REVIEW
This has to be one of my favorite reads of the year.
The characters were amazing. I was captivated by their story and I really cared about what happened to them.
Whitney, although a rich city girl, was sweet and quite down to earth for someone who'd been living the high life with daddy. I think she inherited more of her mother's personality, and it shone through from start to finish. Her mom and sister were so much fun, and they all shared this bond that couldn't be broken, even with the many miles and years that had separated them, as well as the devastating secret that made it's way out of hiding. I was glad that although Whit had escaped her normal life to get away from her douche of an ex, it gave her the time to reconnect with her family.
Cole Pritchett...hmmm, just thinking about him puts a huge smile on my face. First of all, I'm a sucker for tattoos, and secondly I have a soft spot for broken, misunderstood bad boys. He was really just a good, genuine guy who'd had a sucky life which ultimately pushed him in the wrong direction. His brother's hard ass attitude was the best thing that could have ever happened to him, and I was so happy that he found someone who was willing to give him a chance. His actions in this story showed a totally different picture of the guy first introduced; not only with his dedication to his work, but also the way in which he treated Whitney.
Things weren't easy for them. They had to deal with their own stubbornness, and then the many outside influences that threatened their relationship, but it only made them stronger, and solidified their love for each other.
At times this book was predictable but I didn't care one bit, I was just so in love with everything about it. It was sexy and sensual, sweet and charming, fun and exciting, and emotionally charged all at the same time. Basically it was the perfect read.
Therefore it deserves a perfect score :)

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
When I'm not writing or playing the part of wife and mother, you can find me dancing back-up for Beyonce, singing back-up for Miranda, or sunning myself on the beach with a drink in hand. Here's the thing about being born and raised in a small town—you have a very vivid imagination! Now, I channel it all to create stories where the girl always ends up with the right guy, first kisses are magical, and a happy ending is just that!
