I was so excited to read this book, it was sooo nice to read about new characters that we haven’t heard much about in other books. I just want to hug Laiken and Boden. Their story is amazing, their past is so heartbreaking I was not ready for this emotional roller coaster. I think I cried through the whole book, I was crying when it was sad and when it was happy. I don't even know how to explain what I felt during reading this book.

I fell in love with Laiken immediately, she is such a caring and most beautiful person ever and you just admire her, even more, when you learn about her past and the way some people treat her now. It was so painful to see how people treated her and how hard it was for her to go through that every single day.

Boden is always so happy and will do everything to protect and understand Laiken even tho he is going through big and hard things on his own. I love how connected Boden and Laiken are and how they understand each other. And the epilogue is just soooo amazing.

I seriously loved how loved they were by their friends that we met in previous books, how connected all of them really are, and how much they care for each other. This friend group is seriously so amazing. 

Catherine just knows how to write small-town romances and how to keep you entertained, I read all of the books in one day because I just couldn't put them down. I can't can’t wait to finally read Shiloh’s story because I know it will break my heart but also put it back together.
