About this ebook
#1 New York Times bestselling author of It Starts with Us and It Ends with Us held readers spellbound with her novel Hopeless, the story of what happened when a troubled girl named Sky encountered a long-lost childhood friend, Dean. Now, in Losing Hope, we finally learn the truth about Dean Holder.
Haunted by the little girl he couldn’t save from imminent danger, Holder’s life has been overshadowed by feelings of guilt and remorse. He has never stopped searching for her, believing that finding her would bring him the peace he needs to move on. However, Holder could not have anticipated that he would be faced with even greater pain the moment they reconnected.
In Losing Hope, Holder reveals the way in which the events of Sky’s youth affected him and his family, leading him to seek his own redemption in the act of saving her. But it is only in loving Sky that he can finally begin to heal himself.

So much of this book is of Holder writing "letters". At one point, around 13 Chapters, in a single row, were all a paragraph or less. I feel like those chapters falsely made the book seem longer. So far... not worth the cost, and I have absolutely LOVED every other book of this author's. Disappointed.

I read Hopeless first then hesitated to read Losing Hope immediately afterwards thinking it would be just a repeat but from Holder's view. I am so glad that I went on to read it though. It gave the story so much more depth and intensity. Both books contained so much heartbreak and tragedy as well as passion and love. Definitely recommend.

Colleen Hoover is my favorite author hands down. Her originality puts her in a field on her own. The flow of the characters and their interactions add well as their dynamics are superb. Make sure you read Hopeless before you read this otherwise you'll be a bit lost.
