A year of freedom for Ashleigh to live the way she chooses and not conform to the society her family considers the norm.
Can I have the life of Ash… or more specifically can I have my own Archie. This book roped you in from Chapter 1 and kept you wanting to read until you finished it, Ivy Lane certainly wrote this book well.
