This is a short and sweet young adult read about loss, grief, faith and love. I think it sends a beautiful message to teenagers about how to deal with tough scenarios like bullying, being honest, sex and faith. I liked the plot, but I wish we would have gotten glimpses of what Ashley's life was like before her dad died. I wanted to mourn her father with her, but I couldn't because I never got to know him. I think the book would have had more of an emotional impact on me if I could have felt that loss deeper. (view spoiler)[The end had a rushed feeling towards it and I thought there was going to be more of a dramatic climax involving Charlotte, Colt and Mandy. I knew from the beginning that Ashley was going to end up with Jordan, so it was a bit predictable. I would have been very disappointed if Ashley didn't end up with Jordan though, so thank you Leigh Talbert Moore for giving us readers what we wanted! (hide spoiler)]
