A MUST, simply incredible, read!" -Katy Evans, New York Times bestselling author of Tycoon"Trust was an amazing journey that I could not put down! All of my favorite things: young love, a strong heroine, and an absolutely captivating hero, who's both sexy and bad in alllll the right ways. Loved it!" -Penelope Douglas, New York Times bestselling author of the Fall Away Series"The thing that will have readers flocking to this book isn't the sex, or the premise, or Kylie Scott's fine reputation.... [It's] the authenticity. Readers will pick up Trust because the characters seem like real teenagers-they're excitable and insecure and daggy and funny and immature and growing up." -Ellie Marney, author of Every Breath"This book has reminded me why YA is my favorite genre. Emotional, real and thought-provoking."-L.J. Shen, bestselling author of the Sinners of Saint Series
