This story is about an awkward teen named Rosalie who falls for the schools bad boy. She soon discovers that her dad has married his long time girlfriend Joanne. When bad boy Shane shows up at dinner and is announced as Joanne’s ex’s son Rosalie doesn’t know what to do. This book is about a high school girls crash from being a teenager to adulthood. Rosalie has a difficult childhood living with her self obsessed mother and creepy stepfather. The book was well written. Unfortunately I found the book boring and kind of a teenage drama story like you find in any high school in the country. Not the best book I’ve read. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Rosalie and Shane meet while attending the same high school. Rosalie has a serious crush on Shane, the local bad boy that does good. She even stalks him in the hallways of their school. Then their lives change as several incidents happen quickly and separate them, several times before they find their happily ever after. I have had this eBook downloaded for a few months and decided due to the Memorial Day 3-day weekend, I would read it. I was not disappointed. The rollercoaster ride of Shane and Rosalie’s relationship was heart wrenching, tear jerking and magnificent. I could not stop reading this novel and was super tired for work the next day. It was well worth it to experience their love as it evolved over time.

Surprisingly, not that great. I had thought it would be better based on other ratings. A decent story, but it skipped and jumped around a lot, and wasn't as hot and steamy as I'd hoped.
