Oh my goodness I was pleasantly surprised by this book.Jasmine was a very strong character. Way stronger than she thought she was and very brave. I really loved her. I felt for her and her family and in fact fell in love with them all. I couldn't imagine going through all that they went through and coming out so much stronger because of it.And while I loved Jasmine and her family (okay really loved the pranks she did with Caedan!), Easton was the one that stole my heart. What a charmer he was with his southern accent and manners. Truly he was a swoon worthy character that really did make me smile and wish that I knew him in real life. No bad boy persona here, he was all good 'ole Southern charm.And his family? I loved them all too! I really wanted to be a part of his wonderful family. His brother Trenton, his Mom and Dad, Chase, his Aunt Bellie, they were all perfect and all exactly how I would picture a family from down South to be.And while this was a serious read about serious stuff, I laughed quite a few times throughout as well. Jasmine was hilarious. I loved her inner dialogue.I can't say it enough but this book really did surprise me. In fact, my only complaint was that it wasn't longer. I really wasn't ready for it to be over. It has the right about of everything that I love in a good story. Great characters, a great plot, suspense to keep you on edge, enough mystery to keep you curious, and just the right amount of romance and humor to keep me happy and lets not forget lots and lots of Southern hospitality.Dillion is one author I will be keeping an eye on. I will happily read whatever else she comes out with.I truly loved every minute of this one.
