I really enjoyed this installment of the Blow Hole Boys series. It seemed impossible for me to like any of the guys in the band better than Zeke, but Finn surpassed him for me!  Faith is an innocent preacher's daughter who falls for the bad boy which seems cliché but it really isn't in this story. Finn may not be as bad as he appears. The flowers scene (To avoid spoilers I won't elaborate) was too sweet!  Finn was real. He was damaged, misunderstood, unsure of himself, and desperately fighting these "mushy" feelings he was beginning to have for a girl like Faith who was not his normal type of girl at all. Faith is trapped by her father's faith and misguidance of religion and what that means for how you can treat your children. She wants to "learn to live" instead of being "told how to live" by her father. The struggles that both characters faced were true to life: Abuse, neglect, heartache, mistrust, lack of self-confidence, things that would break most people when all piled together.  I enjoy the way Tabatha forms her chapters by switching between POV's and how she doesn't repeat scenes, but still manages to elaborate a little on what the other character had been thinking in the past scene or what led up to their reaction.  This story was heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. Make sure to have tissues close by if you are the emotional type (as I am).  I've read every book this author has published and have yet to be let down, which places her at the top of my favorites.  The author always manages to make you get lost in her world with her characters and to forget that real life is going on around you, those are my favorite books to read because it is the reason I read!
