I LOVED this book!! Yes some scenes were a little cringey but I would rather have a book be cringey than boring. I really liked the "small town" vibe and all the characters grew on me. The ending was beautiful but just a tad predictable. 
Even though this book is almost 600 pages long, I was entertained the whole time so that's why I'm giving it 5 stars.

1.0

Knox was a walking red flag from start to finish and I simply could not excuse his behaviors the way he felt so entitled to be excused from, nor could I romanticize his toxic traits that never quit being apparent. And the ending gave a messy message IMO.
