This book was so amazing. I loved every part of it. Thank you to Lucy for writing this masterpiece with such a deep meaning hidden that was only revealed at the very end.

The character of Naomi was written incredibly with the whole opposite twin thing. She felt the need to be perfect in order to balance Tina's horrible behaviour but thankfully she learnt how to be herself and make mistakes throughout the story which I think makes her a relatable and great character.

Knox was always shown as a grumpy character but we never really knew why until the very end. I thought it was nice to see him actually open up to Naomi because of how much he loved her. I really enjoyed watching his character development in the book.

The whole story and the side characters were really well-written and they all had their unique personalities, all of which were actually interesting. 

Knockemout as a town and a community has got me wanting to move to a small town and find myself a Knox.

I'd recommend this book to people who love slow-burn romances that are a grumpy x sunshine as well. The storyline is also great and if you pay attention you can connect small strings which makes reading much more fun for me personally.
