I absolutely loved this book. Gemma and Ryker were childhood friends, however, things changed as they got older and they ended up growing apart. Gemma was definitely not happy to see Ryker or to have him back in her life.

Seeing how much these two had to overcome different obstacles in their life and their relationship was eye opening. Gemma may be one of my favorite heroines I’ve ever read because she is different, she feels real. She is strong, she’s a great role model. She doesn’t let the fact that she is in a wheel chair hold her back from anything in life. Ryker took some warming up to, I wanted to dislike him because of how he treated Gemma in the past, but he made up for that. He showed her that he wasn’t that person anymore.

Only the Negatives is a beautiful love story that will break your heart but also put it back together. It’s a story about growing up, never giving up and being the best version of yourself.

While it can be read as a standalone, it’s also a great series. Elle Thorpe is definitely an author you will want to keep your eye in. Her stories are fantastic and full of detail. You truly feel like you are in the scene.
