“Me and Celine, we’ve been best friends. We’ve been enemies. We’ve even been a secret. But right now? We’re everything. Anything. Whatever we want.”

This book made me feel all the warm fuzzies! Talia Hibbert can do no wrong. I loved both of the main characters and their chemistry was so palpable to me. I loved Celine’s grumpiness and her attitude and her ability to be wholeheartedly herself. I adored Bradley’s golden-boy personality and the way he cares for others. The side characters and friendships were adorable. The dialogue was great, and the banter, OH THE BANTER!, was *chefs kiss*. Sometimes I have a hard time with YA because it makes me cringe (granted, I’m not the target audience) but this book just made me want to be young and in love and I think that’s a beautiful thing.
