Only the Negatives by Elle Thorpe 

The boy who once made my life a living hell is now the only way to save my family from living on the streets.  

I wish he’d just stayed wherever he’s been for the past four years. That is, blissfully out of my life and nowhere near our little country town. 

But in my weakest moment, he arrived like some knight in shining armour. One I never wanted or asked for. I should have run him down with my wheelchair. But I didn’t. I got in his car. And now I have to see his beautiful damn face every damn day.  

And that’s my worst nightmare. Because the things he once said can’t be unheard. The hell he put me through can’t be forgotten. The man he is now can’t be forgiven for the boy he once was. 

And yet, I want him.

 Elle has done it again and created another brilliant book for the Only You series! I think Only The Negatives is my favourite so far! Why? Gemma, the heroine of the story, she is so likeable and inspiring, she is determined, independent and doesn't let anything stop her.

This novel is an enemies to lovers story and is set 10 years on from the previous books in the series. Gemma we met briefly in Only The Positives as the younger sister of Reese. Gemma suffered a spinal injury after a riding accident at their families livery, leaving her wheelchair bound. One thing I loved about this book is that Gemma is such a strong female so determined to live her life to the best of her ability, to not let her non functional legs hold her back, and for people to see her and not her chair. This message shone throughout the book in so many ways! 

Adam Ryker is the Hero of the story, a guy from Gemma's past that started as a childhood friend, who she later begun to despise when Ryker was the reason Gemma's high school years were a living hell as a result of bullying. When Ryker turns up out of the blue in Gemma's life she wants nothing to do with him; but he is determined to make Gemma see things through his eyes, to prove to her he regrets it all and perhaps things weren't always as they seemed.

Gemma and Ryker's love hate relationship at the start of the book was fantastic, it amped up the chemistry and my curiosity level. I adored Gemma from the start and it didn't take long to realise I was going to love Ryker too. He is a guy that has penchant for making the bad decisions with a true heart and the best of intentions behind them. However most seem to have long lasting consequences, some coming back to haunt him.

Only the negatives is a well paced and wonderfully written novel, that was a joy to read. The central characters were likable, you wanted them to succeed and right their wrongs, plus seeing characters I loved from the rest of the series 10 years on was a nice bonus. I particularly enjoyed reading Ryker's POV of how events throughout his and Gemma's non-friendship stayed with him. Moments Gemma didn't realise he was there; but he was supporting her, caring for her, loving her before either of them knew how special they were to each other. I feel that Ryker and Gemma enhance each other and a Elle wrote two half's of a whole here. 

One thing I admire about Elle's writing is that she inserts elements in her novels that are very seldom seen in romance, utilising them in a way that enhances her characters and the story, in an empowering and motivational way. So I cannot wait to see what Bianca and Riley are going to bring next!

Author Bio 

Elle Thorpe lives on the sunny east coast of Australia, about an hour out of Sydney. When she's not writing stories full of kissing and chemistry, she's a wife, and Mummy to three tiny humans. She's also official ball thrower to one slobbery dog named Rollo. Yes, she named a female dog after a male character on Vikings. Don't judge her. Elle is a complete and utter fangirl at heart, obsessing over The Walking Dead and Outlander to an unhealthy degree. But she wouldn't change a thing.
