This wasn't at all like I was expecting. The first book in the series, Stroked, was light hearted and fun. We learned a little bit about Bodi in Stroked and what I saw, I liked. He was quiet and broody. I love quiet and broody. What I wasn't expecting was him to be so broken. The beginning of this story was rough for me. Ruby had some very cringe worthy moments. Bodi had some serious trauma in his past that practically debilitated him socially, but the more I read, the more I fell for these two. This is one of those stories that will pull every emotion to the surface. I was embarrassed for Ruby a lot in the beginning, but then thankfully she mellowed out with her growing relationship with Bodi. Bodi just broke my heart. I wanted to hug the poor guy. His issues were a serious subject to takle. Then there were the laugh out loud moments that Meghan Quinn is known for. This story started out rough but ended up making me an emotional, happy mess. We, also got to see a bit more of Hollis and Melony and I can't wait for their story.
