As a person with PTSD, I didn’t like how it seemed that their PTSD was magically cured by love, when that’s not how it works. Sometimes having support helps, but it comes in unexpected waves and storms, and this wasn’t portrayed in the best way.
Also, as a person who works with Deaf people daily as an interpreter, I think more research on the language could have made it more believable to me. There were a lot of phrases that were used that wouldn’t be used if people were signing because it’s not a translatable phrase. ASL is not just a signed version of English.
With more research and effort to try to make these parts more realistic could have easily made this a wonderful 5 ⭐️ read.

Also the way the author showcased archer’s anxiety, trauma and thoughts? OMG. It was done so well, i felt his every emotion and felt for him. My sweet archer. He deserves everything.
There were so many times I hugged my kindle because they’re so precious to me and even sobbed because of the emotions they made me feel 😭
What made me not give it 5 stars.. were all the sexual acts they were having. You could say it was part of them figuring out their relationship together and I didn’t really mind how it was described (bc honestly the author did such a good job).. it was just how much it was occurring? I thought it was alot in my opinion but their thoughts and emotions being described during the act(s) made up for it!
THEY BOTH HAVE MY HEART AND I JUST LOVE THEM SO MUCH. THEY ARE APART OF MY PERSONALITY NOW. My sweet babies. They deserve it all.

The story was so beautiful and heartbreaking at times with such a great message.
- “I realized people’s reactions had more to do with them, more to do with who they were, than anything about me.”
- “I had to fight for myself first”
- “Love was all about learning to speak a person’s language”
- “You brought the silence. The most beautiful sound I’d ever heard”
- “Archer Hale’s voice was one of the most beautiful things in the whole wide world.”
- “The loudest words are the ones we live”
