'A light romance comedy tinged with drama but don't be fooled: the twists will guarantee you an entertaining reading' @officalfuryevans 'A quick, but a very amazing read. I love how it's not cliché and unique. Very different from all the 'Hotline' stories I've read on Wattpad. You should read it.' @ceraunophic 'I rate this story a 5 stars. This story has an amazing storyline and shows that sometimes you just don't get what you want. This is an amazing book with a very well thought out twist ending. This book is definitely not as cliché as I thought it would be, but I think that's a good thing' @thebuch *** "Hello this is Home Dep-" "Oh my gosh I need someone's help ASAP!" "What's wrong?!"
