I really really loved Macy and Elliot’s overall story but check trigger warnings!

What kept this from being a 5 star rating for me was mostly that I think there was an opportunity for highlighting the importance of how Elliot was not okay and what he went through was SA. The way everything unfolded, the main focus was on Macy’s dad’s death. But like, what happened to Elliot was also not okay and it clearly messed him up afterwards and I think that it could have been handled a bit better.

“I haven't been living without him. I've been merely surviving.”

Second chance love stories are one of my favorite tropes. This story had it in aces. Not only did Macy and Elliot get that second chance, but their love story also survived so many obstacles. I found this to be a very fast read, one that was emotional and kept me craving the next page. Alternating timelines were easy to follow, and the authors really kept you wondering if these two would be able to heal their hearts in time to make it work together. I might not always get a Christina Lauren book read in a timely fashion, but I will always read them.

“His kiss is an aching prayer; devotion pours from him.”
