Excerpt:
“Ohmigawd! Katy! Did you hear? Some guy just punched this other guy because he was groping on some girl! Apparently he broke his nose!” Noticing my sheepish glance at the guy beside me Rollo’s mouth popped open. “Oh gawd, it was you, wasn’t it?” 
   I bit my lip.  
   “She told him to stop.” He let go of my hand and crossed his arms over his lean chest. “He didn’t listen.” 
   I missed the feel of his hand in mine, which was strange. Ever since that night, I didn’t like to be touched by anyone. I must be in some alternate universe. Either that, or aliens had taken over my body. I never even talked to strangers, let alone let them hold my hand.  
   “Ohmigawd! Katy, are you okay? I should’ve been there! I know you haven’t been the same since-” 
   I waved my hand in an effort to shut him up. My sexy rescuer didn’t need to know my business. No one did. Everyone already thought I was weird and a freak, I’d prefer to keep my savior in the dark.

Katy Spencer's life fell apart two years ago. Since then, she's closed herself off. She's a shell of the person she used to be. The only person she trusts is her best friend Rollo, but even he can't keep the nightmares away. Then she meets Jared. He's the first man she's been around since the event that she's not afraid of. He makes her heart race, not in fear, but in a fluttering that could become something meaningful.
Jared can tell that Katy is broken. He sees something in her eyes that he’s often seen reflected in his own. 

Pain.

Fear. 

Self-loathing.

Jared is determined to get to know her. 
He wants to solve the mystery of Katy Spencer. 

He will… unravel her.

A story about two people with dark pass both not knowing what they're searching for. Then by fate they meet each other one night, and keep running into each other. Their connection is undeniable,, so see how the story unravels. 

What I adored about this book: 
-the funny gay friend
-how sweet they are together
-their ways of finding each other
-their adorable dates
-how awesome Katy is at times
-how sweet Jared is 

What I really not liked in this book:
-way too many descriptions
-it's missing a VERY important scene 
-it's really slow with mundane things

The story is very detailed, and I like detailed things, however, this made the story have a really slow pace! (Also I read the second book first which I liked at lot more) I'm a very impatient person and I caught myself skimming parts because it wasn't very interesting. The story plot itself was very well done, considering it had a hea ending ! Otherwise I would say that read it if you're in the mood to relax and enjoy a long romance ! 

Rating:

7/10

HAPPY READING !
