While performing this task Daisy crosses paths with Luis Castro. Not a nice meeting because Luis almost hit crashed Daisy with her scooter. Instead of apologizing, Luis accuses Daisy of being an incompetent driver and just unplugs her.

Daisy then finds out that Luis turned out to be one of two new riders who will join their team the following year. When the racing season begins again, Daisy tries to avoid Luis because she does not want Luis to remember the event that ‘almost collided them while in Brazil. In an effort to prevent Luis, Daisy once again finds herself almost bumping into him. And of course Luis then remembers her, and again the war of their words begin.

Lucy in the Sky

Lucy is currently on a plane from London to Australia when she receives an SMS from her friend James. In which stands: “Hi Lucy! Just slept with James in your bed. Thought you should know that, four times this month. Nice sheets! XXX” Of course, Lucy must first get through her flight and can only try after several hours to clarify the matter. Finally arrived in Australia, she is getting to know Nathan, Sam’s little brother. When the two last saw each other, Nathan was still a teen. Lucy is also very attracted to Nathan and is trying hard to hold fast to her old life with James. After the wedding, she flies back to England and also to James, but nothing is as it used to be.

Lucy in the Sky is Paige Toon’s first book, a story about Lucy who returns to her native country Australia to attend her best friend’s wedding and before her plane takes off, and she receives a text message that crashes her whole life. The writing style is narrated in first person perspective, and so the readers get to hear all of Lucy’s thoughts about the text message, going back to Australia and the dilemma between her fiancé of four years, and Nathan, Sam’s younger brother she falls for while in Australia.

Lucy is a beautifully woven character, like a real person she does have flaws, and did string along both James and Nathan in a way but she did it for a reason. James was such a cunning character, and this made it easy for Lucy to believe that she did love both Nathan and him. Overall the story is an impressive debut with easy writing and delivers what precisely the readers want.
