Bailey Gray is tired of her perfectly planned life. Everything about her life has been organized and lived out to the expectations set of her parents. She is the class valedictorian, has perfect grades, the perfect friends, a perfect boyfriend, basically perfect life...or so everyone thought. That's when she realizes the path planned isn't always the path chosen.
On graduation day she makes a decision. One that changes everything she thought she knew about her intended future.
On a whim, she runs away with the town rebel, Dylan Wade, in search of the unknown.
Dylan Wade isn't looking to run away from anything.
He knows what he wants as he's been waiting on it for years.
On a journey to find the unknown, they discover a friendship they once knew along the open highway and have not a care in the world. Between the yellow and white lines of the heated summer asphalt, a spark draws them together as Dylan's past and Bailey future try to ripe them apart.
Could it be that Dylan and his GTO are exactly what her perfectly planned life needs?
Review
As soon as this book came out I was super excited to read it and jumping all over the place to sign up for the blog tour. I mean come on.....this is the same woman who gave us Jameson Riley and I could not wait to read another one of Shey's books! Let me tell you, I was so not disappointed when Shey brought Dylan Wade into my life! It does not matter if Shey is writing about racing or an amazing journey about discovering yourself and finding true love, bottom line is she can write! Her ability to make you connect to the characters and feel their emotions is amazing. 4.5 stars.
Bailey is not happy with her perfect life. She lives her life the way everyone wants her too - perfect boyfriend, perfect grades, perfect looks but she is unhappy. On a whim at graduation she takes off with her childhood best friend Dylan. She hasn't spoken to in years but has silently watched him from afar and he has always held a piece of her heart. Dylan, being the town rebel is running from his own demons. He has been silently waiting on Bailey to come back in to his life. They embark on a summer journey....a road trip bucket list where they find comfort in each other, love, and friendship. The question is can these two run away and escape the past or will the past come looking for them?
“It was a summer of tears, laughter, colors that bled lies and denied the truth. It was the kind of love that knew no bounds, tangled emotions that were strong.”
I adored this book. Shey is a writer that I will look for every single one of her books to release, and buy and read every one. Waiting For You is a beautiful emotional story about true love, loss, and self-discovery. If you haven't read Waiting For You yet, you must! Then go back and purchase Shey's other books and read them too, you will not regret it!
