4.5 Stars!I am just going to start by throwing this out there… I want more books!!!! Hahaha!! I loved Riley and Zander, so a sequel would be AMAZING and also, spin-off books for her brothers Max and Carson. So, what do you say, C.A. Harms, does that sound like a plan to you? ;)Okay, let’s start from the beginning.A beaten up Riley managed to escape yet another drunken encounter with her current boyfriend, Parker…but not without quite a few physical bruises and emotional scars. She drove away to the one place she felt safe. Her brother’s apartment. Riley and Carson were extremely close so she knew he’d be able to help her. Except, Carson wasn’t alone that night. So when he saw that state Riley was in, he and his friends rushed over to Parker’s house. Suffice it to say that the police and Riley’s parents had gotten involved by this point.Time had passed and Riley had healed physically. She moved in with her best friend Kate into a new apartment, and life was finally back to being good. It was time to go out and have some fun again…and so they did. Riley, Kate, and Carson went to a party where she came across the very hot, hot, hot, Zander.“You have no idea how much I want to kiss you, Riley.”God!!! Zander was dreamy!!!!!! He carried his heart on his sleeve, he was kind, down to earth, fun, and not to mention, HOT. He had been through a lot already. He knew what heartache really meant, yet he kept on living life as best as he could. You could tell that from that first day, he was a goner where Riley was concerned, and he didn’t stop until he got his girl.Misunderstandings caused things to not get off on the right foot…not even close. However, little twists and turns kept bringing Riley and Zander together. Fate kept making sure they knew they belonged together. Until it finally happened.“You and me…I want it Riley.”Their connection and attraction went beyond what words can express. Simply put, Riley and Zander belonged together in every way. But see, Zander had a few secrets. Secrets that kept getting in the way of his relationship with Riley. And then, there was also Beth. God, did I dislike her!!! She irritated me beyond belief and I felt so bad for Riley! With her extremely snotty comments and actions, Beth kept putting Zander in difficult situations that definitely caused angst and drama throughout the story line.“Zander held my heart in his hands and had the ability to break me.”Riley and Zander had a few obstacles along the way…to say the least, but it was amazing seeing them come out stronger each and every time. They deserved to be together and they surely deserved a happily ever after. So yes, I finished reading with a huge smile across my face. The ending was a bit open, so I’m really hoping we get more Zander and Riley in the near future. And like I mentioned in the beginning, spin-offs are more than welcome too!! I want more of Carson and Kate and Max and Bree. =) Go one-click and meet Zander!“This girl had my heart in the palm of her hand and I would spend my life making her smile.”
