The depth of feeling in this book stuck me in a way lots of my 5* reads don’t. One of the author’s love for the setting really bled through the pages. The way they captured teenage infatuation and the early, gentle stages of young relationships was brilliant. Grief was a constant companion throughout and I was desperate to find out more about Duncan and the first fallout of Macy and Elliot’s relationship.

A beautiful love story! I am obsessed with Elliot! I love how mature he was at a young age. He was so well spoken throughout the book, especially about his feelings. We need more men like Elliot! I was so happy Macy and Elliot resolved everything and started a life together. I wish we got more of their life after they moved in with each other, or even a second book!

The spicy scenes with them as teenagers was just a bit odd and felt uncomfortable, especially when Macy was 3/4 months away from turning 18. Like how hard would it be to just wait a little bit in the storyline? Ruined the book for me personally, also just not a fan of main characters being separated for a long time- especially 11 years :(

I love anything by Christina Lauren and this was no exception. 
The ‘now’ and ‘then’ alternate chapters kept me page turning; I wanted to delve deeper into their story, to learn more about the characters and what had led them to the 11 year gap in their friendship. The ending didn’t disappoint.
