Such a good book!!!! I loved this book and the characters. Jasper is just *chef's kiss*. The way this man loves Sloane is beautiful, he would do anything and everything for her, the love is just palpable. Sloane has so much growth in this book that it just makes the reader love her a little more every chapter. I think that both characters had huge growth. Jasper with his traumatic and tragic past and brooding attitude; Sloane being so easily manipulated and she had no self confidence. And then the growth going to Jasper letting Sloane in and being able to let go of his brooding and grumpy personality because of her. And Sloane stepping into herself and her confidence and independence was beautiful to read. The SPICE! So good. I loved their connection, and their understanding and support for each other. They were just meant to be. Their relationship just had me in love and the more the book when on the better it got.

- "No, Sunny. I shouldn’t be scared. You’re the least scary thing in my life. You’re not just tattooed on my skin. You’re branded on my heart. Woven into the fiber of my being. The most constant and reassuring person in my life. When I close my eyes, I see you. When you’re away from me, I dream about you. When I need someone to lean on, you are always there for me. God. You’ve loved me when I haven’t even been able to love myself"
- "He's constantly trying to blend into the background, but even when he's hiding, I see him."
- “It’s like she and I are tethered together, but she’s the strong one. The pillar. And when troubled waters wash me downstream, all I have to do is follow the rope that ties me back to her. It always leads me back to her.”
- “But as usual, she doesn’t shy away from my darkness—after all, she’s my Sunny. She chases away the dark just by being herself.”
- “I mean, if y’all can overlook tail-babies, I’m not sure what could really keep you apart.”
- “I want him to be as connected to me as I am to him.”

This was an easy read and I enjoyed the book, but I didn’t enjoy it as much as the first 2 of the Chestnut Springs series. I also enjoyed how Elsie introduced and gave us a proper tease for the next book in the series.

Super cute, and I love the way that each chapter starts with a text conversation so you still get constant pop-ins from side characters that you love.

Jasper and Sloane my favsssss
I thought this book was so fun and I was really glad to finally be able to read about them. Hockey player x ballerina is such a good combo I'll never get over it. They were such soulmate material it was frustrating to read them just deny, deny, deny, for like 200 pages, but they were in denial so fucking hard it was kinda easy to overlook because they still acted like they were dating. I do wish we got more flashbacks of them as kids but that's because I'm a sentimental little bitch.
Overall, I really liked this book and it was a lot of fun to read.
