discovery he's been grappling with himself. A discovery that threatens to force them apart. And if it does, Scarlett fears she will unravel all over again.

REVIEW-5 stars

   Sacred is a story about Scarlett who has just suffered a great loss and is having trouble dealing with living.Will comes into the picture and somehow always shows up when she needs it.They have a connection that both feel very powerfully.This is the first book I have read by this author and cannot wait to read more.
   I really enjoyed this story.I feel it was a great read.I felt Scarlett's pain,I felt her sadness.I look very forward to reading book 2 when it is released.I cannot wait to see what choices are made and how the rest of the story plays out.Job well done Elana K. Arnold.Your story had me glued to it and that in my humble opinion is the sign of a Great Writer.
