Tina crushed on David in high school and he had to move away, after he said he returned her feelings. Tina goes off to college and gets together with Toby/Tony, not sure of name since both were used. They both become lawyers, but then, he betrays her. Can Tina ever catch a break or is she destined to be alone. I rounded this book up to four stars, since I can’t put three and a half.
I received an advance copy of this book and this is my voluntary review. Hopefully, the errors will be corrected before book is published.
A compelling story that makes one realize that no matter what ethnicity the person is, there can always be a common bond – LOVE – as shown in the relations between Charlie and Ronda and eventually David and Lisa. It also shows that every relationship doesn’t always go the way one wants them to.
I enjoyed reading this story very much. I expected different way of presenting the story line and it was unexpected how author has presented the relationship of the main characters. There are some twists in the story that make it even better. Characters are well developed. Ending was a little bit rushed but still it is very well written book.
Tina met David one day when he stood up to a bully for her and her best friend Charlie. Shortly after that the three of them were practically inseparable. Tina started to feel like a fifth wheel once both David and Charlie had girlfriends. Even though she hid her feelings for David they all remained close until David told her his family was moving.
Years later Tina moves back home to the house she grew up in after a bad breakup. She maybe a successful attorney but she feels that something is missing in her life. One day while home renovating her home the phone rings and the voice on the other end is one she never expected to hear again.
Now that David is back in California he wants to see Tina again. Once they see each other the feelings they had as teenagers ignites again and Tina finally realizes what has been missing in her life. 🖤🖤
