These 2 have my complete attention and I love the dual perspective and the characters development. Off to read book 2!
I rated this a 4 star due to the epic slow burn that I can't tell if I love or if it is driving me insane. Possible 5 star if that is your thing :)

Rating : ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is the first book in this duology/series and I give it infinity stars. It is a fairly long book, but it had me in a chokehold after the first 50-70 pages until the very end. I don't want to say to much regarding the plot so as not to give spoilers, but it is medium to fast paced and has you on the edge of your seat until the very end. And the emotions this book provokes...anxiety, worry, heartbreak, hopefulness, young love... It runs the gambit! I even teared up during this read, and I never cry in books. Johnny and Shannon are hands down one of my new favorite book couples. What these two go through and endure...I have no words. They are simply everything.
***Please note there is mature content and triggers in this book, and overall this is a pretty emotionally heavy book.
