Trying to keep
her past in the past, Avery has spent the most recent years of her life trying
to stay in the background, being unnoticed by everyone, that is until she
stumbles across Jase at a frat party.
Jase likes women
and sex, commitment is the last thing on his mind. But his life is thrown
upside when his mum tries to commit suicide, showing him not to take things for
granted, so when he sees Avery at a frat party standing out like a sore thumb,
he can’t stop himself, he needs to know her.
After reading
reviews for this book and hearing all the hype about it, I was so excited to
finally read it and I must say I was far from disappointed. At the beginning of
the book I thought we were going to have to wait until Jase found out what
Avery was hiding before we did, but Kendall sneakily dropped hints throughout
the book about what was going on with Avery or as Jase calls her “Whistle” and
it helped with the suspense of when Jase was going to find out.
I
liked Jase’s character that we never got to see his ‘bad boy’ days so to us the
reader he was always the Jase we got to meet, the loving and caring person. The
boy that made your heart race and stop at the same time with his kindness and
forwardness.
I
felt as if Kendall wrote Avery’s character really well, you really could see
her insecurities and her doubting herself, there were no moments where suddenly
Avery would be strong, like in some books, this was a gradual thing, which was
helped along by Jase being her ‘life coach.’
I
felt the story line for this book was different to some, with a sex scandal and
an attempted suicide, but also the same in some ways as there was a love
triangle and arguments, but all that makes for get reading. The first few sex
scenes had me wanting Avery to let Jase carry on because I was so into the
books, but I am glad that she didn’t because I felt as if when they finally got
to have sex, it completed the book without there having to be a ‘happily ever
after ending’ that and Avery getting on the fact she took nude pictures of
herself and they went around her school.
Her and Jase are together and it hasn’t
been easy them getting there and it probably won’t be easy after that, but that’s
life and I feel that Kendall wrote the ending as if it would happen in everyday
life, no false hopes just reality.
