Toni Aleo (all hail the amazing hockey queen) hit one out of the park with this book. I laughed, cried, and screamed YUPPP with Tate and Audrey. This book starts with Fallon's sister Audrey. Audrey hates her job, accepts any love she can find, and rejects the idea that she is a whole woman due to issues involving her inability to get pregnant. Introduce Tate, the next door neighbor she keeps not meeting and Lucas's best friend.... and did I mention Audrey's one night stand? Tate is complex and scarred but still amazing, confident, and sweet. Tate knows what he wants..and it is most definitley Audrey! There is one scene in here that had me BEGGING to be Audrey for a couple of moments (and that's saying something since I am hopelessly devoted to my awesome husband) but seriously....Tate STANDS UP WITH AUDREY...well you'll just have to read to see what I'm talking about.
This book also deals with minor and major physical abuse (not by Tate obviously) and Mrs. Aleo does a wonderful job of depicting the lies women believe for the love of the wrong man.
Also -- let me just say that until this book I was always against girls who dated younger guys..it just freaked me out for some reason...but Audrey and Tate converted me! AND Tate made me rethink my stance on men with gaps! (again read the book, you'll completely understand!)
This is a definite TO READ!
