Publisher's summary

At 17, Layla Weston is already starting over. Having lost both her parents and grandparents, and with nowhere else to go, Layla is moving from Florida to a small town in North Carolina to live with the only family she has left: her estranged uncle and aunt. The last five years of Layla’s life were spent appeasing her lessthan-loving grandmother, followed by being her grandfather’s caretaker. Growing old before her time, Layla lost her identity. Now she must learn how to allow herself to be the one who is cared for and loved. Life takes an unexpected turn when Layla meets Will Meyer. His breathtaking good looks are enough to catch her eye, but his sincerity and passion are everything she needs to find the strength and confidence she lost - and lead her into love. When tragedy once again strikes Layla’s life, her hope is all but completely crushed. Through it all, Layla learns what it means to truly love and be loved.

loved it !

So good I had to get the rest of the trilogy. The plot was had a nice spin, so although I thought I knew the ending, I really didn't.

Nice beginning

Abrupt ending. This is a nice story about teens coming of age. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.

good listening

Wanted to buy the next book right away.. I personally thought there was a lot of over analysing but I guess that goes with teenage angst.

Great book that does not disappoint

Oh my-this book started well-kept going-and now-ready for book 2! So my best review will be at the end of trilogy to see if the storyline can continue.

No Ending

The only reason I continued on with this book was to see what would happen at the end. Big surprise, no end. It's like the author couldn't figure out how to wrap it up, so she just put down her pencil and walked away. Can't believe her editor let it end like this. I won't read anymore of her books.

Good listen

I think the story in itself was good. I did enjoy it. Although I pretty much predicted some outcomes, I was surprised by the twist at the end. I do feel like for what little story was told, it was drawn out way to long in one book! And now there’s three more books to read just find out what happens. Also there wasn’t much of an ending. I was disappointed with that. But overall, I liked it and am interested in finding out what happens, so I will be purchasing the next book. I think it’s a good read or listen for any age, but especially for the younger audience.

I liked the book

But I felt it a little drawn out and repetitious. Bot I liked the story line.

Well written and worthwhile listen

This story is incredibly well written. The narrator provides a depth to the characters that only enhances the story. I loved this book and found the entire series thoughtful, well written, and well developed. I look forward to reading more of Ms. Grant's work.
