This had a lot more emotional depth that I was expecting and the story sucked me in right from the beginning because I was so intrigued by what was keeping our two main characters apart. As more information is slowly revealed, I couldn't stop reading and was excited to see how everything was going to work out.
I really loved how Harlow and Conor's relationship grew over the course of the book and how they were able to actually get to know each other outside of their shared messy family situation. The dual POV was perfect, I love it when we get to see the guy fall hard and then keep falling, and the individual insight we get from each of them was great. While the third act break up was slightly predictable I liked how the book ended.
