♡ This book. What can I say? It was absolutely incredible!!! I loved seeing how Declan and Evie got to grew closer and closer. Witness their growing love between each other. They are absolutely everything for the other and Declan is so devoted to her! He would do absolutely anything to make her happy!!! I already knew Evie's father would die (as it is in the blurb) but I wasn't expecting it to be this way, nor that the story would take that turn.

♡ Overall, the book as everything!!! I read it in one day and didn't see the time pass! I was so excited to read and read and read their story but when the end was dangerously close, I just wanted the book not to have a end. I didn't want to let Evie and Declan go, but I am so happy with how it ended. I felt like it was the perfect ending for these two! And NOW, I just want to read Clara and Dom's story. As well as every other books Shain Rose wrote. It might have been my first book from her, but is definitely not my last!
