I had just finished readingLove Isn't Blind: A Sweet and Special Romances Collectionwhen I found this book as well. Both are examples of beautiful love stories where one person is determined to make it work and the other is determined that it fails. "I Won't Give Up" tells the story of Fiona and Cooper. Fiona has always been the good girl and has had a pretty good life up until things change at the end of her junior year. Fiona is stunned by the changes that rock her world and doesn't know how to react or what to do. Her reactions to the things happening in her life are very realistic and the fact that Fiona isn't a perfect woman but is facing problems of her own makes her that much more relatable.Cooper is the new kid with problems of his own. He was once a bad boy but has now changed his ways and who doesn't love a reformed bad boy? Cooper is the kind of man that makes any woman 'weak in the knees' with his rough exterior yet a determination to change. From first sight he's determined to make Fiona his but she is just as determined to push him away. Getting her to fall in love with him is going to take more work than he had planned and it's going to be up to him if he's willing to put in the effort. He tries winning her over but she refuses to let him. He then tries making her jealous but that plan fails when Fiona starts dating someone new as well. Too bad, that someone new could be more than just a caveat in Cooper's plan to win her over. This new person could be a danger to Fiona.If he's going to keep Fiona alive and make her his own, Cooper is going to face some things from his past that he would rather stay hidden. But if he reveals his secrets will they be able to live out their own happily ever after?This book is a great example of how truelove simply won't give up no matter what obstacles are thrown in the way. Cooper is determined to find a way to make Fiona trust him and give him a chance, which is really all anyone wants after all.This book shows how Cooper is determined to have more than just one night with Fiona and he'll do whatever he can to make that happen. Fiona is determined to have nothing to do with Cooper, but will she come to see that he's perfect for her? And most important of all, will she realize it before it's too late? This book has all the great parts of a wonderful romance with a little action thrown in for good measure.
