Crazy Thing Called Love by Molly O'Keefe
4.0
Man, I love reunion stories. And redemption stories. And bad boys. Ok, so this book was pretty much made for me.
The beginning of this book was hard for me, because watching young people in love screw up is never fun. But I like it when an author isn't afraid to have a character walk away from someone they love because they aren't willing to accept how they are being treated and what their relationship is turning them into. So the back story is terrific and their reconnection is bittersweet, especially as more details about their childhoods are revealed and you just sort of wish they could have found a way to work through their problems years ago, because these two are perfect together but have missed out on so much time. I think I particularly liked how much of the story was from Billy's POV. Watching him struggle with his issues was moving. Great book, and I definitely got teary more than once, so grab a Kleenex.
