When I read the prologue I was instantly captivated. Here is a girl who has had something major happen to her and she handled it the wrong way. The prologue is told by an unknown male. He sits by her side while she's in a coma, he loves her. Who is he you ask? Well we'll get to that part, or I should say if you read the book, you'll get to that part. I will not let that secret out of the bag.Angel is off to start her life in another city, she is starting over and trying to move on from her past. I love how this love triangle is written. First she meets Kevin, who by the way I instantly like. Hazel eyes, tattoos that poke out of his shirt sleeves, I'm a sucker for tattoos. She meets Kevin first at the hardware store, then on her first day of college. He becomes her lab partner and this is where the banter begins and the sexual tension grows. I loved Kevin, then I hated Kevin. He is very alpha when it comes to Angel but she is holding back from him. Enter Roman, CEO of a major company. GQ, lived in Italy. This is where I begin to hate Kevin and swoon over Roman. He is a gentleman, hearts and flowers guy. The way this author writes the story you experience the tension between Kevin and Angel. I found myself cheering on Roman, hoping that she makes the right decision and picks the good guy.A third of the way into the book is where I began to really put the pieces of the puzzle together. Mystery man from the prologue is introduced and Holy Hell, I wasn't expecting that. Things start to unravel in the plot and I began clenching my Kindle. I was holding my breathe through the last few chapters, and thinking to myself "What the hell? This can't be happening?" If you like a book with a plot twist then you will love this one. I really liked the concept of this book. I can't wait to see where the second book takes Angel, Kevin and Roman. I'm giving this book 3 1/2 Stars!~Jen
