Goodreads Summary:

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.

I mentioned earlier this week that I felt like that Live Through This seemed unrealistic to me in how the main character dealt with her rape and that it didn't seem to affect her enough. Easy seemed to handle it perfectly in my mind. I felt that Jacqueline is a completely realistic character that handled things like most any woman would. She was scared, worried, felt powerless but then she found ways to fight back and regain her power and gain control over her situation. I loved this book (and not just because Lucas was totally hot, smart and sensitive and all that jazz). I think Jacqueline is a wonderful main character and a strong woman. 

I highly recommend this book and it is definitely a keeper.
