Noah Riley is hands down the best book boyfriend ever written!! He is humble. He is kind. He is noble. He is sexy. He is genuine. He is literally everything. This book had all the emotions and then some. Nothing will ever compare!

This book put me through every emotion possible and I'm so glad it did. I wanted to throw it across the room for a while. Noah Riley has officially stolen my heart and I don't think I'm ever coming back! I don't know if I've ever laughed, smiled, been pissed, and bawled so much because of a book. My heart broke and was put back together so many times.

I will forever recommend this book!!!

4.5⭐ because why not, I cried. This book made me cry and let me tell you I'm not a cry-er.
Noah Riley is the fiction i want to be real.
Better Man by Taylor Swift is THE Perfect Song for the first half of this book and Begin Again by Taylor Swift for the second half of this book.

more thoughts to come omg
-

say you swear is my fav read of the year so far & noah riley has officially become my #1 book bf.

let’s get into it

characters -
okay so, at the beginning we are introduced to A LOT of people. i was not with it.
it was kinda hard to keep with everyone & i felt like it wasn’t explained properly, BUT i quickly got over it.
the characters and their relationships became one of my favorite things about this book. seeing them spend summer together, then go to college — the beach house, parties, football games, etc. like IT WAS ALL SO GOOD. i was living for it all.
ari is my girl, and i will defend her with my life!!!!!! i love her so so much. she deserves the world.
cam, mason, brady, chase were such good side characters & i wish we could get books about them. i LOVVVED BRADY. he was so funny & i just know his book would be so good.
NOAH. MF. RILEY!!!!!! that’s literally all i have to say. he IS THE BLUEPRINT. he is so kind and caring. i was actually screaming, crying, giggling, blushing - i’m not even ashamed tbh.

plot -
you want messy college with sports? this is messy college with sports. you have clubs, parties, alpha guys who are protective af.
the love triangle .. okay, i’ve seen some ppl say that don’t wanna read bc of the love triangle but i promise .. ITS NOT WHAT YOU’RE THINKING. i cant say much without spoiling but it’s not your typical love triangle and it’s SO WORTH IT.
i do not fw love triangles but THIS - this is a masterpiece.
going from a beach house to college was So fun. i literally loved the entire experience of this book from the beginning to the end.
plot twist, i genuinely cant even speak on that. i want everyone to go in blind pls it’s so worth it.
i do not cry when it comes to book usually but THIS HAD ME CRYING FR.

final thoughts -
this was absolute perfection & i want everyone to experience it. pls pls pls read this

I can't recommend this book enough. Say You Swear wrecked me to the point of tears and then picked up the pieces and put me back together. No book has ever made me feel emotions as strong as this book has, I never wanted the book to end. As my first book Meagan Brandy it quickly moved her into my top 4 favorite authors. 

I hated almost every second
