This book was filled with lies, mystery, intrigue and love. As a debut book for Sera Bright I thought she did a great job. She created a story and characters that kept you wanting to turn the page. This story was told in both past and present tenses. The past was told in flashbacks and created the history between Ash and Katie. This book really is just the beginning to Ash and Katie's story. The writing and flow of this book was wonderful. The author did a great job with developing these characters and a storyline that will suck you in. I thought the pace was good...it's a fairly quick read but that is more because you can't turn the pages fast enough....so it moves the story along. This book is NOT a standalone....I would say that this book has a cliffhanger , but more of a To Be Continued. The couple ended in a great place, but the author created questions in your mind throughout the whole story and only a few were answered. This book will definitely leave you wanting more. This story is a friends to lovers story but also a second chance love story. I thought the amount of steam the author added was perfect.Ash and Katie had been friends since they were little. They were best friends and over time they grew to really love each other. I'm not going to say much about this storyline because I think this is a book you need to go into blind. Plus I don't do spoilers :). Katie and Ash were such broken characters and my heart broke for them on more then one occasion. They each had a crappy childhood and they truly did lean on each other to get through it. They both were willing to do anything to protect each other. You'll see that as the story unfolds. I really believe these two were really special characters and I can't wait to see what happens next.I would recommend this book to everyone. If you are looking for that sweet friends to lovers love story, but also a story that has the element of mystery and suspense then this one is for you.
