This was my first book from Penelope, and now I'm invested in this series! I'll be totally honest, this book started a little slow for me and took a few chapters before it hooked me, but when it did, I couldn't put it down!

Jasper and Coraline's relationship was like a rollercoaster that I couldn't get off. From Coraline's perspective, it was a love-hate relationship. You know the kind I'm talking about.... the one where she loves to hate Jasper but really is annoyed that she actually hates that she loves him.... we've all been there! As for Jasper, he wants Coraline like his next breath and will do anything to have her but won't admit he loves her.... at least not out loud, yet.... men, ughhh! I did enjoy watching their relationship grow and develop into so much more, these two were sexy and spicy rolled into one.

Those last few chapters where the twists, and turns were dropping like bombs. definitely left me jaw-dropped and excited for more trips to Avalon Falls! So if you love fake relationships, forced proximity, touch her and die, small town romance with some suspense thrown in.... this book is for you!
