THIS BOOK IS AWESOME!!!! 
 "Because in our minds, the lies we lived created the perfect balance between chaos and calm. And while the chaos could kill us, the calm had us aching for one more second, one more moment of self-destruction" 
 It was so totally not what I expected. I went down a totally different route from where I had anticipated, but such a great book. At the end of Combative we were left with a massive cliff-hanger; I was expecting this book to continue from there, but without giving too much away, it doesn't!!! 
 In Combative I was cheering for Ky, in this book I forgot all about him and fell in love all over again with Nate DeLuca! *sighs* 
 This book takes us through a whole different period in the story and we are taken back by 6 years, back to where the story begins. 
 Jay is such an amazing story teller. This book has it all - sex, drugs, dealers, murder, attempted rape, guns, secrets, lies, sickness, health, sadness, tears, happiness, friendship and love! As always, there are twists and turns and surprises along the way.... 
 One of my favourite bits from the book which made me smile was with the friendship between Nate and Tiny when they were looking for leaves!! I'll say no more but I loved this bit! 
 Who knows where these 2 stories will connect and what will happen in between but I CAN NOT WAIT for the 3rd in the Trilogy now! And we can certainly be sure that however it goes and whatever happens it will be FANTASTIC!!!!
