I swear to God if I have to read another book where the girl saves herself for her one true love while he is out slutting it up for a few years I WILL DRIVE OFF A CLIFF Hell, how bout for once the Heroine is out banging dudes while the Hero is the faithful virgin? Or better yet neither of them are whores? Beautiful story but it was ruined by Leo's manwhoreness. Maybe I'm a little harsh but this is like the 6th book in a row I've read where the girl is the faithful virgin and the guy is a manwhore and I'm just done. DONE!! I tell you!

It was a nice read..predictable..I knew from the the start that one plus one is two..
Abuse took me by suprise s little..
What bothered me was..how we got to know every outfit so perfectly..she wore skinny jeans, black, blue fitted top, grey hoodie and even snickers..he wore his black slacks..oh well you get the picture..
I like the idea of a young love that lasts forever and just love the gay friend..how cliche right:)
HEA was really sweet..with cherry on top even..

Evie was a constant in this story. I really admired her; I have worked with children like her in the past, and I can only hope they turn out like her. She seemed real.
Jake was, well, confusing to me.
Plot- I liked the idea behind Evie and Leo falling in love when they were foster kids. I am not 100% sure how I like how the plot was carried out. I can't say much without giving away spoilers. It was a sexy, romantic read, nonetheless.

I really enjoyed this story. Evie made a good life for herself considering where she came from.

**SPOILERS**
First I will start off by saying Leo is hands down one of my favorite book boyfriends ever.
I felt so much heartache for Evie for so long, until I felt 10x the ache for Leo. I couldn't fathom that there are actually children out there who go through these same struggles everyday. It made my heart hurt.
Leo. Leo. You truly captivated my heart. I wanted to be right there with you--helping you, holding you, and to just be there for you.
Leo & Evie were so incredibly lucky to have each other, to have what they shared chemically. There are people who will never find even an ounce of that.

WARNING: ADULT SMUT CONTENT and STRONG LANGUAGE
I normally never read books like this, but it grabbed me from the first page. The story of Evie, Willow and Leo (foster kids) is heartbreaking, yet a sad reality.
This book is somewhat predictable. There was a grammatical error on one of the pages that confirmed my suspicions about Jake. But there was still enough to hold me and keep reading.
