This book is a standalone in Addison Moore’s Lake Loveless Series, I haven’t read the first three, but luckily I didn’t need to in order to understand this book. However, whilst I found this to be completely different to anything else I’ve read by her, I did find myself intrigued as to what would happen and how this book would play out. I found that it took me a while to get into the story, there just wasn’t something gripping me right away, but as I got further into the book I did find it to be pretty interesting. The one thing I will say that got to me a lot is that I found Abel’s friends to be really condescending, for example I don’t mind friends and family giving me a little warning about something if they are truly concerned about me, however when it happens all the time and every time I see them and it’s always the same thing it can really get to me. I felt really bad for Abel in this book because even though at first there was nothing going on and he was just spending time with Zoey because he was enjoying her company I just couldn’t stand reading about the fact that his family and friends kept warning him off Zoey. If that would have been me, I would have told them that whilst I appreciate it, I didn’t need them to keep interfering, yet it seemed like Abel didn’t have a very good backbone. Other than that I did think it was a good book, and if you haven’t read Addison’s work then you should go and change that. 

Zoey has been through so much in her life and she honestly doesn’t think that she deserves happiness. She is a bright girl who has a few issues, but then again doesn’t everyone, we wouldn’t be human if we didn’t. You can’t help but feel for her as she really does deserve to be happy, however are things set to change after she takes a peak at her neighbour…. ​
