My Thoughts:
The author was
kind enough to send me the book in exchange for an honest review. This
book was amazing! I can't believe it's a debut novel. I loved Angel
and Jasmine so much; even if they are a little bit stubborn about their
relationship.
Angel just came back from the marines with some
guilt that is eating him away, but as soon as he sees Jasmine the demons seem to
stay at bay and he almost feels like his old self. In the time Angel was away
life has knocked Jasmine down a few time and she hasn't been able to
get back up.
This story is very unique. This book kept
me up to the wee hours of the night, but I just couldn't put it down; I had to
know what was going to happen between Angel and Jasmine. Also this book is told
in various perspectives so, that also had part in keeping me up all night; since
I wanted to find out what happened between the rest of
the characters in the book. This book had me laughing,
crying, angry and swooning over all the hot guys. The book ended with the
perfect cliffhanger that leaves you craving the second book. I did find Angel
to be a little possessive towards Jasmine, but Jasmine is not
the kind of girl to take crap so, it all evens out. I really enjoyed this book
and I'm glad the author contacted me. I’m currently reading the second one
so I will have the review up soon.
