I think this is one of Sarah Morgan's best books to date, I was absolutely hooked from the first page and couldn't put it down. Sarah is an expert at writing believable relationships whether they are friendships, families or romantic relationships. This is definitely a story I will enjoy reading many times and can see me enjoying it just as much as the first time I discovered it.
