Running in Place (Mending Hearts #2) by L.B. Simmons



Synopsis

****NA Contemporary Romance, can be read as a stand alone. Due to theme of Child Abuse, Explicit Language, Mild Violence, and Sexual Situations - Recommend Readers 18+******

Tatum O’Connell:
Some call me a party girl. People see me as happy, full of life, with absolutely no cares in the world. They see what I want them to see. But no one knows me - really knows me. Not even Noah Reese. Mr. Perfect is always watching me, most likely judging every single imperfect thing I do. But, if Noah wants to keep an eye on me, that’s just fine. I definitely don’t mind. I just hope he doesn’t have any plans to save me from my new-found life of self-destruction because in order to save me, he will have to see me…
And I’m never going to let that happen.

Noah Reese:
Perfect. That’s me. That’s the only acceptable way to be, according to my father. Perfect grades. Perfect manners. Perfect athlete. Perfect SAT scores. Perfect college. And recently, I was accepted into the perfect med school. My future has already been mapped out for me and there’s nothing that can change that. Not even Tatum O’Connell. That girl is out of control, yet for some reason, I can’t seem to keep my distance from her. I watch her closely, hoping that one day she’ll let me in, but watching her lead her life down the dangerous path she’s on right now isn’t easy…
I have a feeling I’m about to find myself swept away by the hurricane that is Tatum O’Connell.


“Two fleeting souls,
Unknowingly tethered.
Too slowly drawn,
Impatient fate calls.
The jolting collide intertwines their lives
And splinters their walls.”
“Catalyst” – Noah Reese

Our 4.5 Star Review

Tatum's life has been havoc since her fathers death when she was just six years old. Living with the abuse of her mother and an older brother who didn't believe her regarding the state her mother forced her to live in. She has grown up believing that she's not good enough for anything...so why try too hard. 
Noah is Mr. Perfect always doing things the right way and always following the rules. What Tate doesn't know is that he's been watching her from afar and his life isn't quite as perfect as everyone thinks. 
When the two of them get to know each other attitudes collide, but emotions that instant draw between them begins to grow. No matter how hard they try to fight their attraction is continues to hold them tightly. Their both broken in their own way, can they fix each other together or will their perfect time never come?

Tatum's doing the best she can with what she's got and I loved seeing her learn how to be better with the help of everyone else, but also by accepting who she is. 
Noah and his obvious OCD ways were just too funny and cute and a guy that can write lyrics and sing them is definitely swoon worthy material. 
I loved the last few chapters and how they kept you guessing at how things would end, but it ended with a great bang!

Loved this series. And I want more...
