This is all about Janice, this girl\u2026..smh. In the first two books we get glimpses of our girl but she has had a sordid past and some other issues to go right along with it. She is the girl we all love to hate\u2026.but dayum, I feel so bad for her. So, we all know she is hung up on Talan and currently hates Maya because she stole Talan from her. But the leaps and bounds she goes through to tear these two apart is incredible. And she has a support system that wants to help her be better. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I dressed like a whore.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Acted like a b*tch.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Innocent could never be used to describe me. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We get to dive into Janice\u2019s world and how she rationalizes what she does and did! She has scars but does an incredible job at hiding them\u2026.until\u2026..Maya. It\u2019s definitely an interesting glimpse into her life and give us so much more to go on than just the crazy girl who thinks she loves Talan. There is SOOOOOOO MUCH MORE! I feel more complete with the series at this point knowing just where Janice is coming from and how she justifies her behavior. It\u2019s INTENSE!!!!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Losing him to her wouldn\u2019t be the end of my world, just the intermission into my next chapter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I can\u2019t wait to get started with Marked to get my fix!

Reyes was born and raised in Miami Florida. She is the epitome of a Floridian and if she could live in her beloved flip-flops, she would.<br \/>\nAs a small child, she was always intrigued by all forms of art&#8211;whether it was dancing to island rhythms, or painting with any medium she could get her hands on. Her first taste of writing came to her during her fifth-grade year when her class was prompted to participate in the D. A. R. E. Program and write an essay on what they&#8217;d learned.<br \/>\nHer passion for reading over the years has amassed her with hours of pleasure. It wasn&#8217;t until she stumbled upon fanfiction that her thirst to write overtook her world. She now resides in Central Florida with her husband and son, spending all her down time letting her creativity flow and characters grow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Abandoned.
