Nate and Rowe....I fell...I fell hard for their story!
Rowe had been through such a tragedy that she had hid away for 2 years of her life...barely even speaking for the first 6 months. After being homeschooled and never talking to people other than her parents, the mailman and her therapist, she ventures off from Arizona to Oklahoma to go to College on her own. Rowe proves herself to be the most courageous girl I've ever known. She freaks out, has many panic attacks along the way, but she keeps going. Amazing! You can't truly even know how amazing without reading the book!
Nate is the most wonderful friend and boyfriend ever!!! He is so patient with her, and all he wants is to make her happy. At first he doesn't know her story, and he doesn't know why she acts the way she does, but he still doesn't run the other way. Then he slowly, piece by piece, along with us, learns the horror of her story and how she is still living with this nightmare. He wants nothing more than to make her smile and to make her laugh.
I love a romance story that has this much depth. This was wonderful! This is the kind of romance story I'd like to see in the movies! If you're longing for a real good romance, I highly recommend this one. Definitely 5 stars.

I liked it but it was nothing really special.
The characters were okay even though they were a little bit too dramatic for me.
Plus I don´t like how it´s the "it only takes a boy and suddenly the girl starts to heal" storyline, it´s just not really realistic.
Otherwise it was a quick and enjoyable read.

I am so excited to be reviewing this book because it is so different from the usual books I read. Rowe has been traumatized but she still wants to go to college. And along with Rowe, I love it when Nate calls her 33. Their phone call when she left to go back home to Arizona was so indescribably cute. I love their interactions with each other and their pranks toward one another. But what really made Nate the cutest guy ever, is when he told Rowe he would wait.
Can someone get me a man like that?!
I have seen (or read) a guy who just doesn’t stop; trauma or not. And even if I wasn’t there to witness Rowe in real life, I could tell by what I read that Rowe changed for the better when she met Nate.
Everyone needs to read this in order to know how a guy should treat you.

I liked parts of this book, but there were some that made me just want to scream “ SO STUPID”, if you’re looking for a lighthearted romance this is a decent book, just don’t go into it thinking critically or you’ll be disappointed.
1 give-me-a-break stars!
First of all this is pretty much like every other NA book, full with cliches and what not but what pissed me off wasn't the MC's slut shaming to make her look innocent and better - which she wasn't - or her unnecessary thoughts and overall boring voice but the hero was basically someone I wouldn't mind punching. It's hard to believe that a teen boy is looking for his one, but even harder, that when he does find her, she's perfect. Her hair, her eyes, her freaking feet! I mean come on, it made the story boring and unrealistic. No, a guy doesn't have to be either an asshole or a super nice guy, there's an in-between.

I DNF it at... 80% something like that ? Well, no. I didn't DNF it, but I skip the last quarter of the book. Not that it was bad, but it was so damn long and previsible.
I enjoyed the relationship between Rowe and Nate, they were sweet and everything else, but... I found this book boring. I didn't feel all the emotions the book wanted me to feel, and I just wanted to stop reading at one point.
Everything was predictable, no suspens, no emotion. I smile some times through. I found that amusing when they were pranking each other, but that's it.
At the begining, I wanted to read Ty and Cass' story, but not anymore... Well. I'm a little disapointed at last.
