If power dynamic age gaps give you pause do not read this one. Lachlan and Dani have an intense connection. Through helping Dani heal her trauma they form a bond that can't be described. Somehow they kept their relationship from everyone else and when the rumors flew about their relationship I really don't know how the principal was just like alright cool. I enjoyed the growth Dani had through this. I think the trauma was handled appropriately and I did enjoy the story overall.Ā

This was such a good, emotional and hopeful story. The trauma is explored in such a real and raw way and Daniās journey felt so honest.
Iām very happy that despite this having a high school setting it didnāt fall into any of the annoying high school tropes of bullies and friend drama and lots of parties.
This is another story that will just stick with me for a long time and Iāll keep coming back to relive this beautiful relationship that while conflicting was so amazing and soul consuming.
