Publisher's summary

Tessa O'Connell is a girl as in love as possible. For a moment she had it all: friends, family, and the promise of a forever love. But could she end up losing it all? The crippling pain of heartbreak is fresh, and as Tessa struggles to move on in the wake of tragedy, her goal becomes to protect her heart at all costs. But it's a task not made easy by the devastatingly gorgeous Cole Stone, who seems to have shattered her beyond repair.

As Cole and Tessa manage to find their way back to one another, they embark on yet another new chapter in their lives. While attempting to navigate her first year of college, it becomes apparent to Tessa that everyone has their eyes set on Cole Stone. When status quo, clingy college girls, old insecurities, and her slightly neurotic tendencies cause her to question whether she can actually make the relationship work, it's up to Cole to show her that he's never letting go, not again. But even for Cole Grayson Stone it's not easy to convince his Shortcake of his never ending devotion as time apart, communication problems, and a quirky new group of friends start to unravel the delicate thread that binds the two together. Can the boy who once protected her from the world protect Tessa from herself?

Warning: The book comes with a bad boy desperate to win back the love of his life. He's going to fight dirty and he's willing to go down on his knees and beg. If you thought Cole Stone was swoon-worthy before, wait till you see him get the girl.

too easily

I loved the book I just hate how Tessa always gives in so easily too Cole. I wanted to give it four stars but the ending just botheref me so much. He hurt her and she just gave in. He needs consequences for his actions. After he hurt her the first time I'd thought she learned but she hasn't.

Another great installment

We leave the last book with Tessa heartbroken. We pickup to see this the next turn of the screw. This book offers twists and turns that I had to say that I didn't see coming. Ultimately, the problem between the two is greater than what the small problems between them, it is the rest of the world and what those outside of their relationship. Is what they decide a bad idea? You'll have to decide. The narration is great. I'm looking forward to the next installment.

A little annoying and tell repetitive

While this is still a sweet love story, I found myself just wishing they could live happily ever after so the reader could move on. However, I adore Tessa and Cole and can't wait for book 3!!

Just Fine

I listened to this one out of a feeling of obligation. The first book wasnt a favorite but I wanted to know what happened. I'm still just as disturbed at the end about how the author is portraying such a negative, unhealthy relationship and the characters aren't having any growth at all.

Super unhealthy relationship on display

The performance was great, even the writing was good but the characters mindset and relationships were damaged and unhealthy to say the least. This is a cautionary tale, not a love story. Story was not worth the credit and I won't be purchasing the next installment.
