Jace and Andi come fron two different worlds. Jace brought up in a stronger, loving family in the Bronx,raised on music from a young agen. Andi has lived a lavish life of wealth and privilege on the upper east side, they fall head over heels for each other but fate had a different plan. 

On paper, I should not have liked this story with its troops of love at first sight,  a bit of a love triangle and second chance romance have never been my personal favorite. However, this story was so well written  I could not put it down throughout,  I would think about it at work and rush back home  to pick it up. 

This book was such a roller-coaster of emotions, from a fun story abouts two teenagers falling in love, to a heartbreaking plot and well fleshed out characters with realistic development. On the other hand, there where a few lines of dialogue during emotional moments that, for me, broke the moment, but nothing that spoiled the existence.

I listened to this ad an audiobook and both narrators gave an excellent performance. Drawing me into this beautiful story and making me forget that I was listening to fiction.
Overall, I would recommend picking up this book on a rainy day, which I know I will .
