I was very hesitant when I started this book. Jaycee is pretty young and the opening scene where she breaks into Reed's house had me expecting a heroine that was immature, spontaneous, and a poor decision maker. Thank goodness the author proved me wrong.I loved Jaycee. The opening scene IS ill-thought-out, but she has her reasons for doing it in the first place. Once you really delve into her life, you start to adore Jaycee. She's strong-willed and doing whatever she can for her brother and sister. She's in a truly terribly situation and just making the best of it that she can. She'd rather work herself ragged than accept handouts.Enter Reed. This sexy charmer is exactly what Jaycee needs. He doesn't feel any pity for her; rather, he respects Jaycee instantly and wants to help any way he can. She's immediately overwhelmed, but he does what he can to ease her into it.I loved Jaycee's brother and sister. They're both perfect without being too cliche or stereotyped.I really can't say enough about how much I adored this book. The characters are all realistic and lovable, the plot believable, the story exciting. I'll definitely be looking into more books from this author in the future.
