when city girl sophia is forced to move to the small town of revival, illinois, she's not thrilled. when she meets her bad-boy, temptation-on-a-stick neighbor/landlord ryder she's even less so. not that she can really explain her visceral reaction to ryder.
the thing is, in head over heels, that visceral reaction is lust and sexual tension and chemistry and just pure heat. the tension between sophia and ryder crackles on every page, every scene they are together. nearly every interaction they have, no matter how antagonistic ends with them kissing each other so wildly that they nearly have sex while fully clothed in a room full of people. the world fades away and they are the only two who inhabit it.
i loved their relationship. i love how it grew from this insane, lust-filled haze to something deep and meaningful. sophia has always struggled with being a wild-child. her impulses and her open heart leading her to hurt, but ryder knows this and understands this about her. at one point he says he has no need to tame her, because he likes her wild. her wild feeds his. he becomes the person who knows her best. who loves her best. and it's not an easy path for them, they struggle and there is so much angst. but oh, there is so much love. it can't contain itself.
this one was such a good read. these two characters couldn't have been better matched.
