Title: CAN YOU HEAR IT
Author: Casey Diam
Genre: Sports Romance
About Can You Hear It:
Secrets.Deceptions.
Tragedies.
Those were the root of all evil. One of those became the root of mine the day I lost the love of my life. My best friend. My lover.
Everyone disregarded it, saying, “Let’s face it, Averie, you have the rest of your life ahead of you.” They were wrong. James Lawrence was my ever after . . . until Ashton.
If only he didn’t come bearing his own brand of evil.
A secret.
The reason he wanted me to stay away.
I should have listened, and he should have tried harder, but both of us failed. And if we hadn’t, if he had told me when we first met, would it have altered the moment I realized that I was falling for him?
The slight variation in the air. The hitch in my breath. The lightness in my chest.
Impossible to know; I’d already fallen.
I was already ruined.
***A standalone sports romance that takes place in senior year high school. Due to explicit content, this book is suitable for 17+

What I thought about Can You Hear It
Averie suffers a huge loss when she loses her boyfriend James. Now at a new school, she's still medicating her loss with alcohol and drugs. When she meets Ashton, he gives her hope that life can be good again, but he's also keeping a huge secret that can crush Averie again.
I did like Averie and Ashton's friendship-to-romance story and how Ashton's interest in Averie had some history. I also liked the realistic portrayal of high school including the nasty stuff that the jealous girls engaged in and the partying. It really bugs me to read a YA that ignores these realities, and Can You Hear It did not do that, nor did it glorify the drug and alcohol use.
There's a nice cast of supporting characters from Averie's new school that I found interesting, especially Ryker and Brody. The adults were peripheral and uninteresting, excluding Ashton's dad who has an intriguing backstory.
I did have some minor issues with this story that prevented me giving it a higher rating. I found the first half to be a bit on the slow side and there were some aspects of the story pertaining to Ashton's behavior that needed more explanation but were never really expanded upon. But in spite of this, Can You Hear It did capture my interest with Ashton and Averie's story.
An ARC was provided for review.
