I hear you!! I loved the first half and then not so much the 2nd half!!


Prim You should probably continue reading the book. Lol.

Vee Gretzinger Uhhhh! I was right she gets preggers. An chase dies! What?!!!! That's terrible I dont even know if I can finish the book now. That. That was just so sad. Should I keep going?


Prim I also hate that part, Vee. Srsly. Lol. It was also a shock for me. But yes, you should keep going. LOL. Chase really shouldn't have died and its kinda disturbing... for me.

Vee Gretzinger Yes! That's exactly what I'm thinking. Like I was heart broken, why would she do that? He died thinking Harper was mad at her :'( I will try to keep reading it, but it makes my stomach hurt to think about chase dead.


Prim You will surely remember Chase until the end of it. Like.. forever.

Yea I was heartbroken as well!! I couldn't finish it,I just got the spoilers from others and I didn't like what I heard!! But u should make up your feelings for yourself!! I wonder how you feel about it!?

Vee Gretzinger ok, so i stopped reading the book after chase died. i was a wreck, and it made me sick, idk why, it just did. i hated how he died, i thought that was really stupid. ok, so after that i just skimmed the book up until the end. it was terrible. i think its stupid how she got preg again... like really? she just had a baby a year ago. and i hated how she was always so mean to jason/carter.i didn't like how the dad shut her out. idk that book was effed up. however, i did sort of like how brandon got together with her. i didn't like how fast they rushed into everything. and once they were married they had sex like 4 times in a row, every thursday- sex addicts much? i don't mind those scenes, but they get old after the 2nd round. not the book for me. thats all i have to say about that.


Stacey This book effed me up really..smdh. And then there is going to be Chase's POV??? For what? We already know his fate...

I am interested to know who is planning on reading that and why?

Vee Gretzinger its stupid! like um.... what?? way to forget about chase like he didn't even exist. oh and harper said that the baby didn't resemble any of chase. it only looked like her. execpt the baby's eyes were kind of blue

Yeah , to me it's all kind of rude , how can they say that ? Chase plays quite a big part of the story , I know Brandon is all kind of good but chase got my heart strings tug too !

(random question, but i really like mine!)

April Chase leaving still has me up in arms. But I totally get why it had to happen. Life goes on in real life and I was grateful the same was in the book--it isn't a fairy-tale, as hard as it was to read. I cried the ugly, disgusting, snot infested cry when he dies. I hated it. I was angry at Harper but I wasn't at the same time--I was confused. (She should have pressed charges to the idiot for drugging him, though.) I am still not over Chase. I miss Chase.

exactly why can't they both co exist i will still read a paper back but it's more convenient when I'm out or i hear about a new book i can quickly look it up on my kindle instead of having to wait and drive somewhere to look at or buy the book!!:)

i definitely think Harper should have pressed charges on the stupid broad and not quickly jumped to conclusions, even after he explained he didn't do anything and he doesn't remember she should give him the benefit of the doubt, yea he had a reputation but HAD being the operative word she got with him knowing his past and accepting it and was supposed to give him a chance. she obviously never truly trusted him and for that shouldn't have been with him just because of the baby. she was obviously never over Brandon! and the first chance to she got to run she did without a thought.


April Amen!!!

i agree with you on that one! i love renting books at the library... because they are free! sometimes it's nice to actually see how far you are in a book too...rather than just knowing your percentage.

ohhhh thats a good idea! i never thought about her being able to press charges on that skank who drugged chase! the ending was a bit too "and then they had a baby and lived happily ever after,, the end."...but whateves

message 30: by Lindsey (new)

Lindsey Benning How did Chase die?? I haven't got that far yet but want to be prepared!!

If you really want to know....

(view spoiler)


message 32: by Lindsey (new)

Lindsey Benning Oh no!! I am still in the beginning but I had a feeling that I needed to check spoilers and I found this thread. I'm trying to make myself favor Brandon to spare the pain, but its tough! Thanks for letting me know how it happened!!


Sleepy No problem, i was so heartbroken when i read it, i have yet to finish the whole book and probably never will.
