The summer after senior year was supposed to be the best summer of my life.
It was supposed to be full of adventure and self-discovery and making love under the stars.
It was supposed to be about losing myself and finding my way.
Only, it wasn’t supposed to start like this.
I wasn’t supposed to go to that party.
He wasn’t supposed to notice me.
The hot jock with the trust fund and chip on his shoulder.
My ex-boyfriend’s brother.
Noah Tedesco is so far out of my league he might as well be playing a different game.
Noah wasn’t supposed to look twice at a girl like me, but he did.
Now that I’m on his radar, my life will never be the same.
Truly is a dark coming of age romance that explores themes of dub-con and non-con and happily ever after. Proceed with caution.
Carmel Rhodes is a new to me author and I am so glad I decided to read Truly. Truly is young and ready to take on the world and she never saw Noah Tadesco coming. Noah is literally the big bad wolf. At times I loved him and at others, well I wanted to hit him. He was cruel, cold and at times seemed totally unredeemable. He was always in control.
I have to say, bully romances are some of my top favorite reads and this one blew me away. I do have to note this one will push all your buttons, so if that is not for you, this story may not be for you. For me, I devoured it. Truly is angst-filled and will have you ready to throw your hands up in the air many, many times, however, let me tell you, it will also captivate you.
