I used to be “Isabel Jenkins, child prodigy.” As lame as that sounds, at least it was
an identity. But now I’m not sure what I am. I just failed the most important exam

a college freshman, but this time I’m shutting the books and majoring in being

good thing about school has been getting to know my insanely hot RA. Marshall
Collins makes me wonder about everything I missed while I was growing up too

author of the Between Breaths series
“Loved! Fans of Huntley Fitzpatrick’s My Life Next Door and Tammara Webber’s
Easy will fall hard for this book.”—Krista Ritchie, co-author of the Addicted to

***I received a complimentary copy for my honest review***
This was my first read from author Julie Cross and I must say I will be reading more.
This was a very enjoyable Young Adult read! I absolutely loved the characters.
Isabel Jenkins was such an interesting character very different than the normal female character in books.
And Marshal I found to be very swoon worthy. This two where a very interesting pair.
Love the story line! Will differently be reading more for Julie Cross!
