What makes this book so different is that you start out with the prologue finding out what their pasts are instead of waiting the whole book to find out.  It's also NOT a HEA, which I was surprisingly okay with.Both main characters, Nova and Quinton, have suffered tragic pasts.  Both were witness to losing the loves of their lives in horrific ways.  Both are left with unresolved, torturous guilt that they cannot deal with or get past.  When the two meet, there is an undeniable pull toward each other.  Both try to resist each other...for fear they will break the unspoken promise to their past loves.  They feel they do not deserve to be happy or experience love again.One thing I was not a fan of was the drug use.  Unfortunately, it turned me off.  I'm not afraid of reading about it, but there was just way too much and it took away from the story for me.The prologue totally drew me in, but I am sad to say I could not help but feel with the rest of the book "it's gonna get really good again soon".  It just didn't keep me engaged and wasn't nearly as emotionally raw as with Ella and Micah and with Callie and Kayden!The ending was okay for me.  I was not surprised by it and was kind of glad actually.  Don't want to spoil it so I won't elaborate, but I was content with how it ended.  Not a cliff hanger, but curious to see what happens in the sequel.  I am giving it 3 stars because I really did like it, but I didn't love it.
