One of my all-time favorite things happened with this book. I went into this one completely blind. I picked it up randomly, and I was obsessed. I loved the twists and turns. I loved the chaos. It was just always something going on. I love when a random book is fantastic and a 5-star read. Plus, I loved the cover! The new illustrated covers for this series are freaking adorable!
Anyways in this book, we are focused on Grayson and Jessica. They were high school sweethearts, but Jess left their small town shortly after graduating. She didn't want to stay in this town and felt like she was holding him back because he was supposed to grow up and take over his family's hotel empire. Plus, his parents looked down on this relationship because Jess was from the wrong side of town. Once she left, she swore she would never return, but after a tragic plane crash, she was forced to return home to heal. It was crazy seeing these two reunite and see everything they go through, and we learn a lot about what really happened between them all those years ago. The only thing I wish was a little different was that I wish Yvonne were in the book! Yvonne's the mom, and she gave up all her rights to Gray as soon as she delivered Amelia, and we never even see her. Plus, as much as the siblings talk about how horrible their father is, he only appears at the end, and even though he dropped some major bombs, I wish we had more of it!

I found pretty much every single side character to be so annoying like half of the time. If your brother is upset and crying and driving toward his gf almost dying then you do not need to call and tell him some completely irrelevant shit and he does not need to recount every step that happened to get there.
Overall I loved that the characters were actually (mostly) mature people. 2 people who loved each other and were broken up and still have feelings of love and hurt between them and they can still be nice to each other and be friends.
The proposal 10/5 honestly the best thing I've read this year
