But she never expected their surprise encounter would lead to two years of exchanging letters-or that she’d fall for the boy she’s only seen once. Their relationship is a secret, but Lila feels closer to Lincoln than anyone else. Until she finds out that he lied to her about the one thing she depended on him for the most.Hurting Lila is the last thing Lincoln wanted. For two years, her letters have been the only thing getting him through the day. Admitting his feelings would cross a line he’s never dared breach before.

"This book was moderately enjoyable for me. Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy it as much as Tessa Bailey or Emily Henry's books. With that being said, it was still "cute" and enjoyable! I will have to give this one a second chance in the future for sure!<br/><br/>Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for sharing this book in exchange for my honest review<br/>My blog is https://bookreviewsbyjules.blogspot.com/<br/><br/>Goodreads https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/44083250-julia<br/><br/>Instagram/bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/bookreviewsbyjules/"
"También en: <a href="http://el-extrano-gato-del-cuento.blogspot.com/2015/01/book-review-crossing-line-mcgarry.html">El Extraño Gato del Cuento</a><br/><br/>Historia corta entre ROMPIENDO LAS NORMAS y DARE TO YOU, lleva publicado ya unos cuantos años pero no lo había leído por pura pereza y falta de interés. Sólo que al finalizar el año tuve una completa necesidad de leer todo lo que KATIE MCGARRY tuviera publicado (la publicación de BREAKING THE RULES propicio esto).<br/><br/>Lo primero que noté, luego de pasarme todo el año pasado variando en mis lecturas, tanto en escenarios como en etnias, es ¡qué pálidos son los personajes de McGarry! Luego de leer todo la serie PUSHING THE LIMITS más su historia corta RED AT NIGHT, es casi imposible no notarlo. ¿Es algo malo o bueno? ¿Tanto leer con diferentes personajes ha cambiado mi cerebro?<br/><br/><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/b22a1e5b612344ab35c40fe865dac1f7/tumblr_inline_n04sfkB2NP1qbygev.gif" height="200" /><br/><br/>La historia en sí es bonita, no va a cambiar tu mundo pero es una historia para cuando quieras pasar de algo muy intenso a cualquier otra lectura. Como un aperitivo que abre el apetito (¿se nota que me gusta la comida? xD)<br/><br/>No tengo mucho que decir porque no rockeó mi mundo."
"Crossing The Line is a forbidden love story between two rival families. Forbidden Romance is one of my favorite tropes. So needless to say, I was like, sign me up. <br/><br/> Paisley Grove and Hercules Lord have a long history together since high school and are family Rivalry. Eight years later, after spending one night together, they see each other for the first time at their friends' engagement party. Feelings came back in full force for both of them. <br/><br/>Life is complicated and complex for these two. It’s not all black and white and has a ton of gray areas. A few times I wanted to tell them to wake up. Our man Hercules shines through on several occasions. There is one major twist I can't predict. <br/><br/> This is the first book from both authors and is here to say I am thrilled about how much I enjoyed this book as look forward to future books."
