3.5 starsA complimentary copy provided by the author for a honest review.Now, I leave ALOT out of my review due to not liking to give spoilers, but trust me, there is zoo much WTH, WTF moments in this book for me.This was the first book for my by this author and I was really excited to read. I have a couple of her books and just haven't read YET.  The prologue to this book really hooked me in and I couldn't wait to read.Karly- After surviving an abusive childhood by the hands of her father while her mother turned the other way, she finished college and moves to start her life over.  Over the course of the book, we learn that Karly also dealt with the loss of her high school boyfriend, Bradley( put in motion by HIS mother) and also her college boyfriend Neil. And how those relationships ended.Karly is a very strong person and I really liked how the author didn't make her this weak, damsel in distress.Nicholas- 28 y/o single parent to his daughter 4 y/o Emma after his wife Jamie decided her career as a model was more important than being a mother and wife. Nicholas barely survives dealing with the loss of his marriage before he decides to get clean and put Emma's welfare first.Karly moves in with Alexis, who we find out is Nicholas' sister.  Karly and Nicholas were brought together by the meddling sister, Alexis. She sees 2 great people that she loves lonely and needing one another.I did struggle with these 2 characters getting together. Nicholas to me was a jerk.  He wasn't very nice to Karly. He didn't like her around other men but he didn't want to be with her either. He couldn't "risk" Emma not being his priority.Again, I did struggle with getting ion the story but it eventually grabbed me in again and the ending was a WTH happened moment. I'm so confused and intrigued and to the reason for this twist. Also PISSED as all get out as to what happens between Karly/Nicholas/Jamie & then Karly/Nicholas.  Left on such a CLIFFHANGER!!  I'm going to want to know what the heck happened.I look forward to reading the other books from S. Moose.
