Shelby is nervous to start her senior year after spending the whole summer away from home. After all, it's hard to be carefree when you're trying to protect a secret.
Shelby was in a devastating car accident, and everyone in town thinks that she was undergoing more physical therapy in Denver. Instead, Shelby's mother enrolled her in a clinical program to stop the panic attacks that started after the crash. The treatment erased Shelby's memory of the accident, but she can't help feeling as if a piece of herself is missing, that the treatment took more than the doctors claimed.
So when Shelby starts hallucinating a boy with dark and mysterious eyes, she knows it must be a side-effect of the clinical program. Except you can't kiss hallucinations. And this boy insists that they know each other and are in love...
Let me start this review by saying a huge thanks to Sourcebooks for letting me part of this tour! I fell in love with this book and honestly it's one of my favorites for this year. So a huge thanks goes out to them for bringing this book to my attention.
When I asked to be part of this tour I didn't know much about this book and I sometimes enjoy it that way, I love jumping into a book not knowing what's going to happen or what's already happened in this case. I didn't even read all of the summary but at the same time I couldn't wait to jump into this book. I'll be honest all I read was the first two sentences of the summary before I wanted to read the book. That right there shows me as a reader that this book is going to be amazing and I wasn't disappointed in the least.
I instantly fell in love with author Renee Collin's writing style and couldn't make myself put this book down, seriously I couldn't even put it down to eat or cook dinner. The story line caught my attention and I just had to know what was going to happen next. I mean who wouldn't want to forget something in their past and especially something like Shelby needed to forget. (Don't worry that's not a spoiler its in the summary lol)
I love the mixture of contemporary and fantasy or science fiction mixed in this book, something you don't really see often. I love how the author mixed a love story in there also, I mean come on who doesn't love a great love story mixed with science fiction! I knew there had to be more to the accident than they were letting on in the beginning and even though I knew there was it still didn't take away from the whole story. I couldn't wait to find out what really happened. I also knew everyone in the story was hiding things from Shelby and I wasn't sure who to trust throughout the whole book, but then again that just made me want to read more.
This is hands down one of my favorite reads this year and I must now read more of author Renee Collin's books! So much love for this author and her writing style. If you haven't read any of her books it's a must and especially this one. Go get your copy today you won't regret it!
