Summary:

Ellie is just a normal girl, except the fact that her parents are split and one of them she hasn’t seen since she was little. A typical American family I guess you could say.
Once again Ellie is at an expensive boarding school because of her far off dad. She has repeated the motions over and over again, of leaving home, and knowing she is never going back like normal students do during breaks. One rich Dad in places unknown and a Mother whose heart broke long ago are all she has at home. At school she has more, she has friends and teachers for support, and all those minor details of family get lost in the crowd.
But this year at boarding school is different, something, or someone, is added to the mix and changes everything for Ellie. What happens when the girl with major trust issues, Ellie Conroy, falls for a boy who isn’t what he seems and it causes her to question who, or what she is meant to be? Will she make the change.

I liked the book but i didn't completely understand it. Every thing happened so fast and the last chapter just seemed to come out of no where. You didn't have any thing to lead up to it. This is really good though. I would love to read whole thing when you are done!

Amazing book! please continue it. Some "constructive criticism" would be on page 3 change " but she just chuckled. “Who’s the hot date, Tom?” to but she just went on, "Who's the hot date," she chuckled, "Tom." This would be because it sort of sounds as if your asking tom who his hot date is. I would also say that what happens when the waiter comes is a little confusing, but i guess she zones out. Still, overall definitly the best book by far, and im guessing (i may be completely wrong) but that the dude could possibly be her half brother?
