We don&#8217;t talk about her. Toby? <em>sigh<\/em><br> So many things could be said about this book. The characters. The rawness. The love. The pain. The heartache. The misery. But while this happened, they grew. Together and a part. <br> This book will forever hold a special spot in my heart. It wasn&#8217;t an easy read and while I didn&#8217;t enjoy every moment of it (which I&#8217;m sure is what the author wanted and was rooting for), it was wonderful. I love the stories that hurt. Life isn&#8217;t all roses and puppies and kittens. Life is hard. It&#8217;s brutal and unfair. Life sucks sometimes. And we are human and make mistakes. I think through Jase and Lo&#8217;s mistakes, it was the only way they could find their way back to each other. Bravo, Cassie. Bravo.
