Goodreads Synopsis:

Rescued by a stranger.
Haunted by a secret
Sometimes, love isn’t easy…


He watched her, but never knew her. Until thanks to a chance encounter, he became her savior…

The attraction between them was undeniable. Yet the past he’d worked so hard to overcome, and the future she’d put so much faith in, threatened to tear them apart.

Only together could they fight the pain and guilt, face the truth—and find the unexpected power of love.

A groundbreaking novel in the New Adult genre, Easy faces one girl's struggle to regain the trust she's lost, find the inner strength to fight back against an attacker, and accept the peace she finds in the arms of a secretive boy.

Cover: The cover is extremely adorable! You have the main character Jacqueline and Lucas looking very intimate, and oh my, how cute! I usually don't particularly enjoy having faces on the cover, but this guy is so cute! He's exactly how I would, and do, picture Lucas. Overall, really cute cover.

Plot: I. Loved. This. Plot! This novel has many good lessons and messages to provide to the reader. Although it is fiction, it does encounter real life issues. Rape and rape victims are widely discussed in the story, because the plot falls around a nearly tragic event that takes place with the protagonist, Jackie. You see, Jackie (her nickname) is in college, and just broke up with her boyfriend of almost three years. She is devastated. He was all that she could ever think of. Until one day, at a Frat party, on her way out, she is approached by one of her ex's friends, and attacked. She is almost raped, until Lucas, our hero, rescues her and gives the guy a good beating. Since that day, she notices Lucas around the hallway more and more, and sooner or later, they begin to speak, and things happen. Lots of wonderful things.  The story overall really impressed me, and hey, I'm such a sucker for romance ;).

Characters: 
Jacqueline: I loved her character! She was fierce, independent, smart, and an overall well developed character. In the beginning she did annoy me a bit, due to the fact that she  was so worked up about her break up with her boyfriend. (Maybe because I just wanted her to kiss Lucas already, haha.) However, in the end, she forgot her past, and let go for Lucas.

Lucas: My, on my. One of my new favorite male characters! He is so adorable! He's dark, sexy, tall, tatted up, and just everything I would look for in a male character. Or just a male in general, haha. Seriously though, those tattoos are just, really, hot. He was a witty, smart, brave and bad ass character. I loved him without a doubt! Good job Tammara Webber! :D

Writing: The writing was extremely lyrical. I had no issues reading the story for hours straight. The words flowed really well together, and the dialogue was really fun to read through. I love when novels allow me to enter the story with such an ease, just like Easy has done for me. At times I found myself re-reading a paragraph, not because I didn't understand, but because I just loved what it said, and I wanted to experience it all over again.

Rating: I loved this book so much, and will probably read it again some time soon! So without a doubt, I gave this novel a 5 out of 5 star rating!
