~ Synopsis ~
This book is about That
Girl…
The girl who leaves behind her past, including her name; runs away from home and vows to never let another identity claim her again. Broken dreams, an abusive step-dad and ugly memories from her childhood are the only shattered remnants that have the ability to haunt her.
With no money, an endless blank slate laying ahead of her and no hopes for the future, she sets out to survive at minimum wage jobs, moving from town to town, changing her name with each move, and never allowing glimpses of her past to threaten her empty future.
Average in every way, from her looks to her personality and even her style, there is not much to remember about her. When she abandons one town for another, she leaves behind her fake identity in the search of the next one, while leaving people asking themselves, “I wonder what ever became of that girl.”
This was her reality until Lincoln Wilks.
The number one defensive football player in Fort Collins who finally names That Girl.

~ Review ~
This is not your everyday college romance.....this book was AMAZING!!! We could all use a Lincoln Wilks in our life. Someone to look past the physical and see straight to your soul. Someone who's touch can heal old wounds and make you yearn for living instead of existing.
This story was about not allowing your name or circumstances to define who you are. It was about using your inner strength and determination to forge forward and make a life for yourself.
I couldn't put this book down. The characters grabbed my attention from the first page and had me eagerly turning them to see where the story was going. There were definitely a few WOW moments but the story in itself was truly well written that you felt like you were right there with them.
The one thing I would like to see is HJ Bellus to give us Jazzy and Old Man's story. I often thought about her through out the story and with Old Man's motto stuck in "That Girl's" head it made me want to know more.
Do yourself a favor, if you are new to the works of HJ Bellus grab this book! Then you can go grab the My Way Series and see why her writing is so captivating.
