My Review:

Loved this book! It had such a great ending <3 The story was original and intriguing. It was nice to read a story that was a new twist on the normal romance book. A Must read. Leo and Evie <3 They are definitely on my top list for best couples. I Love when a book flashes back to the past to give you small glimpses of what is happening in the present. This book does that a lot and it was great. You are left with so many ideas about the book with each coming chapter. So the beginning of the book had me leary. Someone is following you and you think its funny? and even look forward to the guy? But once I read further I was hooked. I loved not only Jake, but Evie just as much. Its not most books that I like both characters. Usually one annoys me. But this book, nada. It was great. Well written and such an epic story. Evie and Leo make a promise that when she is 18 Leo will come back from her. Foster care has been a rough life for them, but he is getting out and he will be back for her. On her 18th Birthday a part of Evie breaks. With No word from Leo over the years she looses her last bit of hope on that day when he doesn't show. This Story is H-O-T hot. Jake and Evie add a whole new meaning to the word. They are magnetic as a couple and I just can't get enough of them. He may have started out with doubts in my mind, but those evaporate with how much he cares for Evie. And Boy does he CARE for her <3 This book is full of emotion stories and parts that hurt your heart, but its a great story. I urge you to run out and read it now. Even if you find it a bit predictable, you cannot deny how great of a book this is <3

Synopsis:

Evie and Leo met in foster care as children and formed a bond of friendship. As they grew, their bond turned to love and they vowed to make a life together when they turned 18 and were no longer a part of the system. When Leo unexpectedly gets adopted as a teen and he moves to another city, he promises Evie that he will contact her as soon as he gets there and come back for her in a few short years. She never hears from him again. Now eight years later, in spite of the odds, Evie has made a life for herself. She has a job, she has friends, she's content. Then a man shows up out of the blue, claiming that her long lost love, Leo, sent him to check up on her. The attraction between them is undeniable. But, should she trust this sexy stranger? Or is he keeping a secret about what his connection to Leo is really all about and why Leo disappeared all those years ago?
