Before I dive into the review, can we just appreciate how cute that quote is and how amazing Jed is?! He is by far, the best love interest in the series as of this moment!

This book wasnโ€™t as light as the first two and yet I adored it more than the others. What happens when you wake up from a coma but struggle to remember what happened? Skylar De Beer did exactly that and my heart broke for her. She wasnโ€™t the perfect person and I really disliked her character when I first met her, she was rude and obnoxious, and the way she treated others who didnโ€™t have as much money as her was disgusting.

At first I found Jed a little bit weird, he was definitely a character who came across awkward a bit OTT, but he was also full of advice that logical and realistic. He had a heart of gold from the start and that only seemed increase as you got to know him more.

Something I found incredibly sweet was the way he would do things for Skylar while she was asleep, and how kind she was to him as he got to know her. The character development was fantastic for Skylar within this story and I love the person she turned out to be.

The plot twist threw me as I thought I knew who had done what but obviously, I got it wrong. I was furious when I read the plot twist, but also liked how realistic it was as the plot twist that happened to Skylar does happen nowadays.

Jordan Ford does a wonderful job and highlighting serious issues that has a lot of stigma surrounding them and she shows women that itโ€™s okay to dress how they want and be who they are.

Finally, the romance was adorable and theyโ€™re my favourite couple and I hope I still get to see them in the next couple of books!
