**I received this book from the
author for free in exchange for an honest review**
A great love
story between an unexpected couple, every girl k know has had a crush on the
male friend of their older sibling and this book is the embodiment of that
fantasy come true. Truely a swoon worthy book beautifully written and dealing
with problems which for some are very real.
The main characters Georgie and Noah are six years apart in age which makes the whole idea a little difficult to swallow however it was so superbly well written that it very much seemed like that had been taken into consideration. We first meet Georgie lying in a pool of her own blood after slitting her wrists over the death of her brother, we also meet Noah here where he saves her life. Even in the first event in this book- the horrific bathroom scene- we know these two characters are going to be connected. When Georgie gets out of the hospital following this event we find the two main characters in a completely different situation. The new look Georgie is sporting as well as the fact Noah failed to get Georgie to leave his thoughts throughout her hospital stay mean the two of them find themselves automatically drawn to each other. A night in the same bed only adds to the growing attraction between them and pretty soon after the pace of the book picks up and we are thrown into a whirlwind romance. I loved both of the main characters for their ability to overcome such life altering events throughout their life but more than that I loved their ability to seek comfort in each other and even love each other.
The secondary character that I found noteworthy was Ellie, Georgie's older sister and Noah 's best friend who accepted the couple very easily despite her love and connection to both of them.
The pacing was great starting off slow as the characters came to grips with the major event that took place as well as what caused it but then speeding up as the couple fell more in love with each other. I also liked that despite the age gap between the two characters the epilogue was based in the foreseeable future and in a place where both characters could potentially be happy.
The storyline was great and I liked that there was very little fall out between the characters just a couple in love and taking their time in a new relationship. I realise the issues faced by the characters are very real and found that they were very well portrayed given the impact the issues may have on people's lives.
4 stars. This author is quickly becoming a favourite.
