5.0 out of 5 stars The book is set in a fun and sexy setting that will inevitably cause amusing chaos
Reviewed in Canada on September 1, 2016

Scorched follows Andrea and Tanner's tumultuous relationship that is filled with verbal sparring, miscommunication, and very real issues. Trigger warning for alcoholism.

Armentrout portrays alcoholism in a very real manner. The reader can't help but be frustrated with the main character, while also understanding her motivations. The book is set in a fun and sexy setting that will inevitably cause amusing chaos.

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this short novel about a woman struggling with alcoholism, balancing her social life, and falling in love with an incredibly swoon worthy guy.

With the exception of the alcoholism, I actually really related to Andrea. Especially with the negative self-talk. Now if only men and sex could really be like that in real life!

The book itself isn't bad. Story wise but why is the back for a totally different book?? I definitely wasn't willing to spend $20 on a misprinted book so I had no choice but to ask for a refund.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exceeded my expectations
Reviewed in Brazil on August 7, 2016

I wasn't really sure about what to expect from this book... I didn't read the synopsis and the first chapter was challenging for me to get situated. But slowly I realized Andrea was a sweet but troubled girl and Tanner was a loving patient boy very much worried with her.
Don't get me wrong, this is not just a simple ordinary love history of a hot guy with a troubled girl. The book explores her demons much as much as it explores the love that raise between the two of them.

I won't write *spolers* but Andrea has two major problems that are explored... and Tanner is very supportive.
This is one of the books that I often recommend to my friends!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Win from Jen Armentrout
Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2015

It's no secret that Jen Armentrout is one of my all time favorite authors. And she has yet another hit on her hands with Scorched. But this book is special, and let me tell you why. It has a great message in it and really makes you think and reflect on your own life. First, it's important to remember that just because someone might smile or laugh and be happy on the outside, doesn't necessarily mean that is how they feel on the inside. We all have our stories, and we don't tell them to everyone. And that's why it's important to find those people that you can tell your story to, and let inside. You need to find those people that you can tell anything and everything to, who won't judge you for anything, and will always stick by your side. Yes, it's extremely difficult to find those people, but they are out there. Most importantly, we need to remember to listen . And this isn't just to their words, but to their silent calls for help or what have you. It's important to remember to not make snap judgements of people and always treat people with respect because you don't actually know what they are going through at any given time. Sometimes a simple smile or an ear to truly listen (but not respond or offer advice) is all a person needs.

This book hits on a lot of difficult topics, ones that are usually kept hush hush in society. And I applaud Jen for incorporating them into this book in an extremely realistic way. Many people will be able to relate to Andrea in some way or another, and that makes her special in a way that words can't describe. Jen reminds all of us with this book that there is light at the end of the tunnel and there is always hope. You have to hold onto that hope, and have it serve as your anchor.

While the first part of this story is lighter, the second part really delves deep and is much much more serious. While reading the first part, you can pretty much tell what's going to happen between Tanner and Andrea. But in the second part, you don't know what will happen and where the story will go. I loved this aspect because it kept it interesting and you become very invested in finding out what will happen at the end of this book. You can't deny the chemistry between Tanner and Andrea, and I loved their relationship. It certainly was steamy, but obviously perfectly written (come on...this is Jen we're talking about! She could write a phone book and it would be amazing!) As I said, Andrea is an extremely relatable character, and she is very realistic. Tanner is a sexy fireman (about to become a cop), and is the perfect match for Andrea in every way. They have a nice balance with each other, and match each others teasing every step of the way. They definitely had some very cute and funny moments!

I highly recommend reading this book. You will not be disappointed! If you're a fan of Jen or have never picked up one of her books, this is a must read. The beauty truly lies in the fact that everyone will take away something from this book and if that doesn't show you how amazing this is, I don't know what will.

Happy reading :)

Meinung
Armentrout schafft es einfach immer wieder Liebesromane zu schreiben, die unglaublich witzig sind und gleichzeitig auch wirklich ernstere Themen ansprechen.

