So one thing I have to say about Danielle Sibarium is she knows how to make me cry. I became a fan of hers when I came across For Always and I absolutely fell in love with Jordan and Stephanie. I related to Stephanie in some ways that made me just feel that character and like Steph I fell in LOVE with Jordan. So when I found out that she had another book out, Heart Waves, I bought it without a second thought. It's different from For Always in a good way. So at the end of Heart Waves, Danielle left me with questions, lots of them. Is Jenna and Reese really going to end up like Romeo & Juliet? Who the hell is this Tyler guy? What's Reese hiding? What's going on between Reese and Tyler that he has to warn Jenna to stay away from him??Questions upon questions I hoped were going to be answered in Breaking Waves... some are answered but by those being answered in only fueled more questions. *sigh* The thing is that's what makes a good book...the questions, the constant wonder on what's behind the next door or who else is going to make an appearance and totally blow everything you thought you knew out of the water. I knew from the first page that this book was going to break me. Hell I knew it was going to break me with the short teasers Danielle would post on FB or Twitter but the diehard fan in me pushed through and sucked it up... I was crying like a baby more than once starting around page 15ish. Why you ask well you're going to have to read it to find out because I don't like spoilers!Let's just say something major and when I say major I mean MAJOR goes down. An example of what had me balling, like seriously ugly crying that I had to pause for like 10 minutes to clean myself up and calm down in order for me to continue..."I love you!" he spoke through clenched teeth when he pulled his mouth off mine. "I will always, always love you. Just like Romeo and Juliet."Seriously Reese absolutely killed me with this....dead. So while I'm on the subject of Reese. I LOVE him seriously LOVE him. He may have a past and might be hiding something but he is the sweetest boy and he absolutely loves Jenna. There's no question about that.Now Jenna....*sigh* Danielle I absolutely love you but Jenna got on my nerves in this book. I felt like she wasn't totally being true to herself and Reese for that matter. Could I understand why she did some of the things she did? Yes. Do I agree with them? Not so much. I feel like she took a long time figuring things out and let Reese down.Which brings me to Tyler. I DON'T TRUST HIM. At all. No questions ask I think he has a hidden agenda and Jenna is playing right into his hand. There's just some things not connecting with him for me. There's a part in the book that makes me sympathize with him and I slightly feel sorry for him, but I also feel like he's a walking contradiction. I feel like whatever is behind Reese's secret has something to do with Tyler and his father. I'm #TeamReese 100%.I also love that Danielle showed a nicer side to Mike, because he was a total ACE in Heart Waves when it came to Jenna. He grew up some and started treating Jenna better. Just when Jenna's best friend Grace started acting bitchy, I'm totally not fond of her at all in this book. Which is sad because Jenna needed her best friend even if she never said it and she wasn't there, cue Tyler and his wannabe understanding self. Sorry if you're a Tyler fan...I really don't trust the guy.For all you Reese fans, this book is mostly about Tyler...*hides* though I wasn't a fan of that I understand it and I'm sure you all will too. I would be lying if I didn't say I wasn't concerned about what this means for Jenna and Reese and with the way the book ended.... Let's just say I hope our modern tail of Romeo and Juliet ends better than the one written by Shakespeare.  I can't wait to see what happens in the next book.
