Quote from author; can't find a quote but I really love this particular quote from the book, "This is real. You and Me. This is everything".
Personal line of quick thoughts; it's a pretty interesting novel but not completely captivating. The descriptions are vivid, and the romance will leave you squirming in your seat BUT it seems to lack a certain allure that's quite indescribable because if I have a whole lot of books in my library. I'd really drop it & pick another novel.
He was my beginning and. and my never-ending.
Ellis
There’s a lot I’ve never told my best friend. The fact that I love him. That I miss him every day he’s gone. That, sometimes, I ache for him with a ferocity that leaves me breathless. Lucky Buchanan tore into my life as a boy, wild and daring, my opposite in every way. He drew me in, stole my heart without trying. He hears me, even though I rarely speak a word. But I always knew this place wouldn’t be enough for my free-spirited friend. I knew he wasn’t mine to keep. So why, when I finally try to get over him, does he sweep back into town? Why is he upset? Why is there tension between us for the first time in years? I never saw a future where Lucky could be mine. But now, unless I want to lose my friend, I might not have a choice but to tell the truth. My heart belongs to him. It has from the start. If only I knew how to hold onto a creature that’s meant to fly
