Blurb (Goodreads):

Shaylie is a typical fifteen-year-old girl from a religious family. Terrence, on the other hand, is not your average boy.

To Shaylie, Terrence has always been the enigmatic, aloof, talented and temperamental older brother of her best friend, who has never given her a second look. Until they are thrown together on a date.

Their first date sparks an unlikely romance that confuses Terrence, who has long pushed people away because of a secret he has kept throughout his life. But Shaylie is patient with him, giving him a chance to feel things he has never felt with anyone else before.

Will they overcome the challenges that stand in the way of their budding love? Or will a happy ending ultimately be too much to ask for?


My Point of View (POV):

*I based my review on the story originally posted on Wattpad*

It is a story about smart best friends na nakipagpustahan sa kapatid niya to prove that they are still the type of girls who can ask for a date. Actually hindi lang dahil doon, madami rin kasing events na nangyari that caused things to appeared out of nowhere.

It is a one sided story which means side lang ni Shay yung nalalaman mo. Some parts are too lame to read, wala akong makuhang emotion from it kaya siguro may times na tinatamad ako magbasa. Too boring cos of too much detail. May mga bagay na hindi naman na masyadong kelangan sa story.

But behind all those things, I love the story though hindi ito yung masasabi kong perfect. Madaming turn out of events na akala mo ito pero hindi, kasi kabaliktaran ng iniisip mo yung mangyayari. An example is the prom date, dapat lalaki mag ask for his date but it's the other way around which is napatawa talaga ako. Uncommon is the right term for the scenes. May mga kilig scenes ka na masasabing ang stupid mo Shaylie!! Hahaha! #PantasyaPaMore

Though may pagka cliche yung ending part, naramdaman ko yung kaunting sakit pero kailangan pang hugutin.

The idea of the story is not merely focused on the characters but into something special that I never thought na pwede maging subject sa isang story. That's what amazed me.

May book 2!! Let's see what will happen after the tragic ending.
