Will this leave one of them without their true love?This was my first book by author Kaylee Rynn.  I enjoyed the story that she told with these characters.  Tatum and Leah’s relationship was exactly what best friends should be.  Blaise and his family is also what everyone wishes their families were like.  And the underlying story broke my heart a few times, shed a tear or two and yelled at Tatum to stop fighting her attract and just jump Blaise.  All the side characters were a perfect mesh for this story.  Looking forward to more from this author.
