I have waited for book 2 in this series for what seems like forever. I love Riley and Josh and in book 2 we pick up right where we left in the last book. Riley and Josh have finally come together, their love is so strong and intense and beautiful. This is their last year in High School and then they are off to college. One thing they are both certain of that their love is meant to be, that one and a million and a million kind of love. Andrea Michel gives readers of slew of emotions stemming from happiness, angst, joy, passion and a sense of thrill. I cannot tell you how much I loved this book.“I’ve never wanted anything more than I want you, Josh. You have nothing to worry about. Josh, I’ve never felt this. This moment like this scares me so much because I keep thinking it’s all a dream. I’m going to wake up and not have this anymore. All the stars will disappear.”“Baby, I’m not going anywhere. I’m here with you. You’re my missing piece, too, Shaw. Nothing matters more to me than you. I thank God every day that we finally made it here – together. You asks what happens next for us. We just get better baby – stronger.”Riley and Josh have been friends for a long time and held back their feelings due to a tragic accident. But it is that friendship that makes their love story so entrancing and powerful. Josh and Riley have everything a couple wants, they have the passion, the need to be with each other and the feeling and knowledge of knowing they do not want to be without each other; they just know this is who they are meant to be with forever.“Listen, I know you and Riley have a good thing going on, and I don’t want to mess tht up It’s not that simple, though, Josh. Maybe Riley can transfer next semester and be with you.”“Dad, that girl means everything to me, dad. Everything. Nothing matters more to me than her – not even football – and you’re telling me the best decision is to leave her? That isn’t an option for me.”Book 1 was hot, but get your fan out because book 2 is way more hotter and steamier; Josh has picked up his game and let me tell you, he can bring it.“Don’t hide your eyes. The sounds you make are the sweetest f***ing thing I’ve ever heard. You liked it rough?”“Yes.”“As much as I’d love to take you like this, I don’t want to f*** you this time. I want to take my time enjoying you, to feel every inch of you shiver when I make love to you. I want to crawl inside of you and watch you come undone. Do you want me, pretty girl? Say it!”“I want you, I want you to make love to me, Josh. I want to give you everything I have and more, because you have given me my life back, and I love you.”I have rooted for this couple even before they got together, in the start of this book their relationship was so strong but all too soon secrets, insecurities and distance causes the couple to distance themselves. Their ex’ do not want to see them happy and they will not walk away and let them have their happily ever after. Communication is something Josh and Riley do not do well and that is a main problem here. When Josh and Riley go to different colleges, they both start to question what the other what is doing. There are some parts in this book that get creepy and how one of them handles the situation will really tick you off. I swear just like in Book 1, book 2 ends in a Cliffhanger, am I mad NOPE, Josh and Riley need more than 2 books to tell their story. You see Josh and Riley are powerful, enchanting and FOREVER.“The idea is that no matter where I am, the stars will shine for you….to remind you of all the reasons why I love you. The reasons are endless. The stars will never disappear.”“No matter where you are, know that I’m looking up at those stars thinking of you and wishing we were counting them together.”I received a complimentary copy from the author/publisher in exchange for an honest review.
