I really really enjoyed this book. The characters are just so fantastic. I was looking forward to Eli's book and it didn't disappoint. He is a fantastic character, and I loved Sage. Having all of the other side characters definitely added to the story to create this wonderful found family. It definitely has some moments where I was screaming at Elias or Sage, but mostly you just root for them. And definitely take a look at trigger warnings.

Quotes
You are a light in this world,
You are a light in this world,
don’t waste it on those who can’t see it.
Find the people who can.
-Dedication
“Elias, what is this?” Her voice wavers when she pulls my wrist toward her, dusting her fingers over the reddened skin where the fresh tattoo sits.
“It’s a plant,” I reply. The stems intertwine to curl around my wrist, their multiple branches covering the surface of my skin in a meticulous design. Her eyes dart to mine.
“What plant?”
“Sage.”
“Sage? Is ... is this why you disappeared earlier?” Her voice shakes. “Your mom said you were helping with groceries.”
“I was,” I confirm. Her disbelief deepens. “And a tattoo just happened to be on the grocery list?” she deadpans. “Why?”
“You know why.” She shakes her head.
“No, actually I don’t.”
“Because I love you, and I want you with me all the time, even on the days you can’t be.”
-Sage and Elias (Ch. 41)
“You got it for me?”
I give her a blank look. “I don’t know anyone else named Sage.”
She laughs. “You could just really love the herb.”
“No, I think I really love the girl.”

This was a really fun read for me. I liked so many characters aside from the MC’s, the growing they both had to do, and their chemistry was just so good.

I tried my best. It’s just so bad?? Writing style is not to my taste, and chemistry between the two leads is nonexistent. Maybe this is just a mood reader not being in the right mood…but life is too short for bad books.
