I really enjoyed the storyline, there were a few typo's but not too much of a problem to the overall enjoyment of the book though.So we meet Nathan, strong athletic, handsome man, who appears to be a bit of a player with some history that's being hidden ! He gets into a fight almost immediately who just happens to be a kickboxing opponent he is due to be fighting soon.We then meet Eva, who is a sassy strong willed girl, but is also hiding secrets! Eva is at college and has a race coming up which she needs to win, to secure her scholarship so she doesn't have to work with her mother, who makes it quite clear that she will be working alongside her.Eva gets given a task to get the college website integrated with social network sites, and is sent to have a meeting; not long after seeing Nathan across a bar, their eyes meet and something is stirred up!  The IT expert turns out to be Nathan, and the attraction is full on, although they both try to keep it at bay!They begin working together for the College project, as Nathan is desperate for the job as he has had a run of bad luck recently, he had the kickboxing fight with the guy he was fighting with, Peter, who knocked him out.  Nathan was used to using women just for one night, drinking and women!Whilst training for her race, Eva has an accident which renders her running career useless. Nathan and Eva begin to form a friendship, whilst taking things very slowly, her best friend Chloe who is fantastic by the way talks to her about letting her past go and to let Nathan in, we learn that she had been abused in her previous relationship.Nathan also starts to let Eva in, but something is also holding him back.  Nathan starts training Eva and begins to help her get her running training back on track, and soon enough they take their friendship to a relationship, but it doesn't run smoothly, unfortunately obstacles get in their way,  They have a disaster date, where they don't have contact for a couple days; they soon resume where they left off! becoming closer, and falling hard for each other.  Whilst Eva is helping Nathan his ex turns up causing a devastating blow to then both, again causing heartbreak for both of them, as we discover Samantha's reason for coming back into his life!We also find out where Mason fits into the picture, he turns up at the start, and tries to get to know Eva, but she had odd feelings about him! He turned out to be OK in the end!So out of anger and a broken heart Eva starts training harder for her race, Race day comes and Nathan hides in the seating areas, she does well and Nathan then decides that Eva is better off without him although he is struggling to let her go.He comes home and finds her passed out in his apartment, turns out to be exhaustion, she then learns that her overbearing mother is coming to stay! Oh my what a cliffhanger! :(
