So, SOOOO good.... until the big reveal.
This is the story of Mia and Dean who meet in their last year of high school, fall in love, break up, and then, turn their heartbreak and insecurities into one big fiery ball of resentment. 10 years later they must deal with their anger and their broken hearts and try to find a way back to each other.
I love a good love/hate romance. And this book delivered it in spades!! I love-loved it. But I was a little disappointed with Dean's point of view and I'm not sure just how forgiveable he really was. To me, it seemed as if the ten years had not changed him at all. I think that in this instance I needed more drama, more betrayal.... more justification.
Still, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. A terrifically great leap into the world of NA rage and resentment. I'll definitely be reading more by this author.
Recommendation: For fans of NA love/hate love stories.
A great read!

"Ok so obviously this book is not going to be about mushy declarations of love in the springtime. Just look at the title. But seriously... WTF just happened!??!! Bastard. Jerk. Asswipe. Pooshitface Dick. By the way... I am SOOO hooked already."

Great review A! Glad you loved! I totally agree with you on the reveal...I was shocked for real. I just thought for sure it was going to have something to do with his dad. I was sooo wrong! Ha!

Me too! I thought his dad had intervened or something equally wicked! And I thought that in the end, the rumour-spreading was unforgiveable!
