A Girl Like Lilac by Victoria L. James

5.0

Okay so this book was a total gem that I found. I instantly fell in love.

You have a girl who is completely her own. Isn't like any other girl, lives life by her own rules, total stunner who everyone wants even though she isn't a typical popular kid.

Then you have the boy with issues not of his own that he strives to take care of. He is not to be trifled with. Nothing will stand in his way to protect those he loves. Even if it means trouble.

These two come together to make magic. Even when they aren't together. They thrive off each other. They are each other's opposite but they are their strongest together even if that means not physically together.

This book made me gush so bad. The MCs are just two amazing people who prove that once a seed that is love is planted it will grow no matter what gets in the way. It's just beautiful how it gets proven. And no this book isn't all butterflies and rainbows. It has its darkness and at one point made me want to skip pages to make sure I'd be okay to keep reading. But this book was just so good.
