[Stephanie Mitchell · Rating 5 out of 5]

There are no words to describe how I'm feeling right now... this isn't a hot steamy book, like a lot of the new books out there and I enjoyed the change. I wasn't sure I was going to like this book, but I'm glad I decided to take a chance.

Rainie has a scrap life in the beginning. A mother who doesn't care and a stepfather who is a waste of space. I hate (dislike is too nice a word) Mitch and Rainie's mom.. those too deserve each other for what they put Rai through.. Then Rai runs away and literally falls onto Leighton (Angel in disguise) Leighton is Rai's white knight.. She doesn't want to feel anything, doesn't want to stay to long in one place, afraid Mitch will find her, but there is something about Leighton and she just can't turn away.. Leighton is her rock, especially when Mitch comes back and she realizes who Leighton really is.. even when Leighton hears the whole story he is still by her side...

I laughed, screamed, and cried while reading this book.. towards the end I didn't think I was going to be able to finish they way the book was written, but I did and I'm so glad.. like I said above this is a change from all the erotica out there but in the end this book is so much better

Bloody hell that was AMAZING! I loved every bit of grammar, every word and every emotion that crossed through my body like some sort of electric shock. That was the BEST book I have read in 2014 and I would highly recommend this to ANYONE who is looking for a sad, sweet, romantic thrilling book. Buy this one. And I would get some tissues whilst you are at it too
Well done Sharlay. BEST EVER! Can't wait to read then next lot of books you bring out!

This book left me speechless!!! Oh the emotion I felt while reading this. I truly went through every emotion from heart wrenching sadness to happy to sadness to smiling to tears to holding my breath in suspense to laughing to just the OMG moments. For me this was an amazing story of how love can survive the unthinkable and be even stronger! These characters painted their way into my heart and will be there for along time.

This is a story for the true romantics. Featuring an abused female teenager and her boy who fell for her at first sight. The story is about how they get past her history of violent abuse to end up truly in love, however there are some really good twists in the story even up to the last paragraphs before they have their " happy ever after". This author is maturing with her stories getting stronger and more fluid. Entertaining read and worth having on your "to read" shelf .

The story is captivating and the characters are lovable! The only reason it didn't get a 5 is because there were a lot of grammatical errors in it that would throw me off for a few seconds. Other than that it's a good easy read.

Holy crap! The MOST painfully sad, yet beautiful story. I'm going to need a bit for my shredded heart to mend in order to write a more complete review. So much pain but so much love. Completely shattered.
