4 I am Brave Stars!
After the emotional turmoil this book put me through I was this close - to giving it 5 stars. That being said, I got to thinking, really thinking, about what this book deserves.
It was sweet no doubt about that. It was so unlike your typical college romance. Where the guy is hard and rough with issues. Esben was so freaking sweet and kind, and outgoing. At some point I thought for sure it was going to be all an act and he would end up disappointing us. Spoiler: He doesn’t. He is real, and honest and gentle. I loved him. Allison was your typical foster child brought up hard and rough. She built walls, and had a hard time letting people in. For the first 60% I was kinda like okay… awwww…that is sweet….I like that…okay move on… Almost like I just wanted the book to end because it was so steady it was boring. Then at about the last 25% of the book I was completely traumatized. Seriously this was me: (no joke I even was downing a bottle of my favorite red)
The entire time I could picture a movie being made. The sisters giving up their seat, the help from the motorcycle gang, the bachelorette limo. GAH the FEELS! My heart was literally breaking!
Steffi, I absolutely adored her! And Allison’s dad, he was one of my favorite characters! I don’t want to give anything away – and I am afraid if I delve into this book any further I just might. You have to read it!. It was written so beautifully well, you were able to feel the emotions just jump of the pages. Solid work Miss Park. Solid work!
