![]() ![]() Canyon sets his sights on ripping apart his father’s new happiness and the closet target is the new fiance’s son, Alis. Webster is great at capturing all the normal teenage angst along with all the emotions of a devastating blow such as this. Pretty much beyond angry and lashes out in drastic measures. The heartfelt tenderness, emotional agony, and overall angst that she brings out in her characters is so compelling it draws me in every single time that even though I burn through the pages, I never want to leave.įeuds and Reckless Fury is about two boys who would appear to be complete opposites, but inside may be more alike than they think.Ĭanyon in the beginning has a girlfriend, is a football player and comes from a traditional family – his life falls apart before his senior year, when his father leaves – not for another woman, but for a man.
