I don't think I'd read this book again. It had alot of cursing in the book. I also found that the storyline was a bit drawn out. There were many times during the beginning read, where I was like, "get to the point". I couldn't find the climax or the big issue. It just sounded like they were talking about the small details of a teenage romance. It got boring after awhile. I wanted something more. Something to make the story more interesting. Nonetheles, the relationship between
Sam and Jase
is sweet and the Garrett's family is also so nice and welcoming. The only thing I would say though is I wished the book talked a little more about when
Jase met Sam
. What did he like about her?
what exactly made him climb the trellis that day?
Basically, i wanted more backstory from the male love interest. I got a lot of info from the females perspective but I feel like the story would've been more complete if I got the guy's point of view in the whole meet cute/ first encounter.
