With a wide array of characters, plenty of back story and a few punch-in-the-gut twists, this story is vastly entertaining. Written in first person, we're put into the heart and mind of Clarissa as she struggles to fight against all odds for the one she loves.Growing up together, Jeremy and Clarissa are far closer than Clarissa's father would like them to be so in his cruelty, he makes it impossible for the two to marry.We then see the struggles the two face as they marry others, yet long for their true love. Through emotional and physical obstacles the pair will have to overcome their pasts in order to make a future together.The book was very engaging all with a lot of quick dialogue, a few jests and some very fun/interesting history tossed in. The only drawback to the writing was the many, many scene breaks that were necessary to keep the plot going while covering such a wide range of times. I honestly would have liked to see a few of them played out a little longer.
