📖 I NEED PART TWO RIGHT NOW! Omg I just finished this and I don’t know how I will wait for more 😭😖 This book was so freaking good. I knew early on this was going to be a painful one, and oh it hurt so good. The past was so masterfully revealed from our two MCs perspectives in a now and then timeline. *Something* happened 7 years in the past that deeply affected both of them and tore them apart, but we don’t know the full truth of that event for QUITE a way into the book… and BRAVO! And woahhh I was really worried there was going to be more of *him* but noooooo, that cliffy 😭😖😫 

This is one of those books that if you have no triggers, going in blind leads to a wild ride, and I thoroughly enjoyed it! But it’s heavy, so if you do have triggers I would highly recommend checking out the content warnings for this book. 

🎧 This audio was absolutely incredible!! It was an intense, emotional journey that Sean and Shiloh delivered with such dynamic and passionate performances. I talk a lot about how much of a Sean fan I am, but this performance was really next level. He did a phenomenal job playing 17 year old Linc and a grown up Linc (7 years older), who has developed a fairly severe stutter and suffers from anxiety and panic attacks. This was my first time listening to Shiloh and she was amazing! She brought so much energy and emotion to her portrayal of Paige while keeping such a natural cadence that makes you feel like you’re listening to a real conversation. I can’t wait to listen to more of her work!
