Love and second chances – my favorite plot ever!Reed had made a mistake, but he had to do it to protect Elle. But can he just come back after vanishing without a trace and redeem himself with Elle? She mighthave moved on, or she could be very well angry at him after what he had done.All he wanted to have is the CHANCE to explain to her what happened, and why did hehad to leave. He needed to tell her he loves her, and his feelings were real nomatter how short their relationship might be. Now, if only she’d give him thechance…From one broken heart, to the next – Elle was indeed unlucky. But this time, it was much too painful. She gave him a chance, he left her with a broken heart. Shetried to move on, made new friends, and finds the distraction she needs to keepher mind off Reed. She tries to live her life, until she sees Reed was back intown again…I wished she didn’t cross THAT line with Tyler. I felt she was abusing him. She needed the friendship he had to offer, since he was always there for her. He had a BIGthing for her since then, now with Reed nowhere in sight, Tyler took this as asign that finally he can have his chance. Maybe, if Reed was really an ass, I wouldhave wanted Tyler for Elle. They would have been good for each other.As for Reed – he is surrounded by girls who were trouble. I can’t help but shaking my head as he tries to get Elle back with desperate measures, employing the aidof someone who really CAN’T be trusted.It took a while, but when the CHANCE to EXPLAIN finally came through, and they made up – ayeee! It was just wonderful – they fit each other like gloves: soperfect for each other. The sex was explosive, and the love was just stronger. Andjust when everything was going smoothly, another bump in the road came intoview… will they make it this time?I enjoyed the dual POV, I have always wanted to get into the thoughts of the main characters. Elle MAY have made me frown at first – with all her tendency for “rebound”,but still, I like her when she finally gave Reed the chance he had been wantingto have. As for Reed – his persuasiveness, mixed with desperation may have beena little dangerous and nearly cost their relationship, but I admire hisdetermination to winning our girl back. In addition – the secondary charactersin this story are just pretty spectacular! They were great friends and supportsystem to both our main characters. Help came surprisingly from someone I didn’texpect…The road to forgiveness was a bumpy ride with a whole lot of whining, hurting, and there were just too many people involved which made the whole thing a lotmessier. Wanting Reed is about love and second chances – on how much faith you can put into a relationship, how much trust are you willing to give to a person who can hold so much power to destroy you. It’s about friendship – being there when friends needs you the most,and helping out when times get tough.★ARC Copy was given in exchange for an honest review.★
