Old loves and new chances.
One more year of being invisible.
One more year to win it all.
The countdown begins.
Senior year can’t come or end fast enough for Amelia Campbell. For the shy, nerdy girl-next-door that she is, high school is torture and all she wants is for it to be over. Having her heart broken by a popular, womanizing boy all those years ago doesn’t help the matters. Nor does his best friend who still has a habit of mercilessly teasing her. Now, she only has one year left, one year to be invisible before she can move on with her life.
Derek King doesn’t do drama, but his life is all about drama once Maximillian Sanders steps foot into his town, his school, and into Amelia’s life. Max is always around, and he is making her smile again. But the boy who once broke her heart isn’t ready to let her go. Older and wiser, Derek isn’t about to let someone take away what he wants, and he wants Amelia.
She's set on not believing in him and on not getting her heart broken once again. He is set on showing her wrong.
She says she hates him, but maybe the line between past and present, love and hate is thinner than she ever realized.
Caroline's Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐
This was a great, angsty, enemies-to-lovers YA romance.
"We are crossing every line that was drawn between us, our worlds - a line that's better left uncrossed - but I can't find it in me to care."
Amelia Campbell just needs to get through senior year before she can get the hell out of town. She likes to keep herself invisible, and is only her true self with the one friend she's got in the whole school. However, she's thrown into the limelight when the new guy in town and his sister insist on her company, and dragging to parties that she's avoided all her school life. Unfortunately, the bane of Amelia's life doesn't like the attention she's getting, and starts behaving in a confusing manner towards her.
"The only thing I can concentrate on, the only thing I can see, is her. It's always been her."
Derek King feels a level of guilt where Amelia's concerned. However, as long as she was in the background, he could keep his eye on her, at the same maintaining his distance. When the new kid, Max, shows a marked interest in her, he is helpless against the tide of feeling he experiences - possessive, threatened, jealous.
"The line between love and hate is thin."
This was a pretty tense, heated read. I felt for Amelia and the things she'd had to put up with in the past. Derek is a pretty good guy underneath it all but it was kinda hard to like him, at the beginning, because his behaviour was inexplicable. His sense of ownership over Amelia didn't make sense when you looked at all the evidence of how he'd treated her in the past...or, more accurately, how he let her be treated. However, when things kicked off between them and he was past denying his true feelings, it was heartwarming to see him making the effort to be worthy of her. Amelia, herself, changed during the course of the novel - she grew bolder and asserted herself. She really put herself out there; made herself vulnerable to the boy she's grown to hate over the years.
Overall, a great read with plenty of teenage drama to titillate the reader. The future pairings in this series were clear to me, and I'm really keen to read the rest of it.
