review 1: 4.5 Stars!Casper and Farrah. Man, I was really looking forward to their story, and it did not disappoint. Casper is Callie's brother, Cody, and he has been watching out for Farrah for years - or, as well as he could from across the country while he was in college. His sister experiences one too many dangerous situations, however, which causes Casper to leave school and decide to join up with The Aces, as his brother in law, Grease, is a part of them, and he wants to help get back at the people that have been hurting Callie for years. He now also wants to protect Farrah - from the world and from herself. Farrah has had a really difficult life. She lived with an abusive mother, who also watched while she was abused by her mother's boyfriend, until other people because aware ... moreof it and finally started to protect her - other people being her father. Their story was one of the hardest I have read recently, as Farrah only knows that her father did not seem to want her, and he did nothing for all of the years that she was abused and hurting. In fact, the only family Farrah claims is Callie, her and Grease's son, and Gram. She also claims Cody, but only from a distance. Farrah was such an amazing character. Whenever you have someone who dresses according to her mood and whatever decade she feels like representing that day - you know that she is hiding a lot. She always has to be dressed up, with full make up on, to feel like she is wearing her armor, and the first few times this armor drops or is attacked are truly heartbreaking to watch for her. After being shot, Cody comes for her, as he is tired of waiting for her. He begins to fight her for herself, and slowly, her walls begin to come down. Cody has seen all of her recent past, however, so he messes up a few times and also hurts Farrah. Gram and her sister, Lily, are such great characters, however, as they are supportive of all these girls, yet they also push them to realize their inner strength. I can't wait to see what happens next, after the way that this book ended.
review 2: I found it hard to get into at the start and then I couldn't put it down until it was finish I love the other 2 books and was looking forward to read about Cody/Casper and Farrah.There were so many emotions going on first I was sad then laughing, sad, crying, sad and then WOW !!!!! Didn't see that coming, with the stuff you read in the first 2 books about Cody and Farrah and what happened to her so much more happens and she is so strong and doesn't even know how strong she is.This book is divided into before and after and it realy gets crazy in after and that were the WOW!!!!! Comes in and also you meet Aunt Lily who is Gram Rose's sister and they are a giggle.The only thing I want to ask is about the end of the epilogue Nicole Jacquelyn I hope that is the next book cause ending like that and leaving us to wait is cruel......? less
