Going into this book, I was pretty excited as the blurb sounded quite interesting. While it did take me a while to actually connect with the book and the characters, the story’s concept was actually a great one. I love the in love with the best friend’s brother type of story. I just found this one very slow paced. While it does deal with a very tough subject of clinical depression, I found there wasn’t enough with Kaylee about it. It seemed fleeting at times with her and while she had her dark thoughts, some were almost every day typical teenage ones. Brendon, for all his hotness, found him to drive me up the wall toying with Kaylee like he did.
Overall, it was a decent read, just a little slow for pacing wise and connecting with the characters. I did love the banter between the boys at the tattoo shop. I was giggling at Dean more often than not! The passion and openness between Kaylee and Brendon when the ball was rolling was breathtaking though. How they melded together was amazing.
