REVIEW
I feel so happy and giddy and just blessed.

 I always wished I'd get to see these two's story from their own POVs and wow it was so much more than I'd ever imagined. We see so much of the core six, I could cry about how much that makes me happy. Yes, it's mostly moments we've lived from their eyes before but now getting to see them from the other side is just so precious. Every Lo and Willow moment had me close to freaking tears, specially when Willow officially meets him. My heart.

 Willow and Garrison's story is told in then and now chapters and I loved that so so much. We get to see the first time they met, which was not the moment I thought!! We get to see how they become best friends and each other's safe haven *eyes glistening* and then we get to see them working on their futures while doing a long distance relationship... oh man, it's so emotional reading about them missing each other and how distance emotionally and physically affects them. I feel so protective over these characters and boy they don't have it easy... they never did.

 Krista and Becca are truly capturing how hard a long distance relationship is... the time differences and how hard to talk they make it... the second guessing, the doubts and fears...boy did these two make my heart hurt. I feel so much for them and Willow will be in London for 4 freaking years, I doubt it will get any easier.

 Garrison completely tore my heart apart. There is so much going on inside his head... so much hate and self-loathing... I truly hope he gets some professional help to work through all that emotional heartache and anger.

 Willow, my sweet Willow. Gosh, she's so relatable... the social anxiety and awkwardness, the nerdiness. I am her, she is me. But despite all that, she is so brave and she slowly puts herself out there and makes some friends in a new country, all the while missing her family and boyfriend back home. I could also relate to that and it just made it hurt all the more whenever she talked about Garrison and her the core six.

 I cannot wait to read Wherever You Are. I honestly could have kept on reading about these two for days on end. I love them so much. My heart was SO full while reading Whatever It Takes, even with all the angst and emotion going on. I was just so happy to finally be reading about these two.

AVAILABLE NOW!!


Blurb:
I HAVE A BAD REPUTATION.

Call me what you want: Bad Boy Next Door. Trouble. That Kid Who Can’t Do Anything Right.

When Willow moves into my neighborhood, nothing should have happened. She’s geeky. Shy. A true wallflower.

Willow is a good girl.
Too good for me.

And how the hell was I supposed to know that she’s related to Loren Hale—yeah, that douchebag celebrity that lives on my street. The same guy I've been pranking by spray painting vulgar words on his mailbox and worse. Much worse.

Don't ask me why I do the things I do.
Don't ask me why it had to be her.

I'm cursed. Simple as that. But here's the thing about people who are cursed—they break everything they touch.

And yet. . .I still want to touch her.

Whatever It Takes is the first book in the Bad Reputation Duet and can be read and enjoyed without reading any of Krista & Becca's other novels.
