Book Description:
Twenty-year-old Camryn Bennett had always been one to think
out-of-the-box, who knew she wanted something more in life than following the
same repetitive patterns and growing old with the same repetitive life story.
And she thought that her life was going in the right direction until everything
fell apart.
Determined not to dwell on the negative and push forward,
Camryn is set to move in with her best friend and plans to start a new job. But
after an unexpected night at the hottest club in downtown Raleigh, North
Carolina, she makes the ultimate decision to leave the only life she’s ever
known, far behind.
With a purse, a cell phone and a small bag with a few
necessities, Camryn, with absolutely no direction or purpose boards a Greyhound
bus alone and sets out to find herself. What she finds is a guy named Andrew
Parrish, someone not so very different from her and who harbors his own dark
secrets. But Camryn swore never to let down her walls again. And she vowed
never to fall in love.
But with Andrew, Camryn finds herself doing a lot of things
she never thought she’d do. He shows her what it’s really like to live
out-of-the-box and to give in to her deepest, darkest desires. On their
sporadic road-trip he becomes the center of her exciting and daring new life,
pulling love and lust and emotion out of her in ways she never imagined
possible. But will Andrew’s dark secret push them inseparably together, or tear
them completely apart?

Review:
What an amazingly heart felt story; in the end I had tears
in my eyes. Camryn and Andrews meeting is defiantly fate. They are amazing
together and complement one another perfectly. This is the first book I’ve read
by J.A. Redmerski and I just want to say wow! The writing and the story is
wonderful, you really get pulled into the book, there were times where I refused
to put it down because I needed to know what happens next! The characters are
always on the move trying something new and getting to know one another. The
trials they are both put through are hard but they come through and are there
for one another. But Andrew is keeping a secret, one that just may take them
from one another.
I have to say the author nearly had me balling like a baby
at the end and things get twisted around. I’m not going to say anything else
because I don’t want to spoil the book for you but I highly recommend this
book! I’m going to be checking out more books by this great author.

About the Author
Addictions: Starbucks every morning, trolling Barnes & Noble’s shelves once a week, detesting winter, shopping flea markets and preparing for the collapse of society as we know it. Do I own a tin foil hat? Maybe. :-)
I was born in Arkansas and have lived here most of my life, except the couple of times when I lived in Pennsylvania. I started my first novel at the age of thirteen and have been writing something ever since. Generally, I love characters in life and on paper. I pay attention to people, especially those whose personalities make them different from the rest of us: the drug addict roaming the Laundromat that talks to himself, the young, inattentive mother in the park with the meanest kid on the playground – (the entire cast of ‘Swamp People’) – characters fascinate me and I hope that it shows in my literary work.
