Twenty-one-year-old Sophia Ross has lived under the pressure of her parents expectations since the tragic accident that shattered their once perfect family. Determined to start over where no one knows her, she answers a housing ad on Craigslist and takes a job at a little bar in a town she has never heard of. All Sophia’s looking for is a place to escape, somewhere she can hide behind her lies and keep herself distracted.
She just didn’t expect to be distracted by Corbin Kasey.
Twenty-five-year-old Corbin Kasey is stuck in his hometown, his job, and his life, spending more time covering for his Dad’s problems than trying to fix his own. To take his mind off everything he has the wild Kayla, his stable roommates, and the calmness of swimming in Mills Lake. He always thought it was enough to keep him from drowning in himself, until he meets Sophia.
Neither of them are prepared for their lies to be stripped away by a single kiss. But for Corbin and Sophia, the truth has consequences.

Um, WOW!!! This book surprised the hell out of me. In all honesty, I never read the synopsis, loved the cover and it was recommended by someone who I trust. I did not expect to stay up late into the night in order to finish this book in one sitting. I just could not put it down. There was something about the characters that I just fell in love with. They felt like family or life long friends. I was totally and utterly vested in this story that I did not want it to end. Sophia and Corbin have secrets. Secrets that are preventing them from really living life. Secrets that could destroy them. I loved how broken yet strong each of them were. I had to know their secrets. I honestly can not put my finger on what sucked me in. T.J has a magical quality to her writing that made me tune out the world around me and live this story. Not only did I love Corbin and Sophia, but their group of family and friends are people everyone should have in their life. I don’t want to say too much because you really need to let this story unfold in front of your eyes. I will say I was shocked to learn that this was TJ’s first novel, in my eyes she was a seasoned pro. I cant wait to see what else she has in store for us.
