I've been looking forward to reading this book for months.  Last night I started it and read straight through until 6 a.m.  I could not put this story down.Lindy and Lucas have been the best of friends since they were young children.  Each night Lucas would climb in Lindy's bedroom window and they'd talk about their day, their hopes and dreams.  The bond built could only be broken by a betrayal of the worst kind.  The kind that Lucas causes when on the eve of Lindy leaving for college, he makes the biggest mistake of his life hurting Lindy and adding humiliation to the hurt. He attempts to talk to Lindy at home that night and the next morning, but she's been irrevocably broken by his actions and words and leaves without speaking to him.  Lindy stays away from her hometown for the next four years, not wanting to face him.  When she returns after graduating with a degree in education, she lets Lucas explain, apologize, and decides to grant his wish that she allow him the chance to win back her friendship.  He plans to win back her heart as well.I loved Lindy & Tara's friendship.  I loved Lucas & Lindy's relationship as it blossomed.  And I loved the 5 parents the 3 friends shared!  Lucas Beck is one of my favorite book boyfriends now, because of his earning Lindy's love, efforts to protect Lindy from harm, and because he becomes the best friend and lover that Lindy deserves.  There was a lot of angst, but there was also a lot of humor in the exchanges between Lindy & Lucas.  I smiled so much while reading this book.I absolutely loved the childhood conversations between Lindy and Lucas that would grace the title page of each chapter.  I thought it was a particularly fresh tool used by the author to continue building the backstory and reveal the truest nature ofthe relationship between Lindy & Lucas.I also was ready to climb into the book and take out the girl who bullied Lindy and stalked Lucas.  I had suspicions about the identity of the 'Mirror Man' and I was right, but that wasn't that big of a leap to take.  I was shocked by the other crime related twist.Not wanting to give away any more than I may have, I will end by suggesting that any readers of erotic New Adult, who can handle some suspense and want to read a heartwarming love story should read this book!  There's so much more to the story, but you'll have to read it to learn it, and I'm betting you'll be glad you did!
