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…
BOOK REVIEW by Michelle:
Cam...CAMERON HAMILTON! Please stand up!
Yes! You. You fun, gorgeous book boyfriend.
Cameron is all kinds of things a girl would trip over herself to fall in love with. He is cheeky, adorable, oh-so-sexy, he has a secret, he is determined, he is flawed... back to oh-so-sexy.
Avery Morgansten has a deep and terrifying secret. As the reader we can do the math. But then you got that added OH-DEAR-LORD-YOU-POOR-THING, twist.
Cam and Avery’s worlds collide...like literally, she collides into him.
Sweet baby Jesus, Blue Eyes was...
He was gorgeous in all the ways that made girls do stupid things. He was tall, a good head or two taller than me, and broad at the shoulders, but tapered at the waist. An athlete’s body—like a swimmer’s. Wavy black hair toppled over his forehead, brushing matching eyebrows. Broad cheekbones and wide, expressive lips completed the package created for girls to drool over. And with those sapphire-colored eyes, holy moly...
Who thought a place named Shepherdstown would be hiding someone who looked like this?
I KNOW!!!
There is much wooing, baking and egg making to be had.
“Well to be honest, I was planning to woo you with my banana nut bread, but that shit ain’t happening now. So all I have left is my delicious eggs.”
I took a bite of the cheesy goodness. “It is really good, but you’re not wooing me.”
“ Oh, I’m wooing.” He opened up the fridge and grabbed a bottle of OJ. Pouring two glasses, he sat one in front of me. “ It’s just all about the stealth. You don’t realize it yet.”
*siiiggghhh*
Cam is the reformed bad boy. He is lovin’ on Avery.
BUT!!
Avery has her debilitating secrets she keeps hidden.
Will this ruin their friendship?
Well you are going to have to read!
The #1.5 Trust In Me, is from Cameron’s pov and even though I know the story already, I feel like I must take a peek and have a read.
It is CAM!
Be With Me is next on my list before I get onto Cam’s pov, I think I need to forget some of this story line first. I will let Teresa ( Cam’s sister ) and Jase ( Cam’s buddy) tell me their story first.
An easy to read, fun story about love and a book boyfriend who just makes you go nawwww...and also those secrets that lurk in the background.
