She’s kissing me, and I’m so fucking stunned that it takes me a moment to react, a moment to consider kissing her back. “I’m not.” As soon as that last word leaves my lips, she’s on me, slamming into me, her lips pressing against mine. “You’re upset,” I say, “but you’re lying to yourself if you think you want me gone.”
“Because I can’t,” I tell her, “and I’m pretty sure you don’t really want me to.”
“It hasn’t happened.”īesides the beautiful, perfectly done, slow burn rekindling of Johnathan and Kennedy’s love: “I hate you. I just wanted to know how long it took you to move on.”
“I’m playing with fire, like I don’t remember how much it hurts to get burned, but from here, where I’m standing, all I can seem to feel is the warmth.” Kennedy is of course reluctant and still angry, but little by little she lets Johnathan back in her life and their daughter’s, Maddie. Years go by, and after becoming a HUGE star and FINALLY getting clean, Johnny wants to be back in Kennedy’s life and meet the daughter he’s never even seen. You felt invisible, and you were desperate for an audience, but where does that leave your love? Because the more people who see you, it seems, the less you see her.” She came here with you, not quite realizing what you were going through. Something inside of her is disintegrating. Your love is more than enough for her, but she feels pieces of it slipping away. “You don’t know this, but that woman? Even as she smiles, she’s utterly terrified. But somewhere along the way, Johnathan lets the pressure and Hollywood life ruin the one good relationship he has and Kennedy fears she’s loosing herself too. They both leave school to move to Hollywood to chase Johnny’s dream of becoming an actor. He’s a gifted actor with stars in his eyes and dreams of leaving his life behind to act. Johnny couldn’t care less about academics. Kennedy just wants to get good grades and make something of herself. They meet at the prestigious high school they’re both enrolled in. Ghosted tells the story of Jonathan Cunningham (aka Johnny Cunning) and Kennedy Garfield. Emotional and heartbreaking but SOOO sweet at the same time. I know I say this with every books of hers, but really, this book was so fantastic! Perfection.
