Synopsis: I was his weakness. He was my strength. Until I destroyed him.
I was infatuated with Shane Wilder since the first time I saw him surfing. But we couldn’t be together. Not yet, anyway. I was too young and screwed up. He was too focused on chasing his dream.
So we became friends. We met on the rooftop for late-night confessions under the stars. Cruised along the Pacific Coast Highway with the wind in our hair and the sun on our faces.
I took photos of all the beautiful and ugly and interesting things, while he traveled the world in search of the perfect waves.
I told him I would wait for him.
I never meant to lie.
I never meant to ruin his life.
I. Destroyed. Him.
As his star faded, mine burned bright. But as everyone knows, all that glitters is not gold.
Now I’m back after seven long years, hoping for a chance to right my wrongs and fix what I’ve broken. This time I can only hope that loving Shane Wilder will be enough to save him.
I've read a few of this author's other books and I really enjoyed them, so I was looking forward to reading more from her! I then saw sign-ups for this book and it sounded interesting, so I decided to review it! I'm really happy that I decided to review this book because I really enjoyed it! The plot was actually different to what I was expecting, but I enjoyed the direction it went in and I felt like the author did an amazing job with it! The plot developed at the perfect pace and it kept me hooked and wanting to read on and find out what was going to happen next! There was a lot in it and I loved every second of reading it! There was also plenty of romance in the plot, which allowed for a few seriously hot scenes between the two main characters! The characters were also amazing and made this book even better! Remy was the main female character, and in this book my heart went out to her because of her home life! She had to grow up fast and so did her brother! Remy tried her best at the beginning of this book to provide for herself! Remy's life then changed, but it changed in a good way and she had lots of money and a career that allowed her to travel the world! Remy's attitude didn't change though, which I loved! Remy also refused to let Shane go and she fought for him! Shane was the main male character and love interest of Remy! I loved Shane a lot in this book! He also had the world at his feet and he had worked hard to get to where he was! This made me have a lot of respect for him! He was also a good guy and didn't act like he was better than anyone! Shane's life then changed and this made my heart go out to him! Shane came a long way in this book though and he grew a lot as a person and working out what he wanted to do with his life! I loved that this book was written from both Remy and Shane's point of views! I wasn't sure if it was going to be because the synopsis gives the impression that the book may be written from only the female character's point of view! I'm really happy that this book was written from both characters point of views because it helped me connect and understand them more! It allowed for more things to happen in the plot as well, which helped as Remy and Shane were dealing with their own problems and didn't spend every second of the plot together! I can also completely understand why this book is a standalone! I mean, for Remy and Shane at least as the ending was left at the perfect place for them! I do see potential for secondary characters from this book to have a book, but I don't think that the author is going to give them a book! I would love it if she did though because their story was only sort of started in this book! I also can't wait to see what this author is going to release next! I'm loving her books so far and only have one more to read! The cover for this book is also seriously hot! I loved it as soon as I saw it and it would definitely attract me to the book if I didn't already know the author's name! The cover model is seriously hot too! Big thank you to Emery and Enticing Journey Book Promotions for having me on the Blog Tour!