Inhalt
Der Inhalt erinnert sehr stark an Frigid, den ersten Band doch statt eines Wochenendtrips in ein Skiresort, verbringen die Protagonisten hier ihre Ferien am Pool. Zwischen den beiden Büchern lassen sich einige Gemeinsamkeiten feststellen, was jedoch nicht wundern sollte wenn man bedenkt, dass die Bücher von der gleichen Autorin mit den gleichen Charakteren geschrieben wurde.
Ihr müsst nicht den ersten Teil lesen um den zweiten zu verstehen, die Bücher können auch unabhängig voneinander verstanden werden :)

Das Buch ist mit 238 Seiten ziemlich kurz gehalten, lässt aber keine Fragen offen und hat nicht enttäuscht! Ich stehe solchen kurzen Büchern ja immer kritisch gegenüber, da viele Autoren einiges auslassen um so ein kompaktes Buch zu schreiben, Armentrout hat es trotz der kurzen Seitenanzahl geschafft eine befriedigende Geschichte zu schreiben.

Schreibstil
Armentrout enttäuscht einfach nicht wenn es um ihren Schreibstil geht, er ist unverkennbar und immer sehr angenehm und flüssig! Hätte ich auch nur einen Funken ihres Talentes wäre ich ein glücklicher Mensch!
Alle Charaktere ihrer Bücher haben eine irrsinnig gute Dynamik, was das Lesevergnügen ins unermessliche steigert, an sarkastischen Kommentaren wird nicht gespart und teilweise beschreibt sie Szenen auf eine so grandiose Art, dass ich sie mehrmals lesen musste und mir ein Lachen nicht verkneifen konnte.

Fazit
Ich kann das Buch absolut weiterempfehlen, es ist auf jeden Fall eines meiner Lieblinge der Autorin! Eine lustige Geschichte für Zwischendurch die auch ernstere Themen in Angriff nimmt, was wünscht man sich mehr?

5.0 out of 5 stars Scorched es más que un libro en el que dos jóvenes se rinden a la pasión y acaban enamorándose.
Reviewed in Spain on October 8, 2015

Scorched es más que un libro en el que dos jóvenes se rinden a la pasión y acaban enamorándose. Es más que el conocerse, caer rendidos ante la atracción y descubrir al otro como al amor de tu vida. Es mucho más. En Scorched la autora ahonda sobre temas tan serios y delicados como son la depresión y la ansiedad y el modo en que éstos pueden afectar y dirigir la vida de una persona, hasta tal punto de llevarla realmente al borde del abismo. La autora sabe tratar con infinita delicadeza y tacto estos aspectos que son tan serios y de los que la mayor parte de las personas tienen una idea equivocada. Con increíble destreza, la autora nos presenta cómo puede llegar a ser la mente de una persona que está sufriendo estos problemas psicológicos y el modo en que le pueden afectar y gobernar su vida de forma implacable.

Siempre me ha encantado el modo de escribir de JLA, pero es en libros como éste, cuando una autora demuestra realmente lo que vale. El gusto, tacto y delicadeza que demuestra al tratar temas tan serios como la depresión y la increíble forma que tiene de meternos en la mente de una persona que sufre tanto y de la manera en que lo hace Andrea, son lo que realmente hacen que te des cuenta de que te encuentras ante una escritora que realmente sabe lo que hace. Es fácil escribir sobre el amor, la atracción y demás, pero desde mi punto de vista no es nada fácil escribir sobre problemas psicológicos y, lo más importante, tratarlos de manera adecuada y correcta. Y JLA lo hace a la perfección.

Scorched es un libro que aparte de enamorarte, hace que te des cuenta de la cantidad de gente que hay ahí fuera sufriendo sin que nosotros nos demos cuenta. Es un libro para disfrutar, soñar con el amor, pero también para pensar y ser conscientes de que a nuestro alrededor hay mucha gente pidiendo ayuda silenciosamente.
