I was given an ARC for an honest review of this bookI was going to give this book 4 stars, but I did a little research and figured out that there is a series before this and this is just kind of a spin off from that series.[...]Now I understand a little bit of my confusion. So I am giving this book 5 Stars.Yes, I was confused in the beginning there are so many characters, sometimes I would forget who they were.  So I def recommend that you read the Wrapped series first, you don't have to but it will help a lot.I have to say that this book sucked me in and did not want to let go.  There was just something about these characters that I loved, and it wasn't just the two main Characters Maddox and Harper. It was all of them.Now Maddox is such a troubled boy, when we meet him he is 16 and he has his set of problems and he takes it out in violence, and when that doesn't help him, he then turns to drugs and rock and roll.He loves Harper he has known that since he first saw her but with all the problems Maddox has going on in his head, his unable to give her what she wants or needs. And sadly right now the music and the drugs are helping him cope.Harper has also been in love with Maddox since she first laid eyes on him, and it is so hard for her to deal with all of Maddox's mood swings and the hot and cold feelings that she is getting from him. She tries to be faithful and she tries to give him everything he needs, but both of them are young and both of them are learning how to live, they want to live with each other but they can't seem to figure that out without hurting each other.I understand both of them, it is so hard to watch what they do to each other and how they continue to tear each other up, there seems to be little communication towards each other, but I know that is because of how young they are. They do continue to grow up, but they seem to do that more alone then together. But I still feel the instant connection that they have, and the deep love that the share towards each other. Sometimes you are meant to be with someone but you have to go through hell first. And that seems to be the case with Maddox and Harper. Will they have their HEA? I mean after all these two have been through. Especially Maddox, they deserve it.I am so glad I had book two to read right after this because when this one ended I wanted to scream!! This book is not for the faint of heart. It is not a sweet, sappy love that will have you going awe!It is real and it is sad, and it will tear out your heart, and it will having  you rooting for Maddox even when he is being his bad boy self.I love that  I got the chance to read these books. And I can't wait to read more from M.J. thanks for this story.. I am going to go and get the Wrapped Series right now!!! :)  So yes 5 Jamming, exploding stars. :)
