A slow burn romance that most readers will be able to relate to; loving someone but missing your opportunity to be with them. The book centres on Autumn and Finn through their schooling years, which gives a YA genre feel, but without the writing style to match. The book will have you laughing, longing and crying. It’s worth the read if you enjoy a romance.
*Spoiler*
I do feel the ending was rushed and had we of had more time getting to know Autumn and Finn within a romantic relationship together the ending would have held greater emotional pull.

Okay OUCH! This book was so painful and yet so beautiful, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to look at a red sports car the same way again, the writing is beautiful and the end is so tragic but I wouldn’t have it any other way, instant five star and a book I could read time and time again and never get bored

I don’t know how to feel right now. Just omg this book! Then ending! I can’t just why did that have to happen. I’m not okay after that. This book was so good, and the characters are all very relatable and awesome. The writing is amazing and that ending was insane!

This books was heart wrenching. You already know how the book ends by it’s first chapter, which is intentional. You fall in love with the characters, despite knowing the sad ending.
