The summer after senior year was supposed to be the best summer of my life.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It was supposed to be full of adventure and self-discovery and making love under the stars.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It was supposed to be about losing myself and finding my way.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Only, it wasn’t supposed to start like this.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I wasn’t supposed to go to that party.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
He wasn’t supposed to notice me.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
The hot jock with the trust fund and chip on his shoulder.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
My ex-boyfriend’s brother.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Noah Tedesco is so far out of my league he might as well be playing a different game.⁣⁣

—MY REVIEW—

'TRULY' 
is a dark, full length coming of age romance book by new to me author 'Carmel Rhodes.'

Ok I'm going to be brutally honest here, this book will not be for everyone, that's a fact, the hero does some questionable deplorable unforgivable acts which sent more than a few red flags (more like bombs) popping up all over the show. Please heed that warning..It's right up in your grill, there's no escaping it. He's going to push and pull you out of your comfort zones!! And yes you will end up despising him!! Not many people will even get through the first few chapters without feeling enraged with him!! I felt all those things!! So the question is, are you ready for him?

But if your like me who love their alpha's with a crooked tarnished crown, with asshole psycho tendencies then seriously you need not look any further than this book. This guy takes the cake!! He's pretty much obliterated all other a-holes and left them in his dust without so much as an apology!!

Now as for our heroine she definitely wasn't ready for the big bad wolf!! He ate her up alive!! She was untarnished, pure, gullible, and really when she needed a back bone it never came, she reverted to playing games which pretty much had me wanting to throw my ipad at the wall. And that ladies is where the angst flew into my bloodstream. At that stage I was done, they deserved each other. What they had was toxic, but at the end of the day it's these types of books which feed all my angsty needs. I hate to love these types of books!!

I flip flopped around with this book so much, like so much, that it did my head in!! I hated him, I liked her, I hated her, I liked him, until I thought oh for fucks sake it's not real life and threw myself at the mercy of the author and fell in love with everything she threw at me. For me I don't need pretty words and unicorns farting glitter, I seek out those nasty boys we can't connect with, and the girls that are too weak to walk away.
