Imagine a grief so life shattering that you can't cope, this is the life of Sophia. She feels pressured to live up to expectations that aren't what she wants in life. So when the going gets tough, Sophia just gets going. She's had enough of her parents, great expectations, and never feeling good enough. She'll make a life for herself elsewhere and open up to the great wide world.Corbin was left behind. The sting of that and guilt of secrets he's kept has made him stay to keep an eye on his father.  He feels like he's in a dead end life and it doesn't show any sign of improving anytime soon. He'd love to run, but he doesn't believe in not taking care of responsibilities.It doesn't take long for Sophia to catch Corbin's eye.  When she does the gloves are off, he's determined to get to know this woman. From first sight the attraction was there. They both fight it and make wrong turns, one right after another, before finally giving in to what everyone else already sees. They are perfect for each other. This isn't a story of opposites attract. This is two halves of a dysfunctional whole coming together.  Throughout the story they continually are supporting one another and opening up like they never have before. That's the start of true romance.I read this book in one sitting because I couldn't put it down. The more you find out about Sophia and Corbin's tragedies the more addictive the story gets. I'm assuming there will be a sequel because there are still some unresolved issues at the end. This doesn't make it any less enjoyable. I actually found the ending uplifting. The flow and events are perfect in this book. The characters a flawed, lovable, comical, and some of the most genuine you'll ever read about.This book is 5 STARS and more.A story that reads this well and has so many lovable characters has to be a series.I received an arc copy of this book for my honest review.
