“when it came to emmy, i was playing with fire, but i would happily walk into the flames for her. and i’d have a smile on my face the whole damn time.”

i read this book in less than a day and ate up every single second of it.

emmy and luke were so sweet together, and i loved their connection. i especially loved how luke stepped up and took care of her when she came back to meadowlark, even though emmy’s brother asked him to look after her, he looked after her in his own way (iykyk).

the pieces we saw of luke’s life and his mom added to the story rather than took away from it, which helped me connect to his character more. and emmy, the pieces we saw of her struggles with adhd made so much sense, and i think that was a very important aspect of this book, especially when it came to the things she loved (riding).

although this is a popular book, i would absolutely say it lived up to the hype! i really enjoyed it, and i can’t wait to read the next one!
