Happiness In Jersey

Written by Jacinta Howard

Narrated by Wesleigh Siobhan

The only thing in Jersey Kincaid's world that she has time for are keeping her grades up so that she doesn't lose her scholarship to South Texas University, playing the bass in her band, The Prototype, and satisfying her coffee addiction. Oh, and the occasional random hook-up she indulges in to pass the time.

Love? Eh, not so much. Save that crap for a Katherine Heigl or Natalie Portman movie.

Jersey's seen enough in life (courtesy of her Pops) to realize that undying romance is nothing more than a myth used to sell books and movie tickets. As she knows too well, the only thing inevitable in life is death-love is definitely not promised.

That's why when Jersey meets Isaiah "Zay" Broussard, with his soulful gray eyes, quick wit, and easy charm, she's determined to remain aloof. She doesn't have time to get sidetracked by fleeting fantasies, even if she does feel an unexplainable connection to Zay she's never experienced before.

But when his interest in her only seems to intensify, despite her attempts to brush him off, she gets to see a side of him and herself she didn't expect . . .

Title: Happiness in JerseyAuthor: Jacinta HowardPublisher: J.H. Series: The Prototype Book 1Reviewed By: Arlena DeanRating: FiveReview:"Happiness in Jersey" by Jacinta HowardMy Rationalization:I enjoyed 'Happiness in Jersey' story that featured Jersey Kincaid and Zay Broussard even though I felt that the read started off a little slow, however, it did pick up. I found most of the characters likable from Jersey who was in the band with her band friends: Devin, Travis, Bam and lastly Zay who just happened to be Travis's cousin. Also, I don't want to leave our Jersey's friend Willow. This story was deep and profound in that we see that poor Jersey hadn't had a great life after the death of her mom [suicide] and living with her father who drank hadn't been great either. We find that Zay had also experienced some tragic in his life losing his sister and brother in an accident.Meeting Zay was definitely one great thing to happen to Jersey [Kitten, Baby Doll] as Jay referred to her. I will say it took some time for these two to come together but with Zay's patience, he was truly there for Jersey in all she was going through. I loved how Zay was there to fight for Jersey's love.At times Jersey got on my last nerve being so trying, but when it all came down she finally learns just whom she can trust and love realizing just who was there for her through the thick and thin in all that was going her with her life especially when it related to her father. I will say it was hard seeing the way her father treated her. If you are looking for a good love story with a little bit of it from 'pain, loss, moving on, not letting ones past define you, effect of some good music and then by the end realizing that love is worth the risk' then you should pick up "Happiness in Jersey" to see how well this author brings it all out to the reader.
