Tisha G. said Loved this sequel!. Oh my goodness!! If you are like me and read Everything We Keep.you MUST read this!! Writing style is wonderful and you will turn the pages until the very end!! This is not a book to read on it's own, though. I strongly recommend you read the first book (Everything We Keep) before you read this one. It's a great journey, you will not be disappointed.. christine ortega said I want more. So I likely have this book an extra star because of my attachment tot he characters but I wanted more!! I wanted more Amy even though I understand we needed the other side of the story. I wanted more Natalya because her view was never told. I want to know if because Amy and Hanes stared as friends if they can ever be a part of each other's life. I thought the explicit sexy scenes were unnecessary over all.It could be briefer and it would be fine. I wanted more content in the characters and less rehashing of things.. D. Phillips said Very good!. I have enjoyed this series. I like the author's writing style. Great characters. I would recommend this book & look forward to her next!
