As I sit here writing this review I'm still trying to wrap my head around everything that happened in this book and I finished this book 24 hours ago.  I still can't get over what happened in this story it was fast-paced and exciting.  As a reader and blogger I am always looking for an author that likes to think outside of the box, outside of the standard romance novel.  I enjoy my romance novel as much as the next person but sometimes I like to read something non-conventional and Megan Hand has hit this one out of the park what surprises me most?  That this is a brand new author and if all her books are like this one I will be reading Megan's books for a long time to come.This story is about a girl named Lila Spencer.  Lila is a happy girl; she has her two best friends Nilah and Heather by her side in college and a wonderful boyfriend named Jay who comes to visit her for the weekend.  Every birthday they have a tradition to let lose and party the night away but this weekend Lila must choose between going out with her friends or staying with her boyfriend Jay.  Jay tells her that it's fine to go out with her friends so she leaves with them to go to a neighboring city an hour and a half away but what was suppose to be an innocent night of fun with her girls becomes so much more deadly for these three friends as they meet three guys and are quickly taken.  When I say taken I'm not saying picked up in a car to party and drink some more I'm talking taken like the movie Taken and so ensues the struggle for survival fighting against what these men have done to her and her friends.  At the same time Lila is also in her dorm safe with her boyfriend Jay.  Safe in his arms where she belongs while struggling with the idea of moving forward with her relationship with Jay.  Something is holding her back, but she can't figure out what that thing is.At this point I was like say what now?  I knew the description behind this book but the way it was written really was like she was living her Friday night two different times like she was split right down the middle and half or her went one way, the other half went another.  I just couldn't stop reading because it was like on one end she's safe and happy and the other she's fighting for her life.  But then when she wakes up it's like her worlds collide into one especially since the dreams feel so real and there's evidence from her having lived that Friday night for real even though it appears to only have been in her head.So now you will join Lila as she discovers the truth about her dream.  Was it reality?  Was it her imagination?  Join her as she struggles to discover what's fact and what's fiction the entire time thinking to yourself what would you do if you were given the chance to relive a day again and change the course of your future?  Bravo on this one Megan 5 stars!!!
