I find this book hard to rate because it may not be the absolute best of the best, but the care and love I have for both Eden and Josh usurps every flaw this book has. This was a book I never thought I would get but have hoped for since the day I finished the way I used to be however many years ago. Eden and Josh have genuinely stayed with me all these years. I have found myself thinking of them often. I would wish and hope for not only a happy ending for them, but for justice and peace for them both individually. I loved their growth and strength in this book, especially my girl Eden. I cannot thank Amber Smith enough for bringing these characters back, and I will continue to hold them close to my heart. 

Also, when I found out we would also be getting Josh’s pov in this book I screamed. So so so important to me.
