THE EDGE OF NEVER

Twenty-year-old Camryn Bennett thought she knew exactly where her life was going. But after a wild night at the hottest club in downtown Raleigh, North Carolina, she shocks everyone-including herself-when she decides to leave the only life she's ever known and set out on her own. Grabbing her purse and her cell phone, Camryn boards a Greyhound bus ready to find herself. Instead, she finds Andrew Parrish.

Sexy and exciting, Andrew lives life like there is no tomorrow. He persuades Camryn to do things she never thought she would and shows her how to give in to her deepest, most forbidden desires. Soon he becomes the center of her daring new life, pulling love and lust and emotion out of her in ways she never imagined possible. But there is more to Andrew than Camryn realizes. Will his secret push them inseparably together-or destroy them forever?

The Review: “Just because one person's problem is less traumatic than another's doesn't mean they're required to hurt less” 

The Edge of Never has been a story that I’ve wanted to read since it was first release but I’ve just not had the time, so thankfully and luckily enough I managed to get an ARC – thus meaning I could bump this baby right up top in my review pile and am I disappointed with it? NO WAY IN HELL! It’s freaking awesome! 

Camryn’s story is one full of heart-ache and loss and she tries to keep herself to herself, so no-one can ever hurt her. I love that this was a self-discovery one and especially a road trip one. Cam really needed this time to herself, to figure out who she really is or who she really wants to be, but with the arrival of Andrew, her plans change. With Andrew’s arrival, Cam slowly starts to become a more open person, she starts to say whatever is on her mind and she also tries to do things out of her comfort zone. Andrew really is the light in this story – he’s open minded and fun but most of all honest. He says whatever is on his mind and Cam’s taken back by this. I think this is why they connected so much because Cam could always trust whatever Andrew told her. 

As a couple, they were fantastic. They weren’t without their problems because you know, no couple is perfect but as I said before, this was a story about self discovery and both Cam and Andrew discovered so much about themselves and each other. Their relationship wasn’t a rushed one, the author really took the time them to get to know one another and I loved that; it makes a huge impact on the story. 

“The heart always wins out over the mind, the heart, although reckless and suicidal and masochist all on its own, always gets it way. The mind may be what's best, but I don't give a shit what my mind is telling me anymore. Right now, I want to live in the moment.” 

The story itself is full of hidden secrets and emotions; it has the perfect blend of romance as well as hard times. At times, I had tears in my eyes but it’s wasn’t over done with emotions – it was just right....beautiful. 

The ending left me feeling……I’m not sure. I enjoyed but it almost felt as though it was a tad rushed. The real drama happens in the last 10% of the book and then it ends. So, I’m pleased there’s a second book – I’m eager to see what the author comes up with next.

Overall, The Edge of Never is a fantastic addition to the New Adult genre and I for one, hope J.A. Redmerski plans to write more outside of Cam and Andrew’s world.

Yay Donna! I loved this one too. Andrew and Cam were just awesome and had wonderful chemistry! I love how it ended and I'm a little nervous how the 2nd book will change things. Wonderful review. :)

The device is certainly worth considering, even at the full retail price and with only a $200
discount on the contract, it might make sense to consider paying the full retail.
Additionally, the wireless connectivity has good speed.
With this Samsung galaxy tab
media dock You can convenient sync the tablet with a
computer and charge it at the same time.

The WI-FI enabled chromebooks, by Acer will come somewhere around $350.
The introduction of the samsung chromebook
into the marketplace signifies a shift away from the traditional concept of a laptop where the devices itself
stores all of the information that you require.
" Should you not mind an inferior screen however , you will not taking the laptop with you - we may advise something from the 14-inch range.

Third, let's say you are not satisfied with the camera that you purchased and you decide to change. Make a list of your requirements, and then choose the right model for yourself. Well Canon, hate to say it, but most amateurs don't like to haul around an external flash
unit.

The Apple TV is much cheaper now, at only $99, a far cry from what it used to sell for back
in 2007 when it was more than $200. Click the "Start" button to convert 3GP to
apple tv on Mac.
One of the biggest changes is the fact that Apple has removed the permanent storage (hard drive) from the device.

The 13-inch model obtained a substantial processor upgrade
going from the old Core 2 Duo processor to a very fast Intel Core
i5 2620M. By using a quad-core processor chip or over to
16GB of RAM it's a proper monster -- a suitable beast that one could toss in your messenger bag and take with you all day without spending all night long protesting and complaining about an aching back. Nevertheless, if you are still willing to buy other refurbished Mac Book Pro other than those that are certified by Apple, then you are free to do so as long as you check the item well.

Find bargains for the family at local garage sales. Sometimes, the bargains can be found at different
stores, so shop around in your neighborhood stores for the best deal.
The devices must be hooked to a power source and be
connected to WI-FI for it to automatically back up.

These boot are eight also a half within high in the particular leg,
which is considered to be about calf height. Or a dark fabric lace skirt as
gold metallic blouse. But most popular form is just about the diamond engagement
wedding ring. Boots that might be made by Aussie companies are
labelled as Sheepskin Boots. http://exar.mortenpartiet.
