My Review:
A great start to a new series that kept this reader turning its pages to the very end. Jam packed with hotness, fun and emotion. A great read for any fans of the genre.
Chrissy left her home town some time ago for various reasons. One of them being to pursue her dream career. She's just about succeed in that area and had to go back to her childhood home to help out her brother. What she gets is a TON of bad luck with a side of good. One of the good things being a new found love with an old friend...
This was my first time reading anything from this author and I really enjoyed her writing style, characters and the whole shebang! I look forward to what's to come :)
