📌“Emerson Chadwick might be a little bit broken, but she was strong and fierce in every way.”

📌“I don’t know what I did to deserve you, but I’d sure like to keep you, beautiful.”

📌“It’s funny how life worked. Something could feel so big, until the next big thing happened, and then you didn’t remember the last thing.”

Magnolia Falls has been home for a while. Home since Romeo and through (almost - I can’t wait for Hayes!) all members of this group of friends. And coming back with Nash fell just like that. Coming home. And my beating heart couldn’t have been happier. 

Our beefcake stole the show. As he always does. But this time he did so while holding his pops hand and his girl Sunny’s. Because he knew. When he nicknamed her sunny he knew how much sunshine she would shine onto his and his dad’s life. How those rays would go through the cracks and straight to where they needed to go. 

Nash and Emerson were electric. Unstoppable. Undeniable. I felt every bit of that chemistry and every bit of their friendship. Because that’s what made it so special. They shared a bond that, sure, had lots of fire but also a lot of understanding and shared love. 

I wish you could see the biggest smile I had on my face while reading this. I wish I could show you how my heart hurt for Emerson but also how much it blossomed with her strength and trust. 

Laura, thank you for Magnolia Falls. 

And thank you for this ARC. 

P.S.: the new series is going to be soooo good 😱
