Synopsis
I am a slut. No worries. I've come to terms with it, and you will too. I’m not one of those girls who thinks she’s too plain, too fat, too skinny, too shy … no, I don’t have that kind of luck. I’m the girl who knows she’s just right for everyone. — Denver A reputation as a manwhore–with–a–heart–of–gold tends to precede me. But, I don’t do girls with issues, that is until this girl. It's this girl I want to fix. This girl I want to protect. And maybe … more. — Ransom Being in love with the same girl your entire life isn't all it's cracked up to be. She uses me in every way imaginable. How does she see me? I am her perpetual one-night stand. No strings, no attachments. Just mind-numbing sex ... for her anyway. — Greer Feeling like the life is being choked out of her in the small town of Anaconda, Montana, Denver Dempsey craves the escape that college offers … even if that means leaving her “best friend with benefits” and looking for a new way to forget. Thinking she's found the perfect hookup in Ransom, Denver's outlook on college is bright. That is, until Greer shows up looking for a second chance, and Ransom's interest turns to hatred. Love. Hate. Triangle. Who's using who?
MY REVIEW
Well this book was a little difficult to get into for me. I stayed with it and was grateful that I did.
Denver Dempsey is a different character all together. The girl is a champion barrel racer and a slut. At least that is how she sees herself. As the saying goes.....Like mother, Like daughter...Right? Well that is how people see her and she is not afraid to embrace it. Denver has had a difficult upbringing, a mother that is more interested in milking men dry than her own daughter. A father that is far away and really sled not have time for a daughter let alone feelings for her. So she finds solace in the one person that has always been there, her best friend Greer.
Greer and Denver have always been best friends and neighbors. There families friends for a time. Now that they are older and things have changed in there lives. They see each other in a different way. Denver uses Greer for a release and Greer uses Denver for a connection wanting more.
Once she leaves for collage Denver thinks Greer has a shot for a clean start away from her and all the hurt and pain she put him through. Well I think some people are glutton for punishment. He sure is. Now there is a new player in Denver's sight that she can not seem to pull away from. John Ransom or Ransom as he prefers to be called. Champion Bull Rider and he has done his homework on Denver. He knows that she is the best at her sport.
Well things get sticky for a little while and Denver has made a promise to Greer that she will TRY a relationship with him. He loves her and I think that Denver loves him in some way. She has just had a real shitty upbringing that has really screwed with her head.
Well a lot of events happen there was one that I was freaking out reading that completely changed everything for me. I don't know how you can go back. It was OMG......No.......wait.......asshole....this makes sense now......NOOOOOOOOOOO.....I am going to rip his head off.
I can't give you more information, just read the book. It does not disappoint.
