I loved this book. It was a great read that kept you guessing and speculating all the way to the last chapter. Highly recommend it!!!!
I really actually liked this book, I liked the characters a lot, and the author did a good job of putting me into the situations. During the climax of it the book I actually almost teared up as well, which is pretty impressive.
However, there were some issues that cannot be overlooked: spelling mistakes were rampant and took away from the story, and the book was far too short and focuses way too much on day-to-day. I honestly was constantly hungry as I was reading this novel because of how much she talks about what she is eating.
Also, I read the summary of the second book and it's annoying how this entire book was really primarily about her relationship with Cole and then it ends like it does and the next book is what it is. I will not be reading anymore of this series.
Honestly it wasn't that great and the ending honestly killed it. It felt rush and everything didn't really flow together. And I'm probably not going to be picking up the second book.
I usually stay away from romance, but I needed it for my 2015 Reading Challenge. The premise of the book seemed interesting, but it just became extremely confusing. The narration was constantly switching without warning. Also, the plot deals with a very heavy topic (rape), but seems to beat around the bush with it. Preston just seems to not think her readers are ‘ready' to hear about such a serious topic.
The book is set in England, and being from the US, some things just kinda threw me off. A 15 year old was ready to move out and settle down with an (almost) 18 year old. She (the 15 year old girl) refuses to talk because of a problem that no one knows about (the we can assume rape).
Also! This book is apart of a series and I had no idea. There was no indication whatsoever. The ending of the book just kinda stopped. There were so many questions left to the reader.
I dunno... this is just a weird story. I really don't recommend it at all.
