This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews Thank you to Jena for letting me take part in this tour. I LOVED the first book in this series, Flawed Perfection (currently free)  and I have been desperately waiting 2 years for the sequel, which did not disappoint. If you have NOT read the first book please do not read on as it WILL contain spoilers for book one.

After her best friend Bobby Beckerson dies in a car accident River doesn't only lose a best friend but a part of herself. Struggling with her own grief she doesn't know how to help her boyfriend, Adam, Bobby's brother. Adam turns to drink to numb the pain while River turns to work.

Unable to help each other the pair start to question if they should really be together. I'm going to leave the story there because I don't want to ruin anything.

I spent the first 50% of this book blubbing. I felt all of River's emotions as she tried to deal with her grief of losing Bobby and I had to let the tears our.

I spent the rest of the book egging River on. Wanting her to take control of her life. To break through the storm and come out better and stronger than before.

This book is beautifully written. It flows from paragraph to paragraph, chapter to chapter with like a river to the sea the pace is perfect.

I can't wait to see what happens next and I really hope I don't have to wait too long for it.
