"Sometimes the things that make no sense can lead us to our greatest discoveries."
"Love has always fascinated me. All my life I've spent hours obsessing over it through the pages of books. The adventure, the magic, the risk, the beauty of it, never daring to hope that it might one day be something I could have myself. True, real love."
"Jealousy is an insidious thing. It can sneak up on you at any time, anywhere. And many times, you thought you were just fine. Unaffected and unaware of it creeping, slithering, and festering somewhere inside you until your actions speak louder than your own knowledge of yourself."

When we were introduced to Jared, I found myself utterly appalled at my need to know that he was ok and to find out what happened to him in the time he was missing from FS. It amazes me how Ella is able to make us care for all characters with deep meaning, even the ones who straddle grey area morals in an attempt to give them the chance to redeem themselves. Jared was an absolute delight to follow as the hero of his story, and Vera went from 100% unlikable, to a new favorite character of mine. The backstories are extremely well developed for a book that was less than 300 pages, and the ending left me with no choice but to pick up [b:Corrode|36491811|Corrode (Surface Rust, #2)|Ella Fields|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1509203199l/36491811._SY75_.jpg|57608232] immediately to sink my teeth into Felix and Maggie's story. Highly recommended if you're looking for a lighter romance with all the feels.
