Wait for You (Wait for You, #1)

by J. Lynn and Jennifer L. Armentrout

The New York Times number 1 New Adult bestseller

Some things are worth waiting for...

Travelling thousands of miles from home to enter college is the only way nineteen-year-old Avery Morgansten can escape an event that changed her life forever. All she needs to do is keep her head down - the one thing she didn't plan on was capturing the attention of the only guy who could shatter her defences.

Cameron Hamilton is six feet and three inches of swoon-worthy hotness. She knows she needs to stay away from him, but Cam is everywhere, with his charm, his banter, and that dimple that's just so... so lickable. Getting involved with him is dangerous, but ignoring their simmering tension is impossible...

When Avery starts receiving threatening emails and phone calls, she realises that someone from her past is refusing to let her go. When the devastating truth comes out, will Cam be there to help her or will he be dragged down with her?

A reserved woman meets the man of her dreams in this sweet New Adult romance.

After reading the unhealthy Ugly Love this year, I decided to re-read a New Adult romance I actually enjoyed. Cameron and Avery's courtship is utterly adorable. Both characters are struggling to let go of their pasts in order to embrace their futures. Avery by far has more emotional baggage than Cameron, but he's got his own issues. As the novel progresses, they grow as individuals and as a couple. Their growth is not always easy, but it's always with a purpose.

The friendships in this novel also have a place in my heart. I think it's so important for people to have relationships outside of their romantic partners. Avery and Cameron both have a core group of friends that support them and their needs. If anything, I wish we had gotten more friendship moments than romantic moments.

tl;dr A sweet romance focused on character growth and friendships.
