This is a hard book to write a review on because I am not sure what my true feelings about the book are.  This story had very gritty, dirty realities written into it, it was not the fairytale romance in most books.  I am okay with the gritty, dirty realities however, I think it brought so many story lines into one book.  Colton didn't really mourn his father but he was a big part of the beginning of the book...I felt like his story was cut too short.  Other parts like Victoria's parents...they didn't really have much time in the story when she was away which I think kinda did an injustice to their story ending.  Keria was also left out of the story once Victoria was away.  I understand the book is mainly about Sterling and Victoria but then don't make the side characters so prominent and then let them fall flat when they would not really have fallen flat if this was real life.  They all should've been part of the story while Victoria was dealing with Sterling and his demons.  Speaking of Sterling and his demons...the descriptive writing for his detox was fabulous.  I felt his feeling however, Victoria didn't seem to disgusted with his behavior and was quick to become physical with him after all of that.This is where I am conflicted.  There were some great parts and then some parts that I felt were overlooked that were necessary.  An overall good read but I am not 100% sold on saying that I loved it.
