At first she’s excited for the new, perfect distractions to pull herself from misery.
The closer she gets, the more secrets are revealed, lies are told, and tears are shed. Their relationship falters and Taylor is left unsure if she’s willing to pick up the pieces of this broken guy.

I loved this book and couldn’t put it down until the last page. This story is a little dark as it contains sensitive material but it made the story real for me. This story is about Taylor. She comes from a resistive home and manages to fall for her roomates brother. But the problem with Hayze is that he has a drinking and drug problem. Their story is an emotional ride for sure. I found myself hoping that there was a happy ending for them. It is worth picking it up, a must read!
Everyone thinks college is a time to party and try new things. This story was sad because this is what happens often. My heart broke for all the confusion and emotional angst between Hayze and Taylor.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
