★My Review★
 
I will be honest here, the cover and the title is the reason I picked up this book. Then I read the blurb and I was a goner. I loved this book, it reminded me why I love reading. It was a total feel good book, and I find it at the right time.
The story started us off when Carter Reynold was 5 years old and his was cruelly addressed by his grandfather as a bastard. The word defined his whole life.
At the age of 17, his mother found her ‘happy ever after’ with her new husband. Although his mother was happy and some in love with her new husband, Carter was insulted and humiliated when she was not around to see it. Carter does not want to destroy his mother happiness so he bit his tongue and wait for the day when he gets to leave.
He then fell in love with his happy and lovable neighbor Indi Montgomery, he did give her a hard time, but she just turn him on more. Due to for fear of rejection by someone he cares about, he left without saying good bye to Indi.
Fast forward 5 years later, Carter is back and Indi has moved on. But his feel is still there and stronger, he just has to convince Indi that he loves her and he will stick around this time.
It was hard not to fall in love with carter and indi, I love their story, and they went through a lot together. Even through Carter could be an asshole, Indi gave as good as she got from Carter, their banter kept me very entertained.  I will be reading a lot more books from JL Perry, I enjoyed her wrote, she was able to draw me to her characters.

★My Review★

I have been looking forward to this book for about a year, I love Abbi Glines books and i wasn't disappointment at all. She has always be good with cute, ansty and intense story line, and she can write a great mean girl. I was expecting mean girl drama, and I was not disappointed.
 This book was a great read, it reminded of that movie with Kristen Stewart speak, but better.  It was an easy and light read. 

West Ashby the hero is the star football player, popular guy, and appears to have the perfect life, but  he is struggling with the secret of his father’s illness. None of his friend knows about his family life, and he has no one to talk to, until his best friend’s cousin Maggi moved to town.

Maggi also has her struggle, after witnessing a father kill her mother, she stop speaking to deal with her pain, and not have to talk about it. She hasn’t said a word to anyone in two years. West and Maggie are both trying to survive the heartache they were dealt and together they felt connected.

What I loved most about the this book was the character growth, development and the way they supported each other. I also loved the supporting characters and can’t wait to see how their stories unfold; Brady, Nash ( my favourite lol), Gunner, and Asa. Overall, I will recommend this book, for a light easy read and I look forward to the rest of the series.
