Haven's Knight

3.5 stars !!!This novel was a rollercoaster ride of emotions. It touched on such a deep topic that made it emotional.What I like most about Haven's Knight was the writing. From the first sentence, it immediately took hold of my attention and captured me into a world of sadness and pain. I felt so much for Haven as a character.However as much as it pains me to say this ... after a while to story fell completely flat. The shocking reality and rawness that was the beginning of the novel disappeared leaving something unrealistic and too hard to be believe. After a while even the characters became one dimensional. One thing that started to annoy me was Damien's POV; it was thrown into the story at odd and awkward times which made them pointless. And every time the POV switched you were thrown back moments and even days before the present event taking place in the story which became frustrating. Grants reasons for his hatred for Haven was poorly explained. At one point it was discovered that he blamed Haven for her mothers death but that wasn't a correct way to explain why he repeatedly beat her for seven years prior to the mothers death. I felt it was a story plot that lacked any real thought or development. Also the ending rubbed me the wrong way. I didn't understand how and/or why the author choose to have Grant shoot up the school, again another plot to the story with holes. It just didn't add up. Also the fact that Mark intentionally took another life like he was above the law rubbed me the wrong way. I'm all for justice and evil beings getting what they deserved but to allow these young characters to take a life and make the reader think it's okay, that it's acceptable didn't work for me. It could have been implied but it should have never been explained and made to look like it was justified. But that's just me ...Overall, this was a good novel. The writing was great, Haven's character was well written and developed. The ended fell weak. I will most likely give the author another chance and read another novel from her.

Haven had a good childhood until it was ripped away in a moment. The last seven years she has endured her existence in a shell of her former self. She is trying to just get by day to day and all the bad stuff she has to live with, hopefully will soon be a thing of the past once she hits eighteen.Damien Knight has his own secrets, he recognizes something in Haven he has never seen in another person. Damien is the schools bad boy, the guy who sleeps with the girls with zero commitment and that will never change. Damien decides as much as Haven has rebuffed his interest, he is going to find out what is going on and when he does he finds himself even more protective of her. Can two people so lost find a future no one saw coming?This is a tissue book for sure. I thought it was powerful and I was surprised that the Haven-Damien connection is not instant. Everything is gradual and builds with each turn of the page. Excellent read.

I really enjoyed this book. I cried several times and was on the edge of my seat a lot this story was well. Written. It is not for faintest at heart.

This was a really good but at times heartbreaking story. Haven had a pretty happy family life and she had a really good life until the day her father died. Her mother did her best to hide her grief in alcohol and drugs and lost caring about Haven. When she was 10 years old, her mother brought home a man that became Haven's nightmare. He used to beat up on her all the time and her mother just turned a blind eye and not caring. When people would start questioning things, they would move and Haven did her best to just be invisible and make it out alive. The most recent move causes her to become friends with one guy and being paid attention by another.Definitely worth reading.

Haven’s Knight is a well rounded book. The two main characters were fleshed out, and all the characters had individual personalities that strengthen relationships and made the story believable. The emotions expressed and internalized were realistic and organized smoothly. Events and plot lined up. Writing is clear, organized and engaging. I did not become attached to the characters, but thats on me.- The book is mostly shown, not told.- Trigger warning. School shootings, abuse, hospitals, death etc.

I did find the story repetitious at times with Haven's thoughts repeating over and over.One reviewer made a comment about the shooting that occurred by Mark. After reading that review and then reading the story I have to wonder if she read the same book I did. After reading all the pain and suffering the "bad guy" cause and the circumstances of the shooting I 'm not sure too many people wouldn't have taken the same stance.My overall thought is this is a good book with a 4 star rating

I was excited to rad this book. I thought overall the book s a good read. Damien and Haven have a nice story. Haven battles abuse from Grant. I was disappointed that the story at the end is really rushed.

I just love this story. It follows the troubles of a young girl named Haven who is just trying to make it through her senior year of high school. She slowly befriends a classmate and then two. I don't want to give too much away. It has drama, tragedy, and romance. Everything that I like in a book. The story towards the end was so good that I couldn't put it down until I found out what would happen. I love her stories and can't wait to see what else she will bring out.

There is a good idea in there somewhere but it needs a lot more work. The story jumps about and is badly edited. Vocabulary is limited and often repeated.

Amazing started following Regan Ure's work on wattpad, love her stories.

Very good

This is one of the best book I ever read. It's very emotional and sad, but I still love the romance between the main characters.

I would recommend giving it a shot I have read other books by the same author and would definitely read anything she does!!
