Turning Home by Stephanie Nelson



When Brooke Kingsley finally captures the interest of her four-year crush—Dylan Crawford—her world turns upside down. Feeling alive for the first time, Brooke decides to spend her last three days of summer with Dylan and discovers there’s more to him than the rumors being whispered all over town. The problem is, Brooke’s father doesn’t want his daughter anywhere near the blue-collar bad boy. As Brooke leaves for college, she’ll realize that some boys aren’t easy to forget.

Dylan Crawford has hated the Roseville Snobs his entire life, but one particular Snob has captured his eye—Brooke Kingsley. He knows he should stay away from her, but willpower has never been his strong suit. Soon Brooke is all he can think about. When she leaves for school, Dylan tries to move on with other girls, but the memory of Brooke taunts him. There’s an undeniable pull to the very girl he’s been warned to stay away from.

When tragedy strikes the Kingsley household, secrets are uncovered. Brooke and Dylan must decide if what they feel for each other is strong enough to conquer their families’ dark past.

~~~~~My Review~~~~~(sorry possible slight spoiler)

I received a copy for an honest review and I definitely give this book a 5star review.
I loved the from the wrong side of the tracks story. The "she is out of my league, he could never fit in my life" type story was so good. This was one of those I don't want to put it down books and I am so glad I got the chance to read it. 
How often do we see people and judge them by what they look like, what they wear, who they know, or how much money they have? Probably more often then we even realize. We don't think about doing it, sometimes we just do. This book took people from 2 different social classes, one from money and one not from money and put them in situation in which they had to find their way around the problems they faced. And they did and it was fascinating. The determination of one and the defiance of the other made for a great pairing that I would love to have read more about, if the book had continued on for another 200 pages.
Brooke and Dylan were the perfect match for one another. I was so happy to read about the adversity they faced and their happy ending, especially since I was smiling right along with them. I was the cheerleader on the sidelines as they were back and forth fighting being together and then fighting to stay together.
Stephanie definitely has that knack for writing and captivated a new audience member. I can't wait to see what she comes up with next.

You guys may be surprised to learn that I am the most boring person you’ll ever meet. The most interesting thing about me is that I write books, most of the time in my pajamas and jacked up on caffeine.
I began writing six years ago for fun and published my first book in 2012. Since then, my hobby has become my job and I love every second of it.
I live in Illinois, in the country where I’m surrounded by corn and soybean fields. When I manage to escape my office, I enjoy fishing, spending time with my family and playing Super Mario Bros. and Donkey Kong. Yes, I’m a huge video game nerd.
