A nerd. A quiet art student. A nobody. 
Or perhaps, just some girl. 
These are the non-spoken titles I was known as since I started at Lake Shore Uni almost two years ago now. When given the chance to leave my horrific childhood behind - I didn’t hesitate. In fact, I was ecstatic to have the door hit me on the ass on my way out of town; because the only two things I actually loved in my traumatic life… 
Were coming with me.
And whilst the three of us shared the same beat-up truck when we moved here – that’s where the similarities unfortunately end. 
Ethan ‘The Mule’ Jones, is kind of a super star on campus. Everywhere he goes he seems to draw attention. I guess that’s what happens when you’re headlining papers as the star basketballer for the LS Eagles. But to me, he’s just Eth. A boy who still spends his Friday nights snuggled up watching movies with me, and who walks me to classes just to make sure I get there okay. He is my best friend in every way, and I can’t imagine my life without him in it.
And then there’s Jase. 
The truth is I knew from the moment I met Jase at the local skate park, when he was smoking a cigarette and teasing Eth for his poor skating ability, of how fiercely protective he was about those he cared for. From the time he blew his warm breath over my injured knee, to when he thankfully intervened on the most horrific day of my life. A day, that still haunts me when I am alone in the dark. 
He saved me. 
But Jase has his own demons too. Even if he doesn’t go looking for it, trouble always seems to find him. Which is why he has been absent from our lives for the past two years. 
Sometimes I wonder what he’s doing.
Quite often I worry if he’s okay.
And I always, always, think about him. 
Even though I shouldn’t.
From the earliest age I was a born storyteller. Ask my parents and they will tell you I had a gift for making a simple event seem like an elaborate one. Purposely? No. Innocently? Yes. It was my imaginary world that initially led me to believe I wanted to be an actor. All of that role playing and living in fantasy... it was an obvious direction for me. However, becoming quite uncomfortable with the limelight quickly saw that dream diminish. Over the years I turned my world of fantasy into stories, and eventually began writing them down. Before I knew it, 'Cut' had been completed. When I am not busy writing my next story, I am a working mum, housewife and sometimes hockey wag :) In other words, probably some kind of circus act who specialises in juggling ;) I hope you enjoy my blog, where I will be posting thoughts, other books I am currently reading and even sneak peeks of my novels. I encourage any feedback, comments or direct messages via my contact page should anyone wish to get in touch. I am so thrilled to be sharing my journey and hope you enjoy my stories as much as I enjoy writing them.
Dream often. Believe always.
HOSTED BY:


Sit back eat a Reese and decide if you are going to pick Ethan (Eth) or Jase?? Breezy I sure hope you know where your heart is going cause right now mine is torn between both boys. Do you pick safe or what your heart yearns for since you were a little kid? That is a tough one and I hope my heart doesn't get broken or one of those boys cause it's almost like the trio should stay together and move onto the next level. 
Bree had a horrible childhood and both these boys have protected her since she was younger. Jase more from a younger standpoint and Eth from a college standpoint. Both these boys are hiding their feelings from her and naive Bree doesn't see this. All she sees is her BF. Eth your struggles may not be as deep as Bree and Jase, but that smile still gets me every time even when we know your hurting. 
It's been Bree and Eth for the past two years until Jase resurfaces. What does this mean? Trouble with a capital T finds Jase. For Bree being as naive as she is, she was brave putting herself in danger. What kind of danger you say? Do you really think I am going to give away spoilers. NOPE!!
This is going to be one of the vaguest reviews ever cause all that I want to say would give stuff away so all I can really say is this is a great way to kick off a new series. LSU (Lake Shore University) can I occupy a dorm and just share in the movie nights with some food until book two is released? You will be captivated from beginning to end and your emotions will get the best of you at different points. Breezy, I wish you the best cause you have a huge decision on your ends. Will the Trio still be a Trio after certain events are realized? Waiting for book two is torture. As if biting your nails and sitting on the edge of your seat wasn't enough while reading book one. Haha! This continuous story cannot come soon enough.
