It's a TRAVESTY I tell ya!
I ran out of time on this one and wanted so badly to do a review as I have for the other 'FOREVER' books by @Ashley Wilcox. But I promise it is next!
My partner in crime has gone on a whimsical holiday around the glorious US so I'm left to do it alone and have failed.
Please don't let my failure stop you though, because I can assure you this...Ashley rocks!
Would Kayla finally stop running or would it all be too much to handle?

Excerpt:
She let out an
exasperated breath. “No. No, I gotta figure this out.” She turned to face me,
legs crossed, intertwined. “I don’t know what to do, Merrick.”
I felt it in my chest. She was lost,
pleading for help. I didn’t know if I was the best person to help her. I’d
lived just as fucked up a life myself. From the age I could run, I did, staying
at friend’s houses almost every day of the week, stopping home quick after
school just to make sure my mom hadn’t overdosed and was dead on the floor. I
did this almost my whole life…up until I ran here.
“I can’t really help you, babe, if I
don’t know what happened,” I told her as sympathetically as I could, looking
into her sad eyes. Even if I wasn’t the most qualified person to give advice, I
wanted to help, but I also needed to know what happened first.
Kayla rubbed her face with her
hands, keeping them over her eyes for a minute longer. She was thinking;
questioning if she was ready to spill. I didn’t want to force her to do it, so
I sat there quietly. I wish I could just sweep her up and run far, far away;
take her away from all the bad in her life permanently, but that would mean I
had to run again, and I was done running. I couldn’t do it anymore.
“I loved him.” Her voice was a
whisper. She removed her hands from her face but only to look down to her
crisscrossed feet. She couldn’t look at me while she told me, and I was okay
with that. “I let my guard down when I knew I shouldn’t have, but I couldn’t
help it.”

About the Author:
Some may consider me a jack of all trades, but I consider myself well rounded.
I’ve waitressed, styled hair, answered phones and, most recently, worked full time as mom to my two beautiful little boys.
Then there was this book… Everyone and their brother started talking about this book series titled Fifty Shades of Grey by EL James. I didn’t really pay attention to the craze at first, since I wasn’t a big reader- okay, I didn’t read at all. But curiosity got the best of me, so I downloaded it to my kindle.
I was immediately hooked. I read the whole series in three days. Yes, three books in three days.
I kept finding all these great books that I HAD to read (just ask my credit card!).
Then I started hearing voices. Voices that turned into stories; stories that were begging to get out of my head.
I started writing them down on scraps of paper. Then I transferred them to my computer. Before I knew it, Planning on Forever was born.
The voices in my head are still talking, so I’m still writing.Links: http://www.ashleywilcoxauthor.com/ http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Ashley-Wilcox-Author/534100859949004 https://twitter.com/ashleywilcox55 http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/6564533.Ashley_Wilcox?from_search=true
