1. Two words: Romance Novel. This wasn’t your typical romance. Bailey and Clay met when he put her in jail 11 years before. They are at odds because of their different views on kids in gangs. Bailey wants to try to rehabilitate them and Clay is the opposite. And of course, sparks fly.
2. Speaking about sparks, once Bailey and Clay got into bed, it got hot and steamy.
3. The brothers (for the most part). Having 5 brother’s myself, I sympathized with Bailey.
4.The backstory about why Bailey started her organization. Not giving anything away but it was heartbreaking.
What I didn’t like about Someone to Believe In:
1. The sub-story with Taz. Not that it wasn’t good, it pulled at my heartstrings. Taz’s home life was awful and her gang life was worse. The twist in this story actually made me cry for her.
2. The ending seemed a little rushed to me. I wish the author had carried over Bailey and Clay’s relationship to another book. Because the relationship itself wasn’t typical.
**I voluntarily reviewed this book**
