The story was good. I absolutely loved Row; he loved Cal since they were teens (but hid that fact mostly), he tried to put her in the past after she went to college, and was fairly successful until she popped back into his life years later when she came back to their hometown. Row believes in her and tries to help her accomplish her goals. He keeps trying to hold out hope they might one day be together, even when they part ways again. But for him it is all or nothing, so he stays radio silent till Cal decides. Cal's trauma has left her believing she couldn't risk her heart or trust men. Cal is a bit much at times, but overall, she was okay. The side characters were enjoyable. I loved their texts with each other on that site; there was some really cute banter back and forth.
