Review: Couldn't put it down

There is something about childhood friends who fall in love that just draws me in.  The development of this story was excellent and I found myself turning page after page. I absolutely loved the characters.  The author wrote in realistic dialogue and took her time in having their friendship turn into more.  I really savored every page leading up to them getting together.  What I didn't like was the conflict that broke them up.  It seemed to appear out of nowhere and felt very forced.  Jaxson stood by Sara through thick and thin since elementary school, and vowed his eternal devotion to her, so her mistrust and anger issues just seemed really over the top and misplaced.  I was happy when that part of the story was over and we were able to move on and concentrate on them getting back together. Overall, this was a really great debut novel and this author has a ton of potential, she just needs to invest in a good editor.  There were a lot of typos and incorrect use of wording.
