"I won't tell anyone, Echo. I promise." Noah tucked a curl behind my ear. It had been so long since someone touched me like he did. Why did it have to be Noah Hutchins? His dark brown eyes shifted to my covered arms. "You didn't do that-did you? It was done to you?" No one ever asked that question. They stared. They whispered. They laughed. But they never asked.

So wrong for each other...and yet so right.

No one knows what happened the night Echo Emerson went from popular girl with jock boyfriend to gossiped-about outsider with "freaky" scars on her arms. Even Echo can't remember the whole truth of that horrible night. All she knows is that she wants everything to go back to normal. But when Noah Hutchins, the smoking-hot, girl-using loner in the black leather jacket, explodes into her life with his tough attitude and surprising understanding, Echo's world shifts in ways she could never have imagined. They should have nothing in common. And with the secrets they both keep, being together is pretty much impossible.Yet the crazy attraction between them refuses to go away. And Echo has to ask herself just how far they can push the limits and what she'll risk for the one guy who might teach her how to love again

I've waited forever for this book to come out! And now I've finally read it and it was as good as I anticipated! God what a great book and what an emotional rollecoaster! You get to read the story of Noah and Echo and from both of their point of view, which I really really liked! They are both inspirtational characters who learned how to work on themselves, but also how to trust each other. They were both smart and cautious about many things. You read about how they are dealing with multiple problems of their own and problems of each other. It was great to read how much they developed troughout the book! They story was also great, I really enjoyed the read! Echo has been through an extremely distressing life altering situation and troughout the story you've get to learn more about Echo's memory of the event. Her story is really heartbreaking and I had to pink away a few tears.  Noah wants only to take care of his brothers and his story is totally different than Echo's. Yet it's equally beautiful to read about. His story is also heartbreaking and frustrating and soon I found myself relating with Noah. The love story in Pushing the Limits is just right! It's not right there, but slowly building. This is true love in all it's beautifull and ugly form. It's love with sacrifices and comprimises, but also with passion and heat. All I want to say is that you should definitely read this book!
