This book had so much that I didn't expect, yet it had everything I wanted. It was a roller coaster ride that had my heart beating page after page. Sometimes it beat in my chest, filled with joy as I swooned and sighed...sometimes it beat in my throat, filled with anxiety and unease. My heart was never prepared for what would happen on the very next page but it always understood that it would be important and epic. 
 My love for these characters grew stronger as this second half of their story unraveled, and I absolutely adored how Joss, Wes, and the rest of their family and friends grew fiercer and more determined to have the best possible lives and relationships. The twists and turns they faced were intense but their spirits were unbreakable. This story pulled at my emotions again and again. I loved watching Joss and Wes's story but I also adored the secondary characters. I cheered as Joss's father battled his addiction and embraced his need to be a better man for his daughter, and, once again, my heart went out to Kyle. This sweet, funny, incredibly strong and loyal friend was the solid rock that Joss needed to see her through. I'm hoping against hope that Ms. Scott will give us more Kyle in the future...and I'm not above begging! 
 This story celebrated the importance of accepting our differences, it highlighted the significance of family and friends, and it proved that fighting for what you want may not be easy, but it's always worth it. It showed me that life can be filled with struggle and beauty and magic...all at the same time. My heart adored every part of this adventure and my mind hasn't stopped thinking about how much I didn't want it to end. This is a story I won't soon forget...these characters are a part of me now and I know I'll go back and visit their world again and again! Ms. Scott, your words have once again touched me and your characters are, as always, endearing and special. Thank you for giving us this very special story.
