Ohhhh where to even start with this review. Can I tell you how amazing this book was. I was so emotionally involved and moved and touched in this book that it felt like I was the one actually living this life.Okay so we start off in the past...7 years ago. Will and Cally are two teenagers completely head over heels in love with one another. Even though Will is older and even though Cally is willing to lose her virginity to Will, but he wants to wait till prom night. To make it special and meaningful. So they decide to wait. Well whilst all this is going on Cally her two sister and her mother are moving. Her mother is divorcing their father and she is moving them to Nevada. The promise of still coming back for prom to be with Will and then still having a future with one another.However.....that isn't what happens......In present time Cally is driving back home with her two younger sisters heading to their father's house. Their mother has recently died and they have no where else to go. Cally hasn't been back since she left. While yelling at the GPS system trying to find her father's house she runs into Will. And for the two of them it is like time stood still. Will is supposed to hate Cally. Pretty sure he does. I mean really she broke his heart, ripped it out of his chest and stomped on it. However, when he first sees Cally time stops and its like being back in the past and in that moment he realizes he's still in love with Cally. Cally still finds him hawt as ever and of course she still loves him.....for her it's always been Will. Instead of shoving her away or being mean he helps her find her fathers house.So whilst all this is going on Cally finds out that her father isn't home so she'll need to take the girls to a motel for the night. As the reader we learn that Cally's life has been rough and that's putting it mildly. Cally has not had it easy or good. Her mother became a drug addict and and Cally was supporting her family because their father didn't. Not only that but Cally had to do some things that she isn't proud of. I honestly have no idea how she survived it and not only that she thrived....in a sense. Anyways the plan was to drop her sisters off, get them settled in with their father and then take back off to work. She'd send money to help out as well. However, the reality is never that easy.On the flip side of that Will has done very well for himself. Well sorta. I mean financially and all he's set. Love life....well not so much. He's been engaged before....yeah....you'll have to read about that. And "loved" women...especially those unattainable and all and no strings attached hook ups. Looking to fill a void left in his heart from when he was a teenager. So instead of again being mean and hating Cally he offers to help her out. She is looking to find a place to work...she's a massage therapist and yes while her mother was one too with happy finishes and all, that's not Cally. So Will helps her find a place to work out of to help build some clients to help pay for things because her father's house is falling down and is in no shape to really take care of his children.Well while this goes on feelings come back full force for the two of them and Cally is trying to be good and do the right things (especially since she knows she isn't staying this time) and Will just can't seem to stay away. One thing leads to another and all 3 girls have to vacate their father's house for a few days and Will offers to host the girls in his home. Aww.....LOVE IT!!!! I really want these two to figure things out and find that love again....I really love their characters.Anyways one of the flingy things that Will had with a chick her name is Meredith. Uggg ugly fat cow......and I have a few other choice words for her. She comes back to constantly stir things up and she's very nasty to Cally. Cally starts to get comfortable...sort of. Her and Will kind of explore their feelings and they might finally see what being with each other is like. However, there is a few other hidden secrets that Cally has and it might be just enough to scare Will away? Can Cally run from her past? Or will it finally catch up to her? If it does what does that mean for her? Her family? And Will and his "past" that keeps coming into the present? Can Will and Cally really ever move on together? Well you'll have to read to find out and let me tell you it is sooooo worth it. This book has everything and I found myself crying a few times during this book as well as shocked, happy, sad, hawt moments, awww moments and a lot of other ones. So make sure to go get your hands on this book it is sooo worth it!!!
