A review by michelle_lynn
Tempest by Alison Rhymes
4.5
Overall: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️½
Couple: Gavin & Odette
❋❋❋❋❋❋❋❋❋❋
❛Youth makes us all a little stupid in love, I suppose. Maybe no eighteen-year-old should count on love to last and all I’ve done is set myself up for disaster and heartbreak. But age doesn’t make my feelings less valid.❜

This is so not your cookie cutter romance book, and I absolutely ate it up. There are not enough good things I can say about this story. Alison's writing was everything, even when she was wrecking me with her words she wrote them beautifully. Maybe it's age or lived experiences, but I felt everything all involved went through in this book. Young love no matter the time leaves its mark, some things you carry, and it shaped how Odette lived her life. My heart was so heavy for her, going through the highs, the lows, the heartbreak, and acceptance of herself. Watching Gavin and Odette reconnect had me all in my feelings, mostly mixed feelings. Their connection and chemistry was undeniable, I kept going back and forth on wanting them together or not. Mostly because of Gavin for me, he was great and was dealt a lose lose situation, but I just needed it to be more from him. In the end I was so very happy for them and all the emotions I went through.
