After a terrible car accident destroys her life as she knew it, twenty-year-old Kacey escapes to Florida, where she encounters an irresistible man determined to capture her wounded heart.Just breathe, Kacey. Ten tiny breaths. Seize them. Feel them. Love them. Four years ago, Kacey Cleary’s life imploded when her car was hit by a drunk driver, killing her parents, boyfriend, and best friend. Still haunted by memories of being trapped inside, listening to her mother take her last breath, Kacey wants to leave her past behind. Armed with two bus tickets, Kacey and her fifteen-year-old sister, Livie, escape Grand Rapids, Michigan, to start over in Miami. They’re struggling to make ends meet at first, but Kacey’s not worried. She can handle anything—anything but her mysterious neighbor in apartment 1D. Trent Emerson has smoldering blue eyes and deep dimples, and perfectly skates that irresistible line between nice guy and bad boy. Hardened by her tragic past, Kacey is determined to keep everyone at a distance, but their mutual attraction is undeniable, and Trent is desperate to find a way into Kacey’s guarded heart—even if it means revealing an explosive secret that could shatter both their worlds.

"Good but not great. A little anticlimactic. "

"The story itself was very intense, and definitely kept my interest throughout. One issue I had with this book was when Kacey was narrating her thoughts, or explaining things, she seemed to go off into too much unnecessary detail. Sometimes I found myself drifting off during her rants about how screwed up she is, not wanting to let people in, etc. It also amazes me that throughout the whole book, she realizes she's so messed up, and doesn't ever try to go get help for her rage issues. (At least, not on her own). I am interested to read Livvie's story, but I'm afraid it will be the like (excessive ranting, complaining, self-pity). Although Kacey and Livvie's personalities are very different, the writing technique is my concern."
