"Pieces of Olivia is touching, witty, endearing, complicated and full of all the things a reader wants in a great New Adult read."* Olivia Warren used to be a normal girl with a bright future. But on one fated night, everything changed.   Hiding the scars of her past up her sleeves, Olivia transfers her enrollment from Columbia University to The College of Charleston, determined to pursue her own dreams for the first time in her life.   She intends to allow herself a bit of alone time to heal... that is, until she meets Preston.   Preston is best friends with her roommate, completely hot, and off-limits.  But the chemistry between them is instantaneous--and as the pair begins to spend more time with one another, their feelings for each other build into something undeniable, something powerful enough to heal Olivia's deepest scars.   Olivia tries to put her own past behind her and trust Preston, but she discovers that his past might be more present than she ever bargained for...  "Olivia and Preston are going to tug on readers' heartstrings in all the best ways."--*Jay Crownover, New York Times Bestselling Author "Pieces of Olivia is both heartbreaking and hopeful, with the perfect amount of angst and sexiness. A must read!"--Monica Murphy, New York Times Bestselling Author "This book is a perfect example of why I continue to come back to the New Adult genre. It has complex characters and a story that wouldn't allow me to put the book down until I finished." - Fiction Fare "Pick this book up for a deeply emotional read."--Night Owl Romance (Top Pick) "If you want to be floored by a book and become so involved in the story that the outside world melts away; read Pieces of Olivia. It is one emotional disaster and I loved it with all of my broken heart. So read it."--Bookraptured Melissa West lives in a suburb of Atlanta, GA with her husband and daughters. She holds a B.A. in Communication Studies and a M.S. in Graphic Communication, both from Clemson University. … (altro)

Preston was great I loved Preston! Olivia was okay for me but rather self involved , understandably so, but still it got in the way of me 100% loving the book. Fabulous sexual tension, great story line and endearing characters I cannot wait to read more by this author. ( )

Review
I've been a big fan of West's YA sci-fi series, and I was stoked when I heard that she was writing New Adult. I'm a sucker for some college drama. We definitely get that in Pieces of Olivia.

Olivia is a character that constantly tries to hide herself. She's gone through a horrible event, and bears scars from it. She's happy she's made friends at Charleston, but still doesn't want to let them completely in. There were so many times where I wanted to just hold on to her so that she could cry her troubles away.

I love the connection between Olivia and Preston. He seems to be the only one that she feels like she can be herself around. He's funny and charming, but has secrets of his own. Ones that are heartbreaking but also ones that can bite him in the butt if found out.

I loved everything about this book. And I can't wait for Miles of Kara. Even though she's Olivia's friend, you know she has her own dark secrets.

WOW...this book blew me away! From the very first page the story pulled me in and I had to know more about the past events, the future, the characters. This is a fantastic story of a young woman's journey through her first year of college while dealing with the psychological fallout of a recent horrific event in her life. Along the way she finds new friendships, love, and hope. A great story that I recommend to everyone. ( )

This is one of those books that blew me away. I didn't just love it, I think it's spectacular.

I have been lucky and been able to review many really good book. But since I get so many review copies, I rarely buy anymore. As soon as I finished this, I pre-ordered the second book on amazon.

Putting my money where my mouth is, is really the highest praise I can give a book.

Excellent story, really great writing, an emotional roller coaster, and you can't help but empathize with Olivia. This book touched me in a way that I haven't been touched by a book in a long time.
