5 stars to show her my support, too.
I'm so sad and so mad at the people who did this.
She's a writer, an artist.
She's free to write what she wants.
You read the book and you don't like it it's ok, you are free to express it.
But do this and just cancelled her?
I'm so freaking mad with cancel culture.

Okay sooo… it wasn’t 100% what I was hoping for, but I still loved it🫠. ngl, a few parts felt meh… like they didn’t really need to be there.
THANK GOD Samuel wasn’t a cheater 😭 I was literally ready to fight if he turned into another Luca ✋🏻.
After this book I officially HATE Remo and Serafina (esp her like girl pls disappear🖕🏻).
Samuel bb you deserved better 🥹 the pain he went thru? I was sobbing. He’s honestly so lucky to have Emma, she’s everything 🙂‍↕️.
Also can we PLEASE talk about Leonas!!! HELLO?? that man had like 8/9 lines and I’m already obsessed 😭 I need his book like rn. I already KNOW Dante & Valentina raised him right — a man who’ll worship his woman 🧎🏼‍♀️‍➡️.

I was a bit scared of this one, I was afraid that the conflict would be around Emma's condition and everything that comes with it but it wasn't! the conflicts in the story would've been real even if she wasn't in a wheelchair which I absolutely loved. 
in this book it's pretty clear that the author has found a formula that works for her and that we love and fall in love with, but she keeps surprising me with the twists and details that she manages to wove into the story making it stand out. 
I loved the conflict and the story and the plot! and it was explored in such an expert way! the characters were amazing and I loved the struggles and the inner monologues and everything! 
Cora Reilly is really, solidly, a go-to author, someone whose books I'll pick up just because she wrote it.

Loved the book and Cora as usual just wish the ending didn’t get rushed. I hope to hear more of the couple I absolutely loved Emma and her attitude towards Samuel! The banter and love ugh they are perfect. I want more and really enjoyed the part of staying with his parents and getting to know them better. Again I loved all of Cora’s books and this one even got me hating on Serefina on Samuel’s behalf. I have a twin and could understand the betrayal but having to let them go and live their own life sounds difficult when you’ve been with them all your life. Love the book and the couple can’t wait for Cora’s next book already!!!

  | That went in a direction I was not at all expecting! Loved Samuel, loved Emma, loved their connection and care they had for each other. The conflict, surprising. The way it was handled, beautiful. The rawness of the emotions, without being full of angst, wonderful. I thoroughly enjoyed these two, and am so glad that we got their story <3

fast-paced

I think the problems of the characters were a little bit big for the book, it felt like not enough time to really cover it all. There also were a couple of mistakes with names and places that felt avoidable. All in all cute book, but I also didn’t really feel the connection between the two characters.
