Description

Skylar is a freshman in Lindon U and her year starts with a BANG!! She then meets DJ (a.k.a Danny) who is on the football team, but he seems fascinated by the way she acts simply because she is different then everyone. They have a very slow burn friends to lovers progression that is both super cute and heart warming. Years later Ivy struggles to face the harsh reality of her choices after running away from her broken family home. The teen did whatever was necessary to find shelter and survive, and years later is now left tormented by her past. It’s something I have to deal with every time she complains about things like her mother refusing to extend her curfew, let her date, or wear certain types of clothing when she’s out. Her nose always crinkles when I say, “I don’t see why you’re so upset. Your mother loves you. That’s why she’s hard on you.”

Olive was the best part of the book too. When I read the author's note I fell even more in love with her and the book.i can understand both characters and why they do what they do, it still gets really irritating when they arent willing to learn so it becomes a huge cycle of the same thing Speaking of the heroine -- the author really poured on the angst and hardships. Beware there are some possible triggers. Self-cutting and a suicide attempt are at the top of the list. This poor girl has been through some rough and tough times in her short life. I was teary-eyed and furious throughout three-fourths of the story. But she shows strength and pushes herself for achieving a much better life. My rage was without bounds; I sprang on him, impelled by all the feelings which can arm one being against the existence of another. As a couple, I did not really enjoy them. I saw no chemistry between them, whatsoever. I felt like they worked better as friends. This story as a whole to me would have worked better if it was not marketed as a romance. I just did not feel the connection. It felt more like Ivy's journey and her best friend helping her with that journey. I can't deny that they did have some cute moments but in all it just did not work for me. I love Ivy even with her flaws and endless mistakes!!! This girl's actions and reactions could characterized as wrong from the mass, but if you will read this story, you will realize that Ivy was just a broken girl who was a survivor.

I did truly love Aiden though. A virgin football player who is head over heels in love with the same girl he's adored his entire life? Along with being an actual gentleman?! My ovaries cannot handle this. Seriously, it's such a rarity in the romance world to get a polite H, let alone one that is a VIRGIN, aka, not a douchebag womanizer. That my catnip, baby! His love for football wasn't his entire personality either -- he was just such an inherently good person, and I just adored him.I grin to myself and pass the man his change, coffee, and bag of pastries before turning to her. “Whatever. And he’s just another customer, so chill.”

I try not to focus on the low, husky tone of his voice, which causes bumps to rise over my arms. He’s twenty-­one, but he doesn’t sound it. Before I settled for a half-­renovated basement, I couch surfed with strangers. Most of them were men older than my twenty years with every intention of making me pay them in some way, and usually not with money. They form an amazing friendship, which I absolutely adored. He helped Sky with building her confidence and standing up for herself. I loved how their relationship progressed. What I didn’t expect was how defined his jaw became, slightly squared and clean of any scruff most of the time, a patrician nose free from any breaks despite his aggressive sport, and a set of lips that are enviously fuller than mine. Skylar,” he cuts me off, seriousness washing over his usually playful features. “I’m going to tell you this once, so listen real good. There’s a big difference between agreeing to help somebody when they ask because you care about them, and having people assume you’ll help because they think you owe them something. You never have to worry about me feeling used when it comes to anything we do together. I’ll bury my face between those pretty thighs of yours any day of the week. I’ll bury plenty of other things there too if that’s what you want.” Your usual?” I greet him, careful to keep my tone even despite the way my skin tingles as he towers over the register.

this book was a good read. it was easy. it was fast. it was pretty average and nothing super bad about it. idk no wow factor in it unfortunately but disappointment is nothing new at this point ;-; Danny was everything and Skylar, ahh the wah she grew!!! The way she got over all the difficulties and started to trust again. It was too complicated to try to explain it, so it will be better to just jumb into this story without many informations about it... Ivy was kind of annoying to me. I understood she went through hell and she is survivor. But I just did not like her character. Every time Aiden would try to help her, she would just turn him down and continuously question why he wanted to help her. And to some extent I understood why she was like that, but it got annoying at some parts and I just did not like her that much. Aiden was okay, I guess I liked him a more than Ivy but not by much. He was very sweet and selfless, but he was a bit pushy. I understand in some ways Ivy needed him to be a bit pushy, but it was just another thing that annoyed me. I do better when people aren’t looking out for me because there’s nobody to disappoint when things go south."

As for the romance, I wish Ivy showed her love as freely as Aiden did, but I understood why she couldn't all the time. Towards the end of the book, I truly did appreciate her even though I never really fell in love with her. All in all this was still a great read from an incredibly talented author and I can't wait to see what she does next!!This story was laced full of pain and heartbreak, but the author gave us hope and show us that there is a light after all in the end of the darkness!!!
