My Review:
It took awhile to connect with Cami, she seemed to be outside of herself, just making it one day at a time. It was strange. Then when I realized she was being abused, it made a lot more sense! I liked Adam, but did he have to be soooo different? It just seemed to add an aspect that wasn't needed. I think there's plenty going on in her life without adding it. I loved her with Adam and how Adam treated her. I especially liked her sister and their bond. I really just felt like Cami's life was very hard, but appreciated the break that being with Adam and dancing gave her.
Content wise: one h-word and several d-words, thanks to the name of a Broadway Musical, no sex, just kissing.
Disclosure: I was provided this book free of charge in order to express my honest opinion. I didn't get paid!
