But despite that she is an open and loving person that cares deeply for the people in her life. So it’s not surprising that she falls for the groveling best friend of her older brother. Alex himself has also experienced tragedy at a young age but contrary to Ava he remembers every little detail about that night. He is driven by the need for revenge and hasn’t felt anything different for a while. So it comes as a surprise when Ava is the one who makes him feel something for the first time.
I love a good brother’s best friend love story, so I was looking forward to see how this one goes. I’ve already read quite a few books by the author and I really enjoy her style of writing. Ava is a character that probably a lot of us can relate to. I think it’s great how much she changes from the naive little sister to a strong and powerful woman throughout the book. What I love most is that she faces her trauma alone and does not need the male character to get through it. But to be honest I wasn’t a big fan of their love story. It just all happened so fast and they went from not liking each other to deeply in love within moments. I wished there would have been more of a built up. Then the rest of the story wasn’t a love story at all anymore but rather a big murder mystery to figure out what happened to Alex parents. That’s not what I expected when reading the summary although I didn’t mit it too much. But why did he need to sing? I am looking forward to the rest of the series though because they do sound really promising to me.
This book was not what I expected and does have some room for improvement. But I did enjoy reading it so I will give the rest of the series a chance.
