Synopsis

The only thing in Jersey Kincaid's world that she has time for are keeping her grades up so that she doesn't lose her scholarship to South Texas University, playing the bass in her band, The Prototype, and satisfying her coffee addiction. Oh, and the occasional random hook-up she indulges in to pass the time.

Love? Eh, not so much. Save that crap for a Katherine Heigl or Natalie Portman movie.

Jersey's seen enough in life (courtesy of her Pops) to realize that undying romance is nothing more than a myth used to sell books and movie tickets. As she knows too well, the only thing inevitable in life is death—love is definitely not promised.

That's why when Jersey meets Isaiah "Zay" Broussard, with his soulful gray eyes, quick wit, and easy charm, she's determined to remain aloof. She doesn't have time to get sidetracked by fleeting fantasies, even if she does feel an unexplainable connection to Zay she's never experienced before.

But when his interest in her only seems to intensify, despite her attempts to brush him off, she gets to see a side of him and herself she didn't expect . . .

It took a lot for me to get through this book. Had it not been for me being a Wesleigh fan and listening on Audio I wouldn’t have finished it. Jersey was too much and Zay should’ve dropped her @$$ after she screwed him over the first time. I get she was dealing with trauma but so was Zay. The world......more

Goodreads review by Delaney on October 17, 2014

So, Jacinta Howard is two for two. I love her writing voice. She’s skilled at sucking you into a story, and after this one I’m looking forward to whatever else she writes. Despite the fact that these are young people, they’re very mature because of their life’s experiences, and I actually enjoyed Ha......more

Goodreads review by Jerrika on May 17, 2020

.............unpopular opinion. The whole Outcast cover band is corny. IJS. 40% DONE: Jersey is painfully unlikeable, trauma and all. SO IS HER DADDY AND THAT RAGEDY HEFFA HE BROUGHT IN THE HOUSE. This book was difficult for me, maybe because some topics were triggering. Because of that I was mad for t......more

Goodreads review by Deloris on May 22, 2019

This book is blues and love, the song of Zay and Jersey's relationship was like a well written song. The first time Zay lays eyes on Jersey I knew their story would be powerful and I was not disappointed. I was emotionally connected to these characters I cared and rooted for them even when they did......more
