Zeke Daniels isn’t just a douchebag; he’s an a**hole. A total and complete jerk, Zeke keeps people at a distance. He has no interest in relationships—most a**holes don’t. Dating? Being part of a couple? Nope. Not for him.

So why does he keep thinking about Violet DeLuca?
Sweet, quiet Violet—his opposite in every sense of the word.
The light to his dark, even her damn name sounds like rays of sunshine and happiness and shit.

Omg, seriously? Zeke is not only a douchebag, he is also carrying around a huge chip on his shoulder. He just has no filter, and offends everyone with what comes out of his mouth and he makes no apologies !!! Unfortunately for Violet she has been given the job of becoming his tutor but on coming face to face with him she freezes and doesn’t let him know who she is! When he finds out you can just imagine his reaction.

Holy wow! I was so hooked, I really didn’t know wether to like him or slap him. My heart was sore for poor quiet Violet. But that girl was more than i ever expected. She was just irresistable, and her character was so endearing and full of strength.. This author wrote this book perfectly, each and every page brought me fistfulls of emotions, and i found my self having a conversation with my kindle pretty often !!! And just when i think that there is no redemption for Zeke this author throws your emotions into another loop. Expertly taking us from scowling to smiling. So many things happen that i could rave about but you really need to go into this book blind! The journey that both Zeke and Violet make is just beyond words and I was right there on every step of it with them. This book captured me right from beginning to end. I really didn’t think when I started this book that it would catch me so deeply. Definitely a must read! ...more

Sara Ney is the bomb!! It's very difficult to redeem a character like Zeke. It was literally a war between my head and my heart when reading this story. My head said "you cannot possibly like this a**hole" and my heart kept telling "just you wait"
He's rude to his coach, to kids, to friends and sometimes to just anyone who dares to approach him. And he likes it that way.
Talk about opposites attract, Violet is the sweetest, kindest girl you can ever meet. She works hard for college,loves kids, is ...more

3.5 Zeke Stars

At most I liked Zeke after he redeemed himself but it was REALLY hard to root for an angry guy with abandonment issues. Violet is way too nice for Zeke but I liked her, Kyle and Summer. Oz & James are still my faves :)
