It's time for Kellan Kyle, the rockstar who captured our hearts in Thoughtless, to tell his side of the story.
The only place Kellan has ever felt at home is on stage. Gripping his guitar in a darkened bar, he can forget his painful past. These days his life revolves around his music and his band mates, and that's the way he likes it. And then one woman changes everything . . .
Kiera is the kind of girl Kellan has no business wanting - she's smart, sweet, and dating his best friend. Certain he could never be worthy of her love, he hides his growing attraction . . .
until Kiera's own tormented heart hints that his feelings might not be one-sided. Now, no matter the consequences, Kellan is sure of one thing: he won't let Kiera go without a fight.

Literary Lust Review
To say I was excited when Thoughtful hit my kindle is an understatement. I am totally in love with that guy!
Kellan was one of my first book loves and I loved the way thoughtless changed my view of everything I believed in. The way S.C wrote turned something ugly into something beautiful. Before thoughtless I wouldn't even entertain books with cheating but against all odds by the end (well about 20% in) I was head cheerleader for Kellan and Kiera.
What I wasn't prepared for with thoughtful was the fact I would dislike Kellan a little and the cheating was way more blatant cheating of course this comes from the fact we don't have Kiera's indecisive thoughts to balance out the act. On the other hand I loved his need for Kiera and it was great to see what was going on in his mind especially at pivotal points.
I'd read teasers and felt the angst flowing from them but none of them prepared me for the gut wrenching agony Kellan was going through. My poor heart couldn't take it anymore I just wanted to hug him tight (or better still take him to an espresso stand) how could Kiera do this to him?
As well as being ridiculously excited when S.C announced this book, as Kellan is one of my go to guys I was also a little nervous as I struggle a little with books that are repeats. I think it's down to the fact I know where the story is going therefore you lose the ability to be shocked/happy at the end. S.C threw all I thought about repeat stories out of the window and waved as it flew away, she really did Kellan's story justice and then some.
It is a really long book but it didn't feel too much of a rehash and there was enough of Kellan's life before Kiera to give it a story of its own.
Get your tissues ready! S.C has definitely proved there's always two sides to every story.
