I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.  My review can been seen on my website [...] starting 12/20/13.Paige is a year late starting college because of a tragic fire causing her family to parish and she received severe burns.  After a year of many surgeries and lots of work on herself she start college to do what her parents would have wanted her to do.  She's not looking for any type relationship and even tries to keep herself in the safety of her own apartment but her roommate isn't having it.Clay and Paige literally run into each other in the book store.  She can't get away fast enough and he's intrigued wanting to learn more about the girl who seems to not be fazed by the most popular guy in school.  They meet again at a party and eventually they chat for a bit before Paige runs scared.  Not only that but Clay's ex, Hannah, has declared war on Paige if she doesn't stay away from Clay.Well you know how that's gonna go.  That's like stepping in a goat pen with food and turning your back on them thinking you'll be able to get to their feeding dishes without getting butted.  HA!  Fat chance.  Anyway, there's this entitlement factor with Hannah.  She appears to believe that Clay only belongs her just because she says so.  He's not having it.  He asks at every turn for Hanna to leave him and Paige alone.  Drama central with a twist at the end!!I liked this book a lot.  There were times when I thought Paige was a little whiny but she's dealing with a tremendous amount of pressure and trying to acclimate herself to college life.  That in itself isn't an easy feat especially coming in a year behind where you normally would have started.This book does end in a cliffhanger and I am so looking forward to the next book to see where Clay & Paige end up.
