I’m late to the Kennedy Ryan party, but I get the hype!

This is a book that sat on my shelf for the longest time. It starts slow, so it took me a while (read: a year) to get into it. But once you’re in it—whew! It’s an emotional read with imperfect characters that somehow still win you over. I was rooting for Josiah and Yasmen the whole way through. Can’t wait to read the follow ups of this series.
