First, I had to remember how to breathe. Then, I had to learn how to survive. Two years, three months and sixteen days had passed since I was the Rowe Stanton from before, since tragedy stole my youth and my heart went along with it. When I left for college, I put a thousand miles between my future and my past. I’d made a choice—I was going to cross back to the other side, to live with the living. I just didn’t know how. And then I met Nate Preeter. An All-American baseball player, Nate wasn’t supposed to notice a ghost-of-a-girl like me. But he did. He shouldn’t want to know my name. But he did. And when he learned my secret and saw the scars it left behind, he was supposed to run. But he didn’t. My heart was dead, and I was never supposed to belong to anyone. But Nate Preeter had me feeling, and he made me want to be his. He showed me everything I was missing. And then he showed me how to fall. *This is a standalone in a three-part series that will focus on different characters. Each book can be read on its own.

I have read a few books by Jasinda before and they are quick erotic reads however, this was a really different side to her that I really enjoyed add to that the fact that this book has lived on my kindle for a year I am glad I spent my Sunday reading it.
Make sure to have a whole box of kleenex available when you read this.
This is the story of first love, and second chances when that love ends tragically.
Nell and Kyle's story isn't really what this book is about, although you need that to understand how Nell ends up in the dark and lonely place that she does when Colton (Kyle's Older brother) finds that he can not walk away from her. They seem to fix the broken pieces of eachother which I loved.
Kyle was the perfect boy, the golden child, and together He and Nell were always meant to be together. When his life ends in a tragic accident, Nell is frozen in time, unable to move past her guilt over his death or to grieve.
When she meets up with Colton 2 years after Kyle's death, Colton knows that he has to help her let go of her guilt and move on.
These two have been through so much that your heart just breaks for both of them, and you wonder how they're ever going to get it together.
I really like the way the author doesn't leave you hanging at the end of this story. It actually ends. It's not tied up all pretty, but this isn't that kind of story.
It's really hard not to fall for Colton. It's written from both Colton and Nell's POV, which is good because you get insight into where both the characters are coming from. All and all a great read I will be continuing with the story.
This book has been on my TBR forever, for years, but finally I decided to put it up front on my TBR and read it and boy I regret not reading it sooner. Really enjoyed this book and am definitely going to read the other books in the series.

OH THE DRAMA...
This book was just OK. Way too much angst and OTT drama. It took WAY too long for them to get together and when they finally did, we have MORE drama straight out of a Days Of Ours Lives episode.
By the end I just didn't give a shit anymore...
Oh and P.S. In what reality does a high profile attempted murder trial take ONE DAY to complete with jury verdict? Oh ya, soap opera reality! lol
