This started off quite intriguing, and while I didn’t necessarily want to stop reading, midway through I kept getting more annoyed.

Rowan being scared to have sex because he got a kid he wasn’t expecting the last time, feels a bit unrealistic. And while I understand the idea… it being half of his “flaw” in the book was like, you’re not serious. Also Delilah’s mom stole money… I get the guilt she feels but I honestly thought her mom would have murdered somebody how she talks about it.

The fears they had weren’t entirely irrational but it was written as it be more serious than what it is. I Can see it being something folks may put down because the narrative got tired quick. But overall I though it was a quick decent read.

The beginning of this book had me excited. I enjoyed the little tension between Rowan and Delilah. I was excited to keep reading and find out how their love story would unfold. However, half way through it, I got bored. I understood Rowan’s struggles but Lord, I got tired of him mopping. Sometimes, I liked Delilah, other times I also got tired of her. When I got to the end, I felt like I needed a bit more of them as a real couple. I wonder if this will turn into a series. Then we could get more of the other characters. I would like a story about Kirsten. I think there is something between her and Matt. 

 Overall, I don’t dislike this book but I had to push myself to finish it.

This had good potential, but the writing didn’t flow which made it difficult to read. The characters lacked substance, the book often felt repetitive and I feel like the author was stumbling over their words. I almost dnfed it

and to think...i started out really liking this one. 

well um, my first problem was the brother being possessive and telling her she should stay away from a guy neither of them knew...then the next one was that i felt like she was caring for him, not crushing on/liking him...then it was the constant horniness when i didn't even understand why they were so horny...PLS CALM TF DOWN!!...then lastly, it was them having a mid-way conflict that makes no sense...he slightly moves away during a kiss, she acts as if he shot her and shes been talking about how that movement made her feel and how she shouldve never trusted him for two chapters now SHUT UP! MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE! AND FUCK YOUR TRAGIC BACK STORY NOBODY GIVES A FUCK!!
