    When Mikayla imagined her prom night, she envisioned a fairy-tale evening full of romance. So when betrayal and tragedy come in quick succession, Mikayla is completely destroyed. Suddenly, everything she loved and everyone she relied on are tragically, irrevocably gone.

    Jake, a handsome boy she just met, happens to witness her loss. With no one to turn to, Mikayla is forced to depend on this near stranger and his family, and he in turn is determined to take care of her. But Mikayla—thrust into adulthood with no one to guide her—is desperate to contain her grief and hide what she considers to be her weakness. Mikayla and Jake both want more, but despite their growing closeness and intense chemistry, she tries to keep her distance and protect her heart. As he does everything in his power to win her trust, Mikayla must choose between remaining alone and safe or letting love in.

More Than This. I can’t even tell you how much I love this book, because I love it so FREAKIN much! It just has all the elements that I love so much in the books I read. It has Tragedy, Love, Recovery, Heartbreak, and the perfect Resolution. I mean, this book just hits all the key points that I look for in a book and leaves me wanting more.
So first off, this book hits some hard points pretty soon in the book. It was a little bit different from other books I have read as the betrayal and tragedy hit right in the first few chapters instead of the usual middle of the book road bump. Without giving too much away, I’ll just say that Mikayla’s prom night is probably the worst. Betrayed and then devastated. It can’t get any worse than that.
One thing I really really liked about More Than This, is the emotion that the author is able to give to the book. Every sentence is used with purpose and has imbedded with just so much feeling. I’ll be the first to admit that I totally got caught up in this book......

“I should lick him. Just his chest. NO! I’m not that wasted. Is he? Maybe he won’t remember if I just have one lick.”
“It's just you. It's only ever been just you. It will always only ever be just you.”
