Synopsis:

Jamie Grey grew up tossed around between foster homes. At an early age he shut the world out, deciding he wouldn’t care. Whatever life had to throw at him, he would look the other way. Now his senior year is about to start and he’s been forced into yet another new home. This will be the last time, he assures himself. When an unexpected curveball comes his way in the form of a certain stubborn seventeen year old girl, Jamie soon finds out that life doesn’t always work out the way you plan it.

 

Beckett Chase has been entitled her entire life. Living in the plush landscape of Palm Beach, Florida, she’s never wanted for anything. She’s always taken what and who she wants with no remorse. When she sets her sights on Jamie Grey and she’s met with rejection, her descent from the top begins.

 

With a twist of events causing Jamie and Beckett’s worlds to collide, will they be able to put aside their differences or will fate intervene offering an entirely different option?

Review: 

I was given this book by author for honest review. Foster teen Jamie Grey is moved again this time to live with spoiled rich Dr. Jekyll Mr. Hyde  Beckett Chase. Teen angst and drama galore as well as a sweet love story combined to make this book unique. I loved the star stories at each chapter start, however there was some overlapping of point of views that I found difficult to adjust to going from chapter to chapter. And at the end it all works out to most of their satisfaction.
