BLURB:
My dick never got me in half as much trouble as my heart..
We were high school sweethearts. I was head over heels for
her and no one could tell me we weren’t going to last forever. College? Going
pro? My family’s money? None of it mattered. She was all I needed.
Then she ripped my heart out. But I’m not going to let that
happen again.
She’s back. Invading my life and acting like she was the
wronged one. The pain is still there, but I can’t keep my eyes off her. I can’t
stop thinking about her and how much was left unsaid between us. Being this
close is making me question everything I thought I knew about her.
This time everything will be on my terms. Everything…

REVIEW:
This was my first introduction to Maya Hughes and her Kings of Rittenhouse, I'm happy to say that I really enjoyed her writing and the emotional roller coaster she created for her characters that was both tear jerking and beautiful when it came down to how much these two people went through.There is a lot of angst and anger in the beginning of this story, mostly coming from Emmett. His heart was broken by Avery who four years ago was his everything, until their relationship turn a bad turn. Now four years and Emmet is a professional hockey player and his relationship with his parents is starting to looking better with them actually putting in the effort of contacting him. Even with all the positives the past of what happened between Avery and him is still bitter inside him. Where Avery who is now happy to see her little sister graduate from high school is now at the point in her life where she can concentrate on what shes going to do. Her friends invite her on a trip that ends of bringing her face to face with her past and Emmett.
This story is all about second chances, about two people who needed to open about about what happened, but both kept things locked away that it hurt them both. I wanted to shake them both awake at times because if Avery would of just told Emmett about everything or if Emmett would of asked question, maybe these two would of had so much heartache. But as I got to know these characters I understood why, especially Emmett with his insecurities. Avery had so much strength especially with what she would do for her family.
Overall this was a great emotional story for me, I loved the side characters and really feel I need to read the first two to get more in depth with what happened in this book and to know more about how it all began. Other than that this was a great introduction to a new author and a series I'm definitely going to read more of.
