review 1: I loved this book. I picked up this book after reading a review at michelenjeff. They certainly didn't steer me wrong. This was a good book. It's well written and has strong, believable characters. I'm usually leery of this type of story because of stereo types, the tendency to over dramatize the situation. However Ali managed to avoid any of that. I was most worried about Teddy's character, but if you can read this book and come away unaffected by his story, you have a heart of stone. Sal and Jess are equally good characters, and the effect bringing Teddy into their lives has on them is profound. it's a well balanced tale with a lot of heart. Sal and Jess are a wonderful couple, and very hot together. I think the only negative thing I can think of to say is that I wasn't ... morereally ready for it to end. Well done Ali!
review 2: 3.5 STARSI am not sure where to start with this book. I want to start off by saying that it's not a bad book, but it't not great either. The characters are somewhat likeable. Sal is great! He grabs you from the beginning. He is very thoughtful about others and gives 100% of his heart. Jess ... He drove me nuts. I understand that he wants to be there for his brother, but he did a lot of pushing away to his lover in the process. Jess just didn't seem mature enough throughout the book to be dealing with the situations that were going on. There was the one fight that he and and Sal got into and he refused to talk to Sal for three weeks. Sal didn't really even know what the problem was ... and to be honest I didn't either. Teddy was the kid that you felt sorry for. I was a bit frustrated with his character with how strong he seemed in the begining of the book to how weak he became toward the end. I would have thought that once he had the support of his brother that he would have wanted to stand up to his father and end the abuse once and for all. Then I was really thrown for a curveball at the end when he ended up with a girlfriend. The book was a bit all over the place for me. I never felt emotional for the characters :( I did enjoy Carmen and Beth! Happy Reading! less
