Wait for You by J. Lynn

After a traumatic experience at fourteen, Avery Montgomery decides to move across the country for college in order to forget everything.  She just wants to get through college without causing any attention.  Plans for this get thrown after Avery runs right into Cameron Hamilton on her first day of college.  Neighbors and classmates the two form a friendship.  Cam is attracted to her and asks her out every chance he gets, but Avery is reluctant to begin a relationship.  The two form a friendship and as Avery's heart begins to soften for Cam, her past starts to resurface she is afraid she'll lose everything again.

Wait for You is a wonderfully written New Adult book by J. Lynn (who also writes books under Jennifer Armentrout).  New Adult books are a fairly new genre that center on adults in the late teens and early twenties. The male love interests in the books tend to be bad boys with big hearts.  Cam was a reformed playboy who liked to bake cookies.  Every Sunday he would come over to Avery's apartment and make her breakfast. Where is this man in real life?

Although the reader could figure out what made Avery's high school experience so bad, it was still shocking to read about what happened afterwards.  She had to learn how trust people again and did have some time believing that Cam actually liked her.

If you are looking for a steamy romance then this is the book for you.  There is a sequel available on e-book for the library called Trust in Me that is Cam's side of the story.
