Not Made to Last by Jay McLeanMy rating: 3 of 5 stars

I liked getting to know both Olivia and Rhys. How they met was quite amusing, but I soon got to see that Olivia had secrets that she was hiding from everyone. I liked how close she was to her brothers and would do anything to protect them. Having Rhys in her life threatened everything that she was trying to hold together.
Rhys had his own issues but felt at peace when he was with Olivia. There was something about her that drew him to her. He went out of his way to get her into his life and the longer that they were together the stronger their connection became. There were a few hiccups and things fell apart for them as secrets unravelled.
Some parts of this read that were so good and my heart ached for Olivia. Rhys was quick to overact at times, but took his time to realise what his heart wanted. There were a few moments that annoyed me, but overall it was a good read.

Two simple words hold the truth of our love: wait and hope.
Olivia
Rhys Garrett—recent high school graduate, ex-captain of the basketball team, and my brother’s rival both on and off the court.
Oh, and he’s also the guy I just hit with my truck.
Awesome.
To be fair, he had it coming.
Why else was he dressed in all black, in the middle of the night, if not to hide out amongst the darkness?
Rhys
I wasn’t looking where I was going or what was around me. I didn’t even see the headlights. Just felt the impact. And I thought, as strange as it was, that getting hit by a car may be the best thing that could’ve happened to me.
Until I opened my eyes…
…and she told me her name.
Some might call it fate, destiny, kismet…
A collision of souls.
One night.
One chance encounter.
The problem?
One night wasn’t enough.
But the more time we spent together, the more truths came to light.
And soon, we’d discover that what we once thought was meant to be…
…is not made to last.
