My Review:
So the story continues. The Donor Part 1
saw Casey Williams struggling for money, since an accident in her family
left them living in a trailer with no money for hospital bills or
college. Casey is introduced to MyTrueMatch.com by a work colleague.
Somewhere she can meet someone, who will pay her to spend time with
them. She just has to share herself with her match and she will have
some decent money. Which is going to come in handy since she also is
suffering with some nasty headaches and other symptoms, but can't afford
to go to the dr's. She needs this money badly and quickly. Thankfully,
she finds Jonah. They get to know each other online and arrange for
their first meeting.
Casey goes to stay with Jonah as
arranged, yet once there. Casey has a turn for the worst. It would seem
Casey is pretty bad off and Jonah had no idea. Luckily, Jonah is a
perfect match in many ways, he suggests a different arrangement for the
both if them, which is perfect. If only circumstances were different,
Jonah would of been literally Casey's True Match. Plus Jonah's
circumstances also make for quite a shock, when Casey realises what she
is actually there for.
So Part 2 continues straight on from the
last scene of part 1, Casey and Jonah agree on a longer term for her
stay with him. Jonah now knows the full circumstances of Casey's illness
and wants to help where he can. It would seem this is put to the test
as Casey's full symptoms rapidly start to progress and can be quite
debilitating. This second part, is more focused on Casey and her
struggle, and how Jonah helps her. Through some quite sad and harsh yet
real scenes Jonah continues to prove his support and kindness to Casey.
The Donor Part 1, was all about the intrigue. I was curious about
everything happening, who was Jonah, what was up with Casey. Basically
learning all about the characters and what their story and circumstances
were. Part 2 had a completely different feel, it now became more about
the pain and showing what Casey was going through. I felt it showed the
brutal and sad aspects of Casey and Jonah's story. Although it was
mostly about Casey's pain, we also find more out about Jonah. Why he is
what he is and how that came about. He also shares something of his
past, proving he trusts Casey and is willing to open up to her.
Considering the small about of time that has passed since the beginning
and the fact that it hasn't been quite like Casey expected. Jonah and
Casey have managed to get to know each other and find they are
comfortable in each other's company. They share some things in common
too, which helps. The underlying interest in aquatics. Jonah keeps
seahorses and for some unknown reason, they seem to be dying. Casey, has
always loved aquariums and visited one every year of her birthday, with
the dream to go to college to study marine biology. That is until her
life made a sudden and abrupt nosedive.
Just like Part 1 in this series, the
writing is beautiful and shows the raw and brutal picture of Casey and
Jonah's story. It remained captivating and enthralling as it flowed
straight through this next part. Although it would seem the outlook is
bleak, I still hold out the hope that something can happen. Something
big, to bring light on a really sad story. The possibility is there,
which is what I love about this series and the characters, there is
always the possibility that anything could happen. I never really know
what to expect and love the shock factor. It was something that I loved
in the Sunshine series by Author Nikki Rae. I never knew what was around
the corner, yet the journey was intriguing and emotional to get there.
Another fantastic part to this series. I'm unbelievably excited and curious about part 3!
Casey Williams and her
family are poor. Her parents work non-stop and so does she, just so they
can keep the trailer roof from leaking.
