“Things about me: I play football-and girls.”We met Cuba in VBT and I couldn’t wait for his story. He was a football player and a heartbreaker. Yet he seemed like a good guy at heart. However, he thinks bad of himself  and doesn’t believe he deserves a HEA because of something that happened in his life years ago. He holds himself responsible and thinks his mother does as well. She’s extremely depressed and lives pretty much in a catatonic state.  While his father is barely around.“Love didn’t matter. Only ballet.”Dovey lived in the bad side of town but ended up with a scholarship to go to BA. She had a passion for being a ballet dancer and was determined to see her dream through. She also had her own secrets to bear, which meant keeping her distance from relationships and most of the people at BA. She lived with Sarah her old dancer teacher who got herself into a bit of trouble with the wrong people. Now Dovey would have to get them out of it no matter what the cost.“You can, you know.”“What?”“Be with me forever.”So to my surprise when I received the ARC for VWT I also received VWB.  VWB is the prequel to VWT. It gives you a bit of the background on what was going on before and up to when Dovey and Cuba became an item.“I thought I knew him… but he turned out to be a liar.”When you start VWT, Dovey & Cuba’s relationship is history and we get to read and find out what went wrong and why. I hope I’m not the oddball out when I say this but I honestly didn’t swoon for Cuba. I was a little disappointed in that because I really liked him in VBT. I know his reasons for being and acting the way he did but I just didn’t agree with the things he said/did.“You’ve changed.”“Pain will do that.”I felt awful for Dovey. I honestly wasn’t sure when this girl would get a break. Her boyfriend and best friend turned on her. Poor Sarah was sick and this left the only person she could truly depend on was herself.“You play a deep game, Cuba.”“So, I walked out of his life, beginning another one.”I was a little surprised at the way this story line went. I honestly wasn’t expecting it and I also wasn’t sure if we’d get an HEA. You’re definitely going to have to read this and find out how Cuba and Dovey’s story ends! Now I’m left wondering if Spider will get a book (because I want one) and I NEED Sebastian’s book ASAP!“How do you let go of a love that made you soar? It’s impossible.”I received a complimentary copy from the author/publisher in exchange for an honest review.
