Ella used to be a rule-breaker with fiery attitude who wore her heart on her sleeve. But she left everything behind when she went to college and transformed into someone that follows the rules, keeps everything together, and hides all her problems. But now it's summer break and she has nowhere else to go but home.
Ella fears everything she worked so hard to bury might resurface, especially with Micha living right next door. If Micha tries to tempt the old her back, she knows that it will be hard to resist.
Micha is sexy, smart, confident, and can get under Ella’s skin like no one else can. He knows everything about her, including her darkest secrets. And he’s determined to bring his best friend, and the girl he loves back, no matter what it takes.

I received a copy of The Secret of Ella and Micha courtesy of NetGalley and the publisher.
Wow! Talk about two screwed up individuals! How could I not pity Ella and Micha while reading this book? The two of them were neighbors from childhood, became best friends, and eventually fell in love, but not without some serious bumps in the road! The shit hole town they grew up in is bad enough, but parental abandonment takes the cake. I fell in love with the characters and couldn't stop reading their story, hoping they would get a happy ending and overcome their situations. Jessica Sorensen has written some amazing books, and definitely one to keep an eye on!
