Summary:

What happens when the person who damaged you for life... becomes the person you trust the most?
Caleb Becker spend the past year in juvenile detention.
Maggie Armstrong spent the past year in hospitals and physical therapy.
Two teens who were scarred one fateful night are going to have to face their greatest challenge yet - meeting up with eachother again.

My Thoughts:

This book is one of my favorite books of all time. No joke. Ms. Elkeles creates a story so close to home, its incredible. She presents a very tough question. If someone ruined your life, would you be able to forgive?
Leaving Paradise is about a book where two people whose lives have been ruined meet up and are forced to work together. Through that work relationship, a blooming romance occures. But this book is filled with twists and turns. Betrayals, Secrets, Barbie doll whores named Kendra. It really is a fascinating tale.
I hate the ending but i caught wind that a sequal to this book is coming out this summer. So maybe, ill enjoy it a little more.
I highly recommend this book.

So... go to your local bookstore or order online just as long as you dont make this book full of forgotten pages
