True (True Believers #1) 
Tyler knows he’s not good enough for Rory. She’s smart, doctor smart, while he’s barely scraping by at his EMT program, hoping to pull his younger brothers out of the hell their druggy mother has left them in. But he can’t resist taking up her roommates on an opportunity to get to know her better. There’s something about her honesty that keeps him coming back when he knows he shouldn’t…
Torn between common sense and desire, the two find themselves caught up in a passionate relationship. But when Tyler’s broken family threatens to destroy his future, and hers, Rory will need to decide whether to cut her ties to his risky world or follow her heart, no matter what the cost…
This was my second new adult book and I have to say it's been my favorite so far. I really enjoyed Rory's character as well as Tyler. They were both very likable. I enjoyed reading Rory's thoughts and how she handled things with maturity. Who doesn't love a bad boy either? Tyler was an extremely sweet one at that! He never registered in my mind as the bad boy but I love how he was portrayed. The only thing I did not enjoy about this book was the ending. I like the ending but it felt rushed. I

This was an all right book for me. There were parts that I really liked and parts that I didnt care so much for. True follows the story of Rory, nerdy college girl virgin who gets set up by her roommates with bad boy Tyler. By set up, I mean her roommates pay Tyler to take her virginity. In their delusional minds, they think this will boost Rorys confidence and give her the courage she needs to put herself out there. Since this is a contemporary romance, of course Rory and Tyler fall in love.
really enjoyed reading this one.... ending was a bit rushed for my tastes though. looking forward to the next book!
True ended up being more of a deep story that the blurb implies. I have to admit the first paragraph of the description had me cringing, but reading on I thought this story might have potential. Seeing Jennys excellent review @Supernatural Snark spurned me on to pick this up sooner rather than later, and Im so happy I did! Rory is a smart, logical, socially inept girl used to keeping people at arms length. Shes more comfortable with a book than with a living, breathing person. Thats until she

Pre-read comments: I often ask myself what am I getting myself into, and often the answer is I don't know, but I'm doing it anyway.I'll admit I have exceedingly low expectations for this book.Post-read comments: I think I still had some hope that this would be different than the usual cliched New Adult book, but alas, it wasn't to be. Same script, different cast, full of stupid. The thing that surprises me is that I've heard Erin McCarthy's a well known author in her respective genre.
