Rating: 5 out of 5

I rated this a 5 but would gladly give it a 6 if i could... I absolutely thoroughly totally enjoyed this page turner, this women can write just about anything, it's a must read in my book, tore me inside out but was very realistic & a lot of youth & about anyone can relate to these characters are going through!!!This story is definitely not a bright happy book, but I think that is why I am so drawn to this author, bc life isn't like that either. This book was very relatable & even though it was dark, you can see the passion & love poured into the roots of this story. I felt like Jessica took us for a dark, sexy adventure with these characters. I enjoyed the build up to when Nova & Quinton meet. There is a lot of turmoil & heart ache these two go through & in my eyes I am not sure how these two even keep up the act they do, I would be a mess or probably in a psyche ward somewhere highly medicated... They two are so incredible strong & don't even know it.The fact that they cross paths is a miracle & they each have their stories to tell (I'm their own way & time) & need each other as a support system. It's not even about love or lust, it's the fact they both want to help & save the other one & see the hope there is to become the human they once were... I know this book is not for everyone & you might view it in different eyes than what I did, but I enjoy books that are written to realistic life stories that you might not see first hand but know people are out there struggling with their life situations.
