Saving Sophie by
Debbie Schrack is a poignant tale of romance that instantly grips readers,
surprising them through every page with twists. Seventeen-year-old Gabe Hunter
finds it difficult to come to grips with a car accident caused by his
half-brother, Josh, an accident that killed four members of a family, leaving
sixteen-year-old Sophie, the only survivor of the accident, struggling with
amnesia and brain injury. Gabe accepts to tutor for his senior service and is
stunned when he discovers that he will be tutoring Sophie, a National Merit
Scholar finalist and the same survivor of the accident caused by his brother.
This offers an opportunity for Gabe to make up, even in a small way, for the
pain that his brother has caused her. The only thing he never planned and
foresaw is falling in love.
Debbie Schrack’s extraordinary storytelling craft shines in
the story’s close point of view and the author’s finesse in character
depiction. Readers will adore Gabe, a young man who deeply cares about his
brother, but whose sense of purpose and strong connection with Josh is crushed
by a reckless accident that leaves a young girl utterly vulnerable. The
emotions are written in detail and the characters are genuinely flawed, truly
human, and surprisingly relatable. The themes of family ties, trauma, the quest
for purpose, and love and fully and intelligently drawn. This is not your
run-of-the-mill romance, but a tale of a young man falling in love with the
most unlikely character. You’ll want to find out what happens next; you’ll ache
for the characters and find delight in the excellently crafted intimate
moments. Saving Sophie is a
winner!
