Review: Trailer Park Romance gone right

Now let me start by saying that I honestly stumbled across this book via Facebook. I read the blurb about it and looked at the cover. I was sold!Rory is the kind of girl we all truly love. She was born into a life that she didn't deserve but she's playing the cards she's dealt with a drunk mom and a little brother she needs to basically be a mom to instead of a sister. She lives in a tiny crappy trailer park and doesn't feel like anything good is bound to come her way.---> Enter Toby. He's the boy every girl dreams about having rescue them and he's quite adorable sometimes but I honestly hated him once it got to a certain part in the story. He went from my idea of a knight in shining armor to a dirtbag. That may be harsh but who seriously let's his girl get constantly tortured by his ex or makes her endure his mom reminding her yet again, that she's garbage and shouldn't be with a nice boy like Toby. My heart broke for Rory and I wanted to give her the biggest hug so many times throughout this book. She's the kind of friend I would choose to have. Status means very little to me.Rory endured many things throughout this book that she just truly didn't deserve. Not that anyone ever would. I think this book shows insight that people are just people, whatever side of the 'tracks' they come from.Rome (swoon), may be the Dark Knight as so referred to but I loved him. He truly is what Rory needs and I cheered for him over Toby. Sometimes it takes someone who truly understands your life to be able to be there for you in the way you need. I think Rome did that for Rory.I found it slightly comical when Toby wouldn't stop his truck for her to get in when he would pick her up. I would have told that boy to kick rocks immediately but she's so wrapped up in "Toby, the White Knight" that she doesn't see it.I loved this book, yes there were grammatical errors but when a story is as enlightening as this one an avid reader can look beyond. I think Delia Steele has done a knock out job on this one and I would absolutely read more of her work.
