Review

I just happened upon this book on Netgalley and decided to give it a go.  I liked the cover and the synopsis sounded like a book that I would enjoy.  I am really glad that I gave this author a chance.  I really liked this first book in a series based in South Carolina.

I do like books based in SC because it is my home state and I thought that Kate did a beautiful job of portraying a gorgeous state that is dear to my heart.  I also really enjoyed the premise of this story.  Annie has been sheltered her entire life by her brothers and father but now that she is away at school she wants to do it up.  So her and her crazy and sweet college roomie make a list of all the things she would like to do now that she is free.

“Kind of like a bucket list for your teen years.”

While Annie is trying to complete her “list” she runs into all kinds of trouble.  The kind of trouble that happens when your a teenager out on your own for the first time.  The kind of trouble that is THE LOVE TRIANGLE kind.  I do adore me a love triangle because I love angst and this book had plenty of it.  It is also why I love these college romances.  Because let’s face it, we make the poorest decisions of our life at this age, but we have a hell of a time doing it.  😉  Annie sure does.  I knew right away who Annie needed to pick but of course she, Ryan and Chris all make their share of bad choices that lead to more bad choices and even  worse consequences.

“If I could have one wish, I’d wish for you.”

If you are a fan of NA books then this is definitely something I would recommend.  I really enjoyed it and I am really excited about the future books in this series.  I loved the side characters just as much as the main ones and I think these books are just going to get better and better.  Cannot wait!
