And the few glasses of wine I had might have had something to do with it? Despite that, the writing was pretty darn good considering some of the high rated crap I've come across lately. Yes, there are a few cliche's in here but the story and characters kept me from putting the book down. But when they finally step into the light, will the secret Kiernan’s been trying to keep buried destroy Jade, once and for all?įor some people, happy endings are a fairytale.Īnother surprisingly good YA book that tackles some worn-thin issues but in a slightly different and interesting way. Together, they fight back the darkness she’s living in. On drawing her out of her shell, and showing her that she is someone worthy of love. Hiding is a way of life for Jade, but Kiernan insists on uncovering the real girl he sees trapped inside her. But now he’s back, and looking better than ever. Jade’s been crushing on him ever since kindergarten, when his family moved away. Until Kiernan Parks moves back into town.

She wants nothing more than to disappear, and everyone seems happy to let her.

She hates her life, her insecurities, her ineptitudes, but most of all. Suffering the bitter tongues of her alcoholic mother and cruel boyfriend, Jade struggles just to look at herself in the mirror.

Just because they aren't visible, doesn't mean the right person can't see them. Just because some wounds aren't physical, doesn't mean they aren't there.
