**** I received an ARC copy of this book in exchange for an honest review ***This was the first book Karice Bolton, and I really enjoyed it. As the synopsis really tells you all you need to know, and more about the storyline. I will just tell you why I liked it.The storyline it was intriguing, emotional, funny romantic, sweet, it had it angst moments, and I loved the twist and turns. With the hint of family secrets from the very beginning, and add to the fact that I’m nosey I was hooked.  It was only sleep that got in the way of me finishing this book in one go.Gabby and Jason were such great characters, they had great chemistry together and I really liked them. There was something about Gabby that made me what to know more about her past and her secret. With all that she had gone through my heart went out to her, and I understood her insecurities, and why she had to be in full control in every aspect of her life.There was an air of mystery about Jason. I wanted to know his story, what was the reason behind his sadness. I liked how Gabby and Jason met, how got together, and that relationship took the time to developed. I’m a firm believer; in fate and destiny therefore I really liked the twist that connected them. I did have a feeling what it was, but it didn’t take away my enjoyment of the book it captivated me even more as I wanted to know if I was right.It had great supporting characters; Gabby's best friend Brandy was lovely, funny and was always there when Gabby needs her. Everyone needs a best friend like her. I also liked Gabby’s brother Aaron.Overall I really liked this book, and I have now become a fan of Karice. I liked the flow of the story, her writing style, and how I felt the emotions of the character when they did. I really liked the ending, I will warn you that there is a cliffhanger, and I loved it yes you read it right I loved it. A final twist that meant wasn’t about Gabby and Jason, I’m happy with they way things ended for them. It was about Brandy, and it definitely left me want to read more so I can wait to read the next book in the series Beyond Doubt where there we be also more from Gabby and Jason.If you like New Adult Contemporary romances then I recommend that you add, Beyond Control to your TBR list, as I don’t think you will be disappointed.(I loved recipes at the back of the book.)Some quotes:“I felt as if my world had done a pause just the mere sight of him made my heart flutter like I was back in grade school waiting to open my very first Valentine”~ Gabby“There is just something about you that seems so familiar and warm”~ Jason“We did fit perfectly together. Even the little pieces of our lives complimented one another’~ Gabby"I want to help you get over your fears. I want you to lose control, give me the control."~ Jason“Maybe if we see each other at our worst, it will make our best look even better.”~ Gabby“There was something different about him, his touch. He was aware of things as he traced along my body that no man had been aware of before.” ~ Gabby"You're not fragile. You're not broken. You don't need to be fixed. You're perfect the way you are."~ Jason
