"I'm not going to lie. After the ending of the first book, I wanted to slap Caleb upside the head. I understand he has some things he needs to work out and I'm glad that he gets stuck doing the same summer trip as Maggie. And I also want to through out there that I loved Damon. He was just awesome. Caleb was just lucky to have him in his corner.<br/><br/>At first, I wasn't sure about this book. Then I realized that it would be silly to think that all of their problems would be solved in such a short time span of the first book. Watching as they both worked out their issues was great because you could see the healing slowly working through them.<br/><br/>And on a side note, I couldn't believe what Maggie's mom almost did to destroy her own happiness! I was really glad when things didn't turn the way I thought they would. I'm glad I picked up the first book and the second. These books were well worth the read."
