Praise for Suffer Love: "[Blake] writes a believable, emotionally satisfying romance that relies on realistic characterizations rather than supermodel good looks, fashion, and standard plot devices. It's a refreshing change from the far more common standard romances that so often become formulaic, and the well-integrated literary references are a bonus. A smart, satisfying romance."--Kirkus"Debut author Blake puts the teens in a near-impossible situation, adeptly showing how Sam and Hadley can be more adult in handling the complications of romance than all four of their parents . . . Readers will be left thinking about the ways love can both hurt and heal."--Publishers Weekly"A strong choice for YA collections, especially where romance is popular."--School Library Journal"Sam and Hadley are appealing and engaging characters, especially when Hadley devastatingly, sympathetically learns the truth. Blake doesn't opt for the easy, happily-ever-after ending, instead emphasizing that relationships are work and need to be handled with care."--Booklist "Sam and Hadley's palpable and steamy romance had my heart racing. This heartfelt, realistic story kept me up reading all night long. I loved this book."--Miranda Kenneally, bestselling author of Catching Jordan"Shakespeare references, betrayal, and a teacup piglet: what more could you want in a modern love story?" -Courtney C. Stevens, author of Faking Normal and The Lies About Truth"An emotionally vivid, fearlessly honest portrait of two very human families, with a love story that will make you ache. Utterly beautiful."--Becky Albertalli, author of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda
