4.5 stars of amazing!! Kendall is a loving, caring and outgoing individual who has faced a lot of heartache in her life... Finally moving on and starting her life and dreams until her world is shook up when she sees her First True Love Adam and things start to get complicated. Loved this book!! Kendall is easy to fall in love with and one of my fav heroines. This book had me on a emotional roller coaster. The relationship between Adam and Kendall had me screaming and hating Adam in the beginning and making me wonder what Kendall was thinking. This book has some crazy secrets and some heartbreaking twist and turns... Loved every minute of it!! Hope to read more about Kendall and Adams Journey!!

Excerpt
I stood at the cold dark water’s edge, my reflection staring back at me from the glasslike surface. The reflection of a girl that I no longer knew. I breathed in the overwhelming scent of pine and recognized the tranquility that surrounded me. The soft hum of the city in the distance, the echo of an eagle’s cry overhead, the steady drum of my heart—the only sounds that could be heard in the quiet serenity that was present all around me.Inside an entirely different scene existed. Whirling thoughts, like hurricane-force winds, blew through my mind while a dark, thunderous storm was raging inside my soul, cutting the power to the central organ of my existence—my heart. I was destined to weather this storm on my own. After all, like Mother Nature, I was the controlling force behind these conditions.
I threw a stone into the mirrored surface of the water before me and watched the small circular wave expand from the point where it broke through the stillness.
It was hard not to think of the stone as the choice I had made, the choice that inevitably created waves in the smooth waters of my life. The first lie, like the first ripple in the water, seemed so small but quickly became more significant. Each wave growing in size and depth, impossible to stop. The effect from that one choice spread through my life like the ripple moving across the surface of the water.
I longed for the stillness.
