And then Beck died.
With Beck gone and the prophecy broken, Lia is cast adrift. Despite her parents' assurances that there are no expectations, she feels compelled to hold on to her past promises, even enrolling at the college that she and Beck were going to attend together. And when she finds herself attracted to a new boy, Lia can't acknowledge that her heart is moving on.
Good writing and an unusual family life (both Lia and Beck are army brats and spent their years growing up in various military bases) made the otherwise tired story interesting. But it only takes things so far. For not only do we have the dead boyfriend, but the new love interest is your typical mysterious and moody boy from the wrong side of the tracks. There's not enough new stuff here to really make for a memorable read.
