I was gifted a copy of this in exchange for an honest review.OMG I LOVED this book! It was one of those books that you need to make sure you clear your schedule for because you will not be able to put this down!! And Drew…… well lets just say I NEED MORE!! He's such an arrogant arse but you can't help liking him!The basis of the story is Holly, the female lead, who has a lot of crap she's dealing with and has a real hatred of with people touching her. She craves normality and you get a deep sense of her desperation to be her old self. Then she meets Drew, the lead singer of a popular band and immediately the sexual chemistry is ignited and surprisingly for her, she is able to tolerate him touching her.The roller coaster ride that this book takes you on will have you laughing, crying, getting frustrated but also getting a little hot under the collar with the sexual chemistry between the main characters. I love the writing style too and felt within a few short pages so drawn into the story. Drew sees the sadness in Holly and although he has man sized issues of his own, he wants to help her. Her issues cause problems of their own and her anxiety is dreadful at points, scaring Drew as well as you the reader too. Drew needs help as much as Holly but in different ways and you do feel that at times things are just not going to work out and that the issues they both have are just too much but you end up rooting for them too.There is an array of supporting characters all of whom develop the story well and add depth to the leading characters too. I seriously felt for Carter, Holly's brother, too!I want to and could seriously go on for hours about this book but I don't ant to spoil it for anyone wanting to read it! It is a fantastic stand alone and although a reasonably speedy yet really involved read. I'd love to hear a bit more about Drew though and his history. I will definitely be reading more by Alexis and highly recommend this to you!
