Wow, this book. Ginger Scott created these two teens that are going through it. She hooked me from the prologue and kept me turning to see how things turned out. She tackled a lot of tough topics in this book, but she does so in a way that you feel the pain both of these characters were experiencing as they went through it.
Kensi and Owen were complicated characters. In the beginning, their relationship was tumultuous, with Owen continuing to push Kensi away. She kept showing up for him, and proving that she won't leave or abandon him. They are both not trusting who they are, and questioning what they should do with their lives and passions. With that, they also push each other to believe they can have nice things and happiness.
This was an incredible book that is full of pain. It is not an easy read. Please check trigger warnings if you need them. If you want an emotional read, this one will be it. Though there is romance in this, it is not the only focus of the book, but a beautiful story does come from it.
