Echo Emerson was the perfect girl with the perfect boyfriend
and popular friends. Then the "event" happened and when she
finally returned to school she'd retreated into the non-
sociable shell of the perfectly obedient teen. The one thing
she wanted most was the one thing she'd lost forever. Her
old normal.
Noah Hutchins is the black leather jacket, girl using faster
kid that everyone avoids. He's got a bad attitude and worse
language. He lost his parents in a fire and his brothers to
the "system". No one is in his corner and he'll even have
the one thing he craves the most. His old normal.
When Echo and Noah are paired up by their school therapist
their differences collide as forcefully as their resentful
words. When they accept that working within the system is
the best way to get what they want they also discover a new
understanding of each other. That understanding blooms into
a partnership that could bloom into a new normal if they
could learn to trust someone. Perhaps each other?
Ms. McGarry took me on an emotional journey of grief and
guilt, loss and love. Pushing The Limits pulled me
immediately into the lives of Echo and Noah. Unable to put
it down until I finished reading at 4:00 Am I thoroughly
enjoyed this book. I smiled. I laughed. I cried. I ugly
cried. I loved every passionately planned word of this page
turner.
Content warning: This book includes cussing, drug and
alcohol use, and discussions about teen sex. Each topic is
handled well as these high school students learn to make the
right choices.
No one knows what happened the night Echo Emerson went from popular girl with jock boyfriend to gossiped-about outsider with "freaky" scars on her arms. Even Echo can't remember the whole truth of that horrible night. All she knows is that she wants everything to go back to normal. But when Noah Hutchins, the smoking-hot, girl-using loner in the black leather jacket, explodes into her life with his tough attitude and surprising understanding, Echo's world shifts in ways she could never have imagined. They should have nothing in common. And with the secrets they both keep, being together is pretty much impossible. Yet the crazy attraction between them refuses to go away. And Echo has to ask herself just how far they can push the limits and what she'll risk for the one guy who might teach her how to love again.
