DETAILS
Synopsis
|
Some things are worth waiting for… Traveling thousands of miles from home
to enter college is the only way nineteen-year-old Avery Morgansten can
escape what happened at the Halloween party five years ago—an event that
forever changed her life. All she needs to do is make it to her classes on
time, make sure the bracelet on her left wrist stays in place, not draw any
attention to herself, and maybe—please God—make a few friends, because surely
that would be a nice change of pace. The one thing she didn’t need and never
planned on was capturing the attention of the one guy who could shatter the
precarious future she’s building for herself. Some things are worth experiencing… Cameron Hamilton is six feet and three
inches of swoon-worthy hotness, complete with a pair of striking blue eyes
and a remarkable ability to make her want things she believed were
irrevocably stolen from her. She knows she needs to stay away from him, but
Cam is freaking everywhere, with his charm, his witty banter, and that damn
dimple that’s just so… so lickable. Getting involved with him is dangerous,
but when ignoring the simmering tension that sparks whenever they are around
each other becomes impossible, he brings out a side of her she never knew
existed. Some things should never be kept quiet… But when Avery starts receiving
threatening emails and phone calls forcing her to face a past she wants
silenced, she’s has no other choice but to acknowledge that someone is
refusing to allow her to let go of that night when everything changed. When
the devastating truth comes out, will she resurface this time with one less
scar? And can Cam be there to help her or will he be dragged down with her? And some things are worth fighting for… |

Quote(s)
|
1.
I absolutely loathed being late. I hated for people to turn
and stare, which they always did when you entered a classroom a minute after
class started. 2.
Good luck and may the force of the
universe be with you today. 3.
Suicide was never the answer and if
anything, checking out was letting all of them win. 4.
I was back there, with his hands under
my skirt, and I couldn’t breathe or see; the fabric of the couch rough
against my cheek. 5.
Amazing how a look could feel like a
touch and I felt it in a way that put my earlier edginess to shame. 6.
I was stunned. I’d always wondered if
Blaine had done what he’d done to me to someone else and if my silence would
enable him to do it again. I had hoped not – I’d prayed that wouldn’t be the case. 7.
“Oh, sweetheart.” Softness crept into
voice and his stare. “We’ve all done stuff we aren’t proud of. It you knew…”
he shook his head. “The point is, I don’t know why you did this. I just hope
that whatever the reason was, it’s something that you’ve come to terms with. I
don’t think any less of you because of it. I never did.” 8.
Things can’t be that bad if the sun is
out and shining. 9.
What Cam had told me had been personal
and no matter my curiosity over whether or not she knew, I wasn’t going to
violate that trust between us. 10.
“How can there be any future for us if
you can’t be honest with me? If you can’t really trust that how I feel about
you is strong enough, then we have nothing. This is the shit that ends
relationships. Not the past, Avery, but the present.” 11.
Who did I have to blame for that?
Blaine? His parents? Mine? Did it matter? Never once did I stand up to my
parents and tell them what I thought. I just shut up and took it – took it
until I could run away. Problem was, running away
wasn’t working anymore. It never worked in the first place and how long did
it take me to figure that out? 12.
Never once did she think this was hard
on us. 13.
It just hadn’t happened overnight. Letting
go had been a slow process that took a bitch slap in the face to figure out. |

Reading Experience
|
Honestly, this is quite interesting to
read! I haven’t been able to read something so sweet for quite a while. The
emotion, the feelings inside… were too real. I can imagine that while I read
the story. And, the most important thing is that, the trust between Cam and
Avery. Ahhh! How I wish the next book is about them! I wish to see them being
married, have kids, and go on with their happily ever after~ |
Question(s)
|
1. I
still don’t understand, how she was being raped? By finger? |
