I am somewhat biased.  The woman can't write anything less than a 5 star. Seriously.  I am such a huge fan.  Her Love and Skate series was my first and will always be a favorite.  Team Falcon!  Then I read AnguiSH and thought she couldn't top that.  When Seeking Havok came along it blew me away.  I was blessed with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.  So let's be real for a minute.Seeking Havok is phenomenal.  A "Must Read"!  For most of us, the story line is unimaginable.  We take advantage of so many things on a daily basis.  Havok is used to having to take care of herself.  She is either hiding in the closet at home, while her mom brings her work home with her, or walking the streets when no one should be alone.  She can't let go  of feeling needed by her mom.  This alone will make you so angry and hurt for her.  As a mother, I can not imagine putting my kids through this.  Lila keeps it real.  She doesn't sugar coat anything and is still able to bring hope to the story.  She makes you feel it. Havok finds comfort in Fade's late night radio show.  She caves in and calls using her middle name.  She gives her two cents regarding everyone's trivial complaints about their own lives.  They don't know what hard really is.  She has a hard time letting others up close.  She needs to feel safe, loved and protected.Fade and Havok have a chance meeting, each not knowing who the other really is. They both start out not being honest about who they truly are.  It is not in a purposefully deceitful way.  It is completely understandable and you find yourself rooting for both all the way through.  As the attractions and friendship starts to grow, the lies threaten to rip it all apart.  He can't let her go when she thinks that is what she really needs.  Fade NEVER gave up on her and he wouldn't let her give up on herself either.  His commitment to her is inspiring and unfaltering.I have a thing for the underdog.  Lila always shows a strong sense of hope and determination in her characters to not only survive but to have one heck of a story to tell.  Her lead female characters are so much stronger than they ever think they are.  They are not spineless, vindictive or needy.  Her lead male characters always have such huge hearts and respect for women.  They are extremely loyal to family, always putting others first.  Fade is no exception.  This story will pull at your heart.  I was constantly on the edge of my seat.  It was worth every moment.  I will read anything Lila Felix writes.  Don't hesitate.  This brave story is totally worth it.As Lila so eloquently put it, "Everyone is worth saving in the eyes of the one that loves them."
