3 posts | 25 read | 6 to read
Nothing has been the same since Caleb Becker left a party drunk, got behind the wheel, and hit Maggie Armstrong. Even after months of painful physical therapy, Maggie walks with a limp. Her social life is nil and a scholarship to study abroadher chance to escape everyone and their pitying stareshas been canceled. After a year in juvenile jail, Calebs free . . . if freedom means endless nagging from a transition coach and the prying eyes of the entire town. Coming home should feel good, but his family and ex-girlfriend seem like strangers. Caleb and Maggie are outsiders, pigeon-holed as "criminal" and "freak." Then the truth emerges about what really happened the night of the accident and, once again, everything changes. Its a bleak and tortuous journey for Caleb and Maggie, yet they end up finding comfort and strength from a surprising source: each other.

I liked the premise but it didn't hit the mark for me. It was too melodramatic for my taste and there was something essential missing from the characters I just couldn't put my finger on. They didn't feel fully fleshed out. So I'm leaving paradise and I won't be back.

So I've read one other book by this author called perfect chemistry. It was a good book... Excited to start this one. :)
