Astrid and Jordan need each other in completely different but complementary ways. They help each other heal through some extreme trauma, and also learn many new things about themselves.
This story had the perfect amount of banter mixed with thoughtful dialog and humor. Ashley Herring Blake is quickly solidifying herself as a must-read for me.
