Maybe I listened to this audiobook on too fast of a speed (I only had a day left on my library loan when I started lol), but I found it hard to distinguish between the characters in dialogue, especially during the texting scenes. This probably wouldn't have been an issue if I'd read the physical book, but yeah I kept having to rewind because I couldn't tell who was saying what. Aside from that, the book was fine. Sharpe has a literary diction that adds a bit of flavor to a very conventional genre.

Wow, this book is so good!! Emotional and heavy at times, but it is so well done. Penny and Tate have both been through so much. The way they kept coming back to one another, the way Tate continued to find Penny, was so beautiful. 
There were so many real and raw emotions throughout this book. (Grab a tissue or two!) I wanted to reach out and hug both girls and I loved how it all wrapped up.
