Simply Amazing!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t even know where to start with this review! Gawh…. I have actually owed Therapy for quite some time. I bought it when it was first released and it unfortunately got buried in my massive TBR. Even after I saw all the rave reviews I remember thinking… damn… I really need to read that book. I own it…. I really need to read it. But for some reason or another, life got in the way of me not reading it. Then I saw the blog tour sign ups and I immediately thought, I am all over this!! I need to read this book. Then after reading, my thoughts are now OMGAWD…. Why did I not read this book sooner!!!!!!! DO NOT BE LIKE ME AND LET IT SIT ON YOUR KINDLE!! READ THIS BOOK! It’s so well written and so emotional on so many different levels. I am one that does not cry very easy in books and I freaking cried! It’s been awhile since a book made me feel like this.Jess is the outcast. She’s a loner that uses sex, alcohol, and cutting to mask her pain. My heart so went out to her. She was constantly bullied by the head cheerleader Elizabeth and her clique. Elizabeth is that bitch I wanted to reach through my kindle and knock her ass out! She is such a bitch on so many levels! On one particular night, Elizabeth stumps to a new low and starts a fight with her at a local hangout spot. What Jess didn’t expect to happen was for Jace, the star athlete of the school and Elizabeth’s boyfriend, to befriend her. This starts a new friendship between the two. Jace, Jace, Jace… Gawh, I just love him…. He has the looks, the personality, and a heart of gold.“You’re worth more than you think. You have to believe that: then everyone else will too.”See… what a guy! Just. Love. Him! And let’s not forget this…““I. See. You. Jessica Alexander.” He cups my cheeks and repeats himself. You need to see you too. If you look deep enough, you’ll see a strong, beautiful girl who has the world at her fingertips. “Who would not fall in love with that??? He is perfect. They go through their senior year growing closer and closer. But when the fall comes, Jace leaves to go to college and Jess is determined to leave her home she grew up in and not look back. What Jace doesn’t know is that Jess has a secret. She feels like she has to keep this from him and sever all ties with him as it will only bring him down. He has his life ahead of him and she feels like she would just weigh him down. She changes her number, she tells her parents not to tell him where she is… and just like that Jace is no longer in Jess’s life.Fast forward six years… Jess is still using sex, alcohol, and cutting as an escape. After a DUI arrest she is court ordered to go to therapy. While there she meets Kingsley. He is going through his own personal demons and is attending group sessions to understand things better. Their friendship quickly blossoms and Jess starts to feel something she hadn’t felt in a long time… happiness. You know when things get content, s**t going to happen!!!!!!! Seems like Jess’s new therapist is good ole Jace’s finance and he happened to see her file on her desk. He appears at her apartment looking for answers as to why she just left him at that time ago. For him, he still has those strong feelings for her. Even though, he has finance, it’s like the past six years didn’t happen and they are back in high school.“I belong to you, Jess. My heart has belonged to you since I scooped you off the ground over six years ago. That has never changed.”Oh lord have mercy… now Jess must choose between two men that she has completely different feelings for. How do you choose? What happens when Jace discovers the lies Jess has kept buried for all these years. When I didn’t think my heart could take anymore, tragedy strikes and it literally left me heartbroken!!!!!!!!!! I so never saw this coming and it left me just shattered! This book is definitely one that is a MUST READ. If you love angst and heartbreak and want a book leaving you thinking, how the hell do I move on from this… this is it!!! 5 HUGE STARS!

OMG! An Absolute MUST Read!
My heart has been ripped out and stomped on then put back in. This is one of the most amazing books, I have experienced a full range of emotions, anger, heartache, ugly cry, and happiness. This just moved up to one of my favorite reads of 2014 and has moved to my favorites list in my kindle for future rereading. Just beware it is an emotional roller coaster that will have you wanting to reach in your ereader and punch someone and screaming NO!Jessica Alexander is a bullied and beaten teenage girl, sheWow....I am kinda speechless. This was an absolutely awesome read! I loved being inside Ehd's head. I just don't know where to begin.Elizabeth appears in Ehd's world when he is at the epitome of despair. Just when he thinks he will not continue on anymore. Ehd is a caveman! He does not understand any words that she is saying just that she makes a lot of noise that often times hurts his head. He is your typical primitive man, his purpose is to protect, provide and breed.Beh as he calls Elizabeth is very unusual to Ehd. She is loud and does not conform to the women that Ehd is used to. She is strange, and he likes it. Though we do not get to see into Beh's thoughts we can pick up basically what she is doing. This is a journey of two worlds colliding and how to make it work.Ehd is awesome, if I had to be thrown into his world I would totally fall in love with him. In his own way he is sweet and caring. He does what he knows to do but it smart enough to learn what it takes to keep Beh happy. It is proof that even without communication people can connect.I just do not have words to describe this book, you just have to read it! I am afraid I will give too much away. I hope the author is going to give us a look inside Elizabeth's head also. This book is exactly like its title, Ehd and Beh's love and life is Transcendent! Really everyone who loves love must read this book. It is funny, sad and exciting everything you love about books! has and does dread going to school everyday. She does not have even one person that she calls friend. She is suffering mentally, self harming, she has troubles at home that spread out for years to come. There has been one savior throughout the high school crap, Jace Collins has always tried to diffuse the bullying she endures though she doesn't know why.Jace is the all american high school boy. Good looking athlete with a heart of gold. He knows all too well the struggles Jessica faces and tries to help the best he can. Too late one night he picks Jessica up after a serious beat down and they become friends. Their friendship grows into a great love, but with all great loves there is great loss. Chances are taken and hearts are broken.Six years and a huge mistake later, their paths cross again. Jessica is still broken but she is no longer the bullied, beaten girl. She is finally forced do seek therapy for her mental illness. Jace is now engaged and will be married in 4 weeks! She is destroyed but realizes, you can not love someone else until you love yourself. She is trying to let Jace go. She meets Kingsley Arrington.Kingsley is battling is own internal demons, trying to understand mental illness and figure out what went wrong in his life. He befriends Jessica. He accepts her as she is, he does not try to fix her. He tries to build her up and show her how strong she truly is. Kingsley is a broken man who is healed by the love of a broken woman. But fate is a cruel bitch sometimes.Just when I thought we were going to reach a happily ever after in this book my heart was shredded. I loved Jace and I loved Kingsley. I didn't know who I wanted to prevail. I am not one to get emotional with books but if ever one would do it, this was it. There are twists and turns and I had no idea where this was going. I wanted to fight for Jess, I wanted to punch Jace. I wanted to hug Kingsley! I wanted to scream "what are you doing?". I want more of the story, I didn't want it to end. I want to make sure it all goes as it should. I loved Vivvie's character. It was just an amazing book!
