I love characters who are a little different and feel very real. Wyatt’s shyness definitely attracted me to this book but Longley’s writing had me falling in love with him. (I get the idea though if I’d read the first book, I’d probably already been in love ;) )

He’s always been an introvert but his scars has only kept him from breaking out of it over the years. When he’s with someone he’s comfortable with he’s a totally different person. And time spent with Kayla has her seeing the playful, funny, caring man he is under his hoodies. And the way he is with her son has everyone’s heart turning over.

Kayla’s hesitation on getting involved with anyone, even the obviously awesome Wyatt, is very understandable. Married early because of a pregnancy, she doesn’t have a lot of experience with happy relationships and finishing school while being a single mom takes up a lot of her energy.

But of course Wyatt is going to be hard to resist and when he finally finds something he wants this bad, he’s not going to give up easily. Even if it means coming out of his shell :)

(Can stand on its own)
