I don't know what it is. I can't describe it. But my love for Thomas Cresswell is never ending and bigger than any love I might have experienced before in my entire life. (And no, I'm not being dramatic) I was really convinced that there was no way I could fall harder for this guy and then this book came and damn, I was terribly wrong! There is now no part of my heart anymore that doesn't long for its own Thomas Cresswell to love and cherish and hold.

It was wonderful to be in Thomas' head and to read about his thought process and to read about what happened when Audrey Rose passed out. His head is a wonderful place to be in and every little piece of his personality that shone through made me smile even broader than I had done in probably months. He is the kind of man I want to marry. He is the kind of boyfriend I want to swipe me off my feet. He is the knight in shining armour who can save me, because I know he'll let me save him in return.

After reading this e-book there is not one inch of me that doubts Thomas' undying love for Audrey Rose, no matter her flaws, no matter her disability, no matter all the mistakes she made and all the times she hurt him. They know from each other that they're not perfect, that they have loads to work on and that their life will always be coming with new challenges and threats. And it's exactly knowing that they both want to work for it, that makes me ship them so incredibly hard.

And by reading about Audrey Rose through Thomas' eyes and by reading his admiration for her and the way she handles her disability, I felt a little more loved and seen too. It was that little bit of love for me and that part of me that so many people forget or wish away that made me love this book more than I can ever put into words.

ps. I want that custom cane!

A great addition to a series I love. Was really great to get a snippet of some of the events from Thomas' perspective.

This was a nice look at things through Thomas’s point of view. I feel more understanding of him now. I also really liked seeing how things played out at the end of the third book and the time leading up to the last book in this series. I would definitely read this because I think it very much so adds to the story. Highly recommend!

This was SUCH a refreshment from the bullshit I had to go through in the previous book. Maybe I am finally starting to like Cressworth again. One thing I noticed, Thomas' character grew so much from the first book, althought that isn't a negative thing like Audrey's character. Let me throw away my sleep and finally finish the last book.

i loved this so much. i love thomas so much, my favorite character, and being able to see things from his pov was so so so fun and refreshing.
he is such an honest character, wanting to be better not only for this girl that he loves, but because he truly wants to be a better person than who he was always told he was going to be.
he is my son and i will protect him with my life okAY
