Easy

I absolutely loved Easy by Tammara Webber! I read it when it first came out at the end of May and have not stopped thinking about it since. I originally read it on my kindle and loved it so much I decided to order a paperback copy. I had heard Tammara say that she was going to sell autographed copies on her blog. So I decided to patiently (okay, not so patiently) wait for it to become available. I can't gush enough about this book. Lucas is... wonderful. I mean he's the perfect package. He's got the bad boy vibe but he's a total smarty pants too. I also really liked Jacqueline as the main character. I've heard some people say that they didn't like her but I did. I thought Jacqueline was easy (no pun intended) to connect with. I also liked that she was aware of her mistakes instead of being so blindly naive. If I could give this book 10 stars I would. It has to be my favorite read of 2012 so far.

Here's the description: A girl who believes trust can be misplaced, promises are made to be broken, and loyalty is an illusion. A boy who believes truth is relative, lies can mask unbearable pain, and guilt is eternal. Will what they find in each other validate their conclusions, or disprove them all?

When Jacqueline follows her longtime boyfriend to the college of his choice, the last thing she expects is a breakup. After two weeks in shock, she wakes up to her new reality: she's single, attending a state university instead of a music conservatory, ignored by her former circle of friends, stalked by her ex's frat brother, and failing a class for the first time in her life.

Her econ professor gives her an email address for Landon, the class tutor, who shows her that she's still the same intelligent girl she's always been. As Jacqueline becomes interested in more from her tutor than a better grade, his teasing responses make the feeling seem mutual. There's just one problem--their only interactions are through email.

Meanwhile, a guy in her econ class proves his worth the first night she meets him. Nothing like her popular ex or her brainy tutor, Lucas sits on the back row, sketching in a notebook and staring at her. At a downtown club, he disappears after several dances that leave her on fire. When he asks if he can sketch her, alone in her room, she agrees--hoping for more.

Then Jacqueline discovers a withheld connection between her supportive tutor and her seductive classmate, her ex comes back into the picture, and her stalker escalates his attention by spreading rumors that they've hooked up. Suddenly appearances are everything, and knowing who to trust is anything but easy.

Here's the link to buy signed copies of all of Tammara's books: http://tammarawebber.blogspot.com/p/signed-copies.html

I haven't read her BTL Series but if it's anything like Easy it must be amazing!

Here's Pics of my paperback copy:



Beneath where she signed it is a poem from the book and one of Lucas' tattoos. (The poem is written by Tammara Webber)
It reads: 
Love is not the absence of logic
but logic examined and recalculated
heated and curved to fit 
inside the contours of the heart

Seriously, if you haven't already read this then you need to drop what you're doing and read it now.

P.S. Whatever you do, don't start this at night like I did. You won't be able to sleep because you can't put this book down.
