I am a big fan of Amie's books, so I was very excited to get my hands on Beneath His Stars! Thanks to the author I was able to get an ARC to read and review. In Beneath His Stars we meet Livingston (Liv), a 16 year old who lives on the island with her stepmother and stepbrother. Liv doesn't feel like she fits in. It wasn't until a few years ago that her father was discovered as an artist and that got him a lot of money. Unfortunately he passed away and she's stuck with her stepmother. Adam Nova, is a 19 year old who lives on the mainland and just happens to run into Liv when a friend of his wants to hit on her. He doesn't know why but he feels protective. After losing his mother at a young age and his father suffering an injury making it impossible for him to work, he works and goes to school when he can. Beneath His Stars feels different than Amie's other books, because the characters are a bit younger. I loved this story though, even though I could smack the characters at times, haha. If only teenagers could think things through at times. Their connection was clear from the start. If only her stepmother would've thought that way. Even though Adam and Liv's worlds didn't seem the same, they worked. It's also clear there is a lot going on in the town they live in. As if things are done that shouldn't be happening. I definitely don't trust a few characters! That ending left me devestated!! I need the second part of this duology now!! The only reason it didn't get 5 stars from me was that I would've loved just a bit more depth with some of the characters. I know it's a duology, so there's still more to come, but I think even more hints at what was going to happen at the end would've given more of a buildup. Once again Amie did create another set of characters I've grown to love! This author has a way with words that really makes you feel things! I think it's amazing when an author can get you feel things for her characters by their way of writing! I can't wait to see what turn this story will take!
