This is everything I wanted in a book! I cried tears of joy, tears of sadness, and tears of "why the heck can I not stop leaking?" This book wrecked me in the best way possible. My emotions were on a roller coaster and my heart felt like it was going to explode, sink, and shatter all at once.
Read this Book! Cry. Fall in Love. And then cry some more. Brace yourself for love, heartbreak, and some spicy scenes!
I need some ice cream now that I have slowed my breathing and controlled my sobs. If you need me I will be picking up the pieces of my heart.

Tried so hard to enjoy this book. There is just not much there to keep you engaged in the story. Gave up about half way through.

I was not Team Gabe or Team Darren...or really Team Lucy. I think that Gabe was selfish and Darren was too traditional and sexist. On top of that, Lucy wanted to have her cake and eat it too. The whole part near the end where she did not even bother to ask Darren about the truth and then it blew up in her face was so frustrating. It was hard to be sympathetic to her situation at all. It's not really worth your time, in my opinion.
