Elite by Carrie Aaarons is an edgy new adult romance that I couldn't put down!
Eloise Mason has big dreams of becoming a famous chef, but before she finishes her schooling, she wants to live one semester in America living life abroad, and since she has the means to do it, she does. She may come off as a spoiled rich girl, but she is nothing like this. Eloise as we get to know her more (we did meet her in Privileged) is very down to earth and I adored her character, and her ability to know right from wrong, and to protect the ones she truly cares about.
On her first night on campus, she runs into Colton, the big basketball star on campus, and she shuts him down. She's intrigued by him, but she doesn't want to get involved, but that only drives him to want her more. Everywhere Eloise ends up, she ends up running into Colton, and these two getting together becomes inevitable. The chemistry between them is undeniable, and the banter between them is hilarious. I couldn't wait to see what they would be like once Eloise finally gave in, and let me tell you, it was amazing. Once she stopped fighting him, it was awesome. They may be complete opposites, but they balance one another out, and they may actually be more similar than they think.
Both of these characters have a lot going on, and watching Colton struggle with decisions he's made, and Eloise helping him was hard. He's messed up, but watching Eloise, understand and then work on helping him, was beautiful and truly showed what kind of person she was. When she was in trouble, and the sacrifices he made to help her.. it made my heart break and happy all at once. It showed just how amazing his character truly is.
I adored watching Colton and Eloise come together in this book and watch their relationship grow, but I also loved watching the two of them grow as individuals. This was a beautiful tale of right and wrong, growing up, and finding the person you belong with and doing everything you can to support and love them. The only thing I wish was that we would have seen what happened with the stuff Eloise was dealing with at the end of her time in school, as I felt that part of the story was left a little bit unfinished and glossed over, but other than that it was a beautiful story. I adored Colton, even with all of his "flaws". If you're looking for an edgy and raw new adult romance, then you need to pick up Elite by Carrie Aarons today!
