4.5 stars!
Contemporary Romance
Well that was just epic ---
Lexi and Jack are just an absolute disaster but I can’t say
I blame them too much.
So for starters --- obviously this book is for a mature
audience… So don’t read it if you are easily offended.
Lexi meets Jack her first year of college… He is absurdly
hot and hanging out with him is extremely easy and comfortable. The first month
they meet, they hang out all the time… It is magical ;) But then our darling
Jack confesses he has a girlfriend back home even though everything inside him
wants Lexi in his life… He can’t end his relationship. Lexi, having a sense of self-preservation,
leaves him in his apartment, walking out of his life, and asking him one favor
is return for the month of lies --- that he never lie to her again.
Even though Lexi walks out she cannot shake him from her
life.
Avoiding Commitment bounces between the past and the
present. Although vague at the beginning, by the end of the novel your
heartaches for these two characters and how much they have royally messed up.
Lexi is constantly trying to fight her feelings for Jack,
but she would give into him every time no matter whom he was currently dating.
We see of the lies and lack of commitment towards one another chaning them and
in many ways breaking them apart.
It can be difficult to read novels like this when you have
had a past with cheating, but the author tells an amazing story highlighting
both parties. You eventually see how cheating and dishonesty, although, it may
hurt the people indirectly involve --- those truly suffering, for years, are
Lexi and Jack…
I couldn’t help but fight for Lexi and Jack --- I loved Jack
at times and absolutely loathe him in moments… but the fact that he was on this
continually destructive path broke my heart.
Lexi was confident, sassy, and a fighter… She knew what was
best but had a hell of a time fighting her overwhelming love and desire for
Jack …
Great supporting characters in this story --- Chyna (loving,
amazing, bff), Ramsey (ummm, still not sure --- but you seem alright), Bekah (ughh
--- seriously I hate you but anyways).
Just fantastic …
