The Apple Tree by Jewel E. Ann
5.0
emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

The Apple Tree was an emotional rollercoaster in the best way.  It had me laughing and crying.  The characters were so well written, their pain and love was on every page.
Eve is 18 and a bit of a wild child.  She's trying to prove that she's not a kid anymore when Kyle moves in next door.  He's 28, math teacher, football coach and single dad.  It's lust at first sight for Eve.  She begins to fall for Kyla and Josh and Josh loves her.  Kyle tries to resist the pull he has for her.  Eventually, they begin a secret relationship with its ups and downs.  Eve still has so much growing to do and Kyle has Josh to worry about.  When Eve's drinking becomes to light and she goes to rehab, can she learn to grow and accept responsibilities?  Can her and Kyle's love make it last?
