This is a beautiful book filled with young love, pain and ultimately finding what happiness is all about and what really matters in life. I fell in love completely with Blaine and Maddie. Their sexual chemistry is so strong throughout the book and keeps you wanting to read more.Blaine is your typical football playing jock that is popular with all the students. All of the girls just swoon when he is near, but he is hiding a secret. Maddie has been moved all over the place by her erratic mom. She has moved to the U.S. from England and is thrust into a world with Blaine and a whole new culture. Maddie has her own issues dealing with her mom. She finds that the school is not very accepting of her until Blaine takes her under his arm. They manage to find a way to be together even though all the odds are against them from the start and they develop a love to help them work through their adversity.Nicola has a way of weaving her words where you feel like you are part of the story. I love her British quips and the humor throughout is refreshing. I found myself laughing at certain points and crying right along with the characters in other areas. This book deals with some serious abuse and it is clear that she knows what she is talking about and done her research. There are seriously moments where my heart was breaking for her characters. Her characters seem so real and I just couldn't put this book down.I absolutely love this author! I would read anything that she publishes and I highly recommend this book if you love a good romance filled with some angst and lots of humor. It is well worth the read!
