I cried the last time 100 pages. This book has many roller coaster emotions and real life issues.

I have no thoughts. Another masterpiece, and a fall from grace for the good girl. And the not so bad boy, helping her through it. Sad this is all wrapped up now. 

“When I kiss you, you will believe every unspoken word the kiss will say. You’ll believe the I love you, the It was always you. You will see that I mean the You and I are forever. There will be no second-guessing.”

“You’re it, Bails. My beginning, my middle, and my end.”

“Bailey Followhill, I’m in love with you. I don’t remember a time before being in love with you. And I can’t see my life without you. It was you before I was even born. It will be you long after I die. You are my beginning, my middle, and…well, the death of me, probably.” We both laugh. “So please, please.” He puts his palms together. “Please help me write our happily-ever-after. Fuk knows you’re so much better with words than I am.”

I completely devoured this story! The love between Bailev was never a question. But the trial and tribulations they went through, oh boy!

I did not expect to completely fall in love with Lev. I love how LJ always mentions the guys and the banter between the kids. It always makes me laugh out loud.

This story was amazing it did have trigger warnings to substance abuse.

I hope Dean & Dixie get a story . I was completely heartbroken seeing Dean be lost without Rosie. But seriously crossing my fingers that Dean wakes up and realizes he wants a future with Lady D

GOD WHY DID DEAN NEED SOMEONE ELSE???????
This is not the romance I want to read in books.

edit 2:
DEAN AND DIXIE HAD A CHILD TOGETHER WTF NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
