My Rant:
This book tugged at my emotions. The main character Bryn
looses a lot in the beginning and these tragic events leaves her feeling like
she was abandon by the people she thought would be by her side the most.
Honestly from the beginning I felt that she and Tyler had something special
between them and why he up and left they way he did left such a void in Bryn.
From
the beginning I am crying my eyeballs out. Literally because the storyline was
so emotional but I am not only teary eyed because it is such a sad story, I am
mad so mad that I could not come to grips that at this point Tyler was
completely on my sugar honey ice tea list.
Watching him tear a whole in Bryn was so hard but he was not the only person to blame. Charlotte, Tyler and Bryn where close that you would not think that they would just walk away with out a text email or phone call. The mystery in the back-story keeps you interest peaked.

When Bryn moves back to savannah
to face her past, your torn gain emotional. I mean this author is really
working me over at this point. When Tyler comes back into the picture I am so
upset at him that I cant think straight when Bryn completely takes him back in
and opens her heart up to him again. I am screaming at Bryn this Guy broke your
heart and your taking him back like it didn’t even happen. Really? But as you get further into the story you
can’t help it that Tyler is slowly begin to warm your heart like the true
romantic he should have been form the beginning.
The whole time I am reading
this story I feel like there is something that’s leering about this story and
the author does a good job at keeping it hidden until the point of reveal. The
unraveling to mystery of why Tyler left completely shocked me because I did not
see that coming at all. I can say it was easy to connect to Bryn and her pain
and work with her through her issues, which made this book a complete soul
shaking, tear jerking, heart pumping emotional ride.
My Recommendation:
I rated this book 3 ½
out of 5 purple Rant Hearts.
