I was almost in tears with how much I suffered reading it. The characters broke me to smithereens and I was just on the verge of breaking down because I couldn't choose. Both Gar and Beck were such amazing men and to have to have your heart break because you could only chose one was devastating enough.
What this poor girl went through is just too much. I wouldn't wish it upon anyone. Stevie went through so much in this story. I get that at the beginning she didn't want any commitments, she made Garrick work for it and Garrick fell for her the instant he saw her and he felt it in his heart that she was it for him. He finally worked his charms on her and woo'ed her every which way he could and he was able to win her heart. But fate had other plans and during this time she meets Beck who becomes her best friend and is there helping her, picking up her broken pieces and helping her heal. And in doing so, they both realize that they are starting to feel more for each other but neither one wants to cross that barrier, too scared of what would happen if they do. But something's got to give. Stevie has to make a decision in whether or not letting go of Garrick and moving on with Beck is the right choice or if staying with Garrick and letting go of Beck is the right decision. Man this book was so emotional that I didn't know how much more heartbreak I could take. Siobhan Davis is the queen of angst and I will never tire of saying that and I will never get tired of reading her fabulous stories!
