♪♫My Pick For Book Theme Song♫♪
♫All In by Lifehouse --These lyrics describe Oliver and how he feels after he screws things up in New York.
♫All night staring at the ceiling
counting for minutes I've been feeling this way
So far away and so alone
But you know it's alright
I came to my senses
Letting go of my defenses
There's no way I'm giving up this time
Yeah, you know I'm right here
I'm not losing you this time♫

⇝My Thoughts⇜
Overall, a stimulating story, that just suffered from one substantial issue; and one tiny issue. My bigger issue was TOO MANY SEX SCENES…this is a pet peeve of mine, lately, with the New Adult Genre. This story had so much going for it, an interesting premise with her being a writer and Ollie as the new cover model of her series. I loved that…and the sub-plots are also very intriguing too. I just don't get why she felt the need to add so many full on descriptive sex scenes, sometimes it's ok to leave some of the scenes details to our imaginations. I'm not sure if I'll keep reading this series…I might…I'll just have to do a lot of skimming through the sexy stuff if need be. My other issue is the excessive amounts of sappiness, especially from Oliver...actually, entirely from Oliver.
