Canvas by Jacob Chance



🌟🌟🌗 out of 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Synopsis: 
Joshua Dawson is my best friend's ex-boyfriend. That alone should be reason enough for me to keep my distance. Add in that he's a well mannered, loyal and hardworking artist and I should be running in the other direction.

He's damn near perfect, and I prefer my men hard to love and easy to leave. Josh's only flaw is he wants forever, and for the first time I might want the same. But loving someone doesn’t mean you deserve them.

He's all I want and everything I can't have.

I thought that the chemistry between the main characters was explosive. Whenever they were near each other in the book, it was clear that there was tension because it leapt off the page.

I was kind of confused as to why the book seemed to have a few different "beginnings" or "prologues". The author gives a glimpse of events in Josh's life five years ago, four months ago, and then present day which makes for a confusing beginning. I had no idea what was going on or why. I started off liking the character but then he says some harsh things that automatic make me dislike him. I wanted to understand what happened between the characters that made them act the way that they did. 

It seemed like Josh and Elle began the book having some issues within themselves and each other. I think that I was able to where each of them stood but then it seemed as if they changed their stances on things very quickly. It didn't feel very realistic to me especially since they hurt each other and seemed firm in how they felt about pursuing any kind of relationship. After reading the entire book, I'm still not sure why they treated each other the way that they did... Not knowing how to deal with feelings for someone else is not a good enough excuse.

I thought that the book was predictable to a point. There were parts of it that were different from what I have come to expect from this genre which I appreciated. I would have liked to have seen the characters fleshed out a bit more. I still don't feel like I know much about them other than bits and pieces of information.
