Jax Walker is a hard
man to resist. He’s tall, dark, and delicious. Harlow didn’t plan on falling
for another, with her heart still stuck on Iain. But it’s so hard with him
gone. And she’s been aching since they last touched. Two whole years of silent
wondering; of desperate sleepless longing. Fate, however, may have other plans.
Just as Harlow’s ready to open herself to new love, her whole world is pulled
into a twisting and painful spiral. In this new adult novel, readers are
consumed by the collision of past and present. Raw and dark, this emotional
minefield is the perfect second book in the continuing story of Harlow Jones.
Consumed is a follow on from book 1, Collide, following Harlow's footsteps and her feelings as she moves on to university life. Consumed and guilt written from her memories she finds it hard to move on. bottling everything up, she finds it hard to talk to people and is filled with anxiety. with a nasty blast from the not so distant past, can she uphold her mind and defeat the depression? or will she continue to wallow in self pity and hatred her whole university life?
Another fantastic read from JC Hannigan. This is eye opening and captivating from a young girl who suffers with mental health. A girl who struggles to live with a sordid and tainted past. It's mind blowing how this author is able to portray a girl living life riddled with anxiety.
Apart from a few times, when I found Harlow's attitude and thoughts to be frustrating I really enjoyed this amazing book. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Harlow Jones has a
troubled past, and a questionable future. Surrounded by death, tragedy, and
intrigue, she is forced to mature long before her time. Plagued by anxiety and
depression, she hides her inner turmoil with spite and sarcasm. Her thick skin
is impenetrable…or so she thought. Until she becomes involved with her grade
twelve English teacher. In this exclusive entry into the new adult genre, with
raw style that is as dark as it is poignant, Collide presents the ultimate
choice: forbidden love or doing the right thing.

After losing her best friend 1 year prior to moving, she fell deep into depression not feeling happy wherever she was. Will she find happiness up North? or will she suffer in silence?
What a wonderful story! Brings so much awareness to young girls like Harlow about depression and anxiety. it felt like I was reading my life but through another and shook me to my core. if I could give this 10* I would. beautifully written, amazingly put together With a range of different characters from lovely to nasty.
