I'm so glad I reserved reviewing this book until after my second read. After the first, I'd had some concerns about how quickly and easily the relationship between Jacqueline and Lucas became physical. I'd thought she might be a bit hesitant after what happened with Buck. But during my second reading, I didn't feel that way at all. Everything felt perfectly paced and realistic. 
 I loved this story. So much. Both characters were real and realistic. Jacqueline was string and brave and acted appropriately for a girl who'd been dumped by her boyfriend of almost 3 years, and for a girl who was sexually assaulted. Her actions and reactions were perfect. I liked her a lot, and that's something considering I usually find most heroines annoying. Not Jacqueline. She was really great and I could relate to her well. 
 And then there's Lucas. Oh, Lucas. He was just...amazing. *big sigh*. Not only was he sweet and smart and protective and sexy as heck, he was also broken. I LOVE broken boys. I can't specifically point out why, but I'm always drawn to broken boy characters, and Lucas is one of the best I've read. 
 Just...everything about this book is amazing. Every. Thing. I don't say that about many books, so trust me when I say it about this. This will definitely go on my shelf with all the books-to-be-reread-over-and-over. It's one of those that I feel sad to finish, that I want south more of because I fell in love with the characters and story. I love Jacqueline. I love Lucas. I love this book.
