4.5 Stars
This is the first book in a new series and it started off with a bang. I couldn't put this one down. It has all the small town drama that gets me hooked in a book. I loved Jett and Adelaide. Jett from the wrong side of the tracks and not in the elite click. Adelaide with every advantage in life with the picture perfect life. Both their worlds collide when everything is not as picture perfect as it seems. I loved watching Adelaide spread her wings and start going after her dreams. That was one of my favorite parts of the book. Jett has many swoon worthy moments. His number one thing that won me over is him befriending a classmate in his calculous class. Jett has a heart of gold, but Adelaide gives him a run for his money. She's is the one you want in your corner because she's loyal, but she has the heart to back it up. I loved her and her group of friends the Magic Willows. You can tell they are going to be life long friends. I'm already hooked on this series and can't wait for the next book in the series.
Excerpt
She leaned forward and kissed me. Her lips meeting mine, and I swore to fucking Christ this girl owned me in every way. Her fingers tangled in my hair, and I shifted her on my lap, so she was straddling me. Grinding up against me. I nearly came undone right there on the seat of my bike. I wanted to carry her over to the hammock, drop her down, and strip her bare. Show her how good I could make her feel. But I knew she’d been through a lot tonight, and it wasn’t the right time. My hands slipped beneath her sweater and I fucking loved the feel of her soft skin against my fingers. I teased her hard peaks through the lace of her bra with my thumbs and she gasped. Her head fell back as little pants escaped.
“Jett, I want you.”
My lips moved to her neck, kissing my way back up to her face. I kissed her cheeks, her nose, her eyelids, and stopped at her sweet mouth.
“You already have me.”
“You know what I mean,” she said, her voice raspy and full of need.
“Not tonight. Not after what you’ve been through. When I have you, it won’t be after pulling you into the middle of a shitshow, or after you went at it with your mom. But I will have you, Adelaide Edington. And I promise to rock your fucking world.”
She laughed and ran her fingers through my hair. “Oh, I have no doubt.”
“There’s no rush.”
She nodded. “Okay. I’m going to hold you to it.”
“I’m a man of my word.” I placed a chaste kiss on her lips before lifting her up and dropping her back down on the seat. I grabbed her helmet and placed it on her head, buckling it beneath her chin. Her dark eyes never left mine.
“I know you are.”
I climbed on in front of her, and my dick raged against my zipper just like it always did. I laughed. Chivalry had never been something I’d thought about. But when it came to this girl—I wanted to do everything right.
