Blurb from Goodreads:
When Alex meets Kate the attraction is instant.
Alex is funny, good-looking, and a little shy – everything that Kate wants in a boyfriend.
Alex can’t help falling for Kate, who is pretty, charming and maybe just a little naive…
But one of them is hiding a secret, and as their love blossoms, it threatens to ruin not just their relationship, but their lives.

3.5/5 stars
Alex and Kate meet at a concert after talking on the band
forum and are immediately attracted to each other.
They soon fall in love but a
secret will tear them apart.
This was my first Cat Clarke book and I enjoyed it.
The secret was just wow! I was not expecting it at all and
it made this book completely different to anything I've read before.
Out of Alex and Kate I preferred Alex as Kate annoyed me at
times with how naive she was but she was only 15!
I did feel sorry for them
both - Alex was struggling with guilt the longer things went without the secret
being revealed and I felt bad for Kate not knowing.
Reading this was a bit like watching a car crash - you know
it's going to end badly but you just can't stop watching, or in this case
reading.
I thought Alex and Kate were sweet together and was happy
with the ending.
Overall this was a well-written, good read with an
interesting theme with characters that you really feel for.
