Rating: 4 out of 5

This is a story about 2 broken people finding one another and trying to make it work and letting the other inside.Quick read, although it took me a little longer than other fast paced books. It is very detailed and thorough. I was confused at first about what exactly was going on with Sophia, but eventually we learned some of what she went through. I still have questions regarding what happened to her, like how did it happen exactly?Sophia is running from her problems and runs away to a small podunk town. There she meets Corbin. Corbin has his own secrets, which he keeps locked inside but hasn't run away, he's stayed behind to keep the secrets.Very good debut novel, and will probably read the next book. I'd love to know more about Tobie, as I truly loved her and my heart broke for her in the end.So glad that both the characters found each other, even though they are damaged. They can heal one another. So proud when they both finally faced some of their demons and stood up for themselves.Besides not finding out what exactly happened to Sophia that day, I really felt that this book could use another good edit. It seemed a little rough around the edges. But, I was given a copy in exchange for my honest review for the blog tour, so I'm not entirely sure if it was the final version.Overall good book, not what you expect, not all sappy instalove or all dark tragedy, despite Corbin referring to their love as a tragedy."It's a F*ing tragedy," he murmurs against my skin, lightly kissing my neck."what is?" I don't mean for it to sound like nothing but air but I'm concentrating too much on containing myself."You and me, sweet Sophia. Nothing that feels this good ends well.""What is this mess, Corbin?""The consequences." He pulls on my hand so I move closer."Consequences of what?" I ask, letting him guide my chin with his fingers until my lips hover over his."Our tragedy." He kisses me gently. "Our truth."
