I really loved this book. Ali once again killed it. Scarlett was a really relatable character for me. I love the way Ali is able to capture the impact anxiety can have on our lives. I loved getting to see Scarlett grow, learn to trust herself and others, and heal from her past traumas. Lukas was an absolute delight. Their romance bloomed beautifully as they explored their sexual interests, love of science, and love of water together. I thought Ali did a brilliant job capturing the emotional intimacy and trust in each of their sexual encounters.
