Purple Hearts by Tess Wakefield

Honestly, I can’t tell you why I’m so drawn to this story or these characters. I really think it was the actors in the Netflix movie. Their chemistry was so good! But yeah this book was good, but it wasn’t amazing. The fade to black spice was expected but still disappointing. Also Cassie’s relationship with Toby was frustrating and went on for way too long. Honestly I feel like Cassie and Toby had more character-developing scenes than Cassie and Luke. By the end, it felt like Cassie and Luke never really connected but just decided they loved each other. Very tell, not show.
