Ethan is the boy who climbed into my bedroom every night.
He's everything I love.
Laced with everything I despise.
He's every happy memory.
And every shattered dream.
He's my everything.
But he broke every part of me.
I'm supposed to hate him.
But I can't.
I don't know how.
He's everything I love.
Laced with everything I despise.
He's every happy memory.
And every shattered dream.
He's my everything.
But he broke every part of me.
I'm supposed to hate him.
But I can't.
I don't know how.
BROKEN DREAMS: This flits from Past to Present swiftly and is spoken in singular POV.
THEN: Leslie and Ethan met under unusual circumstances, he was just the boy she tried to save, and she was just the girl he tried to show that there was more to life than ballet.
At age ten new neighbours move into the house right across from theirs, a family with two boys, one boy in particular catches her attention when she sees him on their porch seeming to be crying, she calls out to him asking him if he’s ok, seeing he was a person in need she told him to climb into her bedroom window, that was the outset for a beautiful friendship. From then on out whenever he needed an escape he’d make his way over to her house and through her bedroom window where he would bunk down for the night on her floor.
He was the boy who crawled through my window and captured my heart.
Thinking they are going to have the happy ever after they deserve sadly things don't go to plan and we see them going their separate ways never to see each other for many years.
My dreams shattered..My destiny destroyed..A cruel twist in my fate..
NOW: Leslie is now living in Arizona and hasn’t been back to her hometown in over eight years, she’s also turned her back on the only boy she ever loved and a mother who just never understood her. But that one phone call begging her to come home because her father has taken ill has her racing across country on Christmas Eve.
This was a real enjoyable read, had all the feels all you could want in a second chance romance, it does flit from past to present chapter to chapter which generally I don't tend to mind, but with this book I think it could be done better, instead of one year later, one month later etc it would flow better if just says 'Past' other than that minor detail I wouldn't change anything about this book, this wasn't just a boy meets girl, girl meets boy lada lada book there was so much more going on in this book.
So to sum this book up, if your after all the feels, angst to feed your soul, a boy that will capture your heart then I highly recommend this book come release day. This is definitely one author you'll want to keep an eye out for..
