I am so glad that I decided to read this book! I have been in a little bit of a rut and not really enjoying the last few books I decided to pick up and read and so I decided to read a book by an author that I usually enjoy. Spider was just so good! I loved Spider and Rose. Spider is the ultimate bad-boy rock star and Rose is a girl from the wrong side of town. Their love story was just so sweet and even if it was a little heart breaking at times. The last few chapters were so good when you got to read about all the things that Spider did for Rose that she didn't know about. Spider is definitely book boyfriend material! I would give this book 4 stars.
Favorite Excerpt:
My eyes go to the rose tattoo I saw last night, on the top of the hand with LOST on the knuckles. “Is that about me?”
He looks down at it. “Yeah. I get one”—he takes a deep breath—“every year we’re apart.”
I don’t believe him. My face feels hot.
He exhales. “The first year, I got a rose on my back. The hand was next.” He pushes up the sleeve on his navy sweater and shows me the inside of his arm, where my name is written in tiny script along his bicep. “I got this on year three.”
I take deep breaths, processing his words. He stands there, fidgeting. “And this year? What did you get?”
“Nothing. I’m waiting…”
“For what?” I say, my voice shaky, and I want to yank it back. I don’t want him to see how his words are affecting me, how his vulnerability is tugging at me.
He bites his lip and looks at me long and hard. “For you. This is the year I get you back.”
