“From the very start, you had all the power. From the very start, I was in the palm of your hand.”
“I’m afraid of the unpredictability of existing.”
This officially jumped up as one of my favorite by Ali!
Used to be a swimmer so reading a story with diving and swimming was really cool, and even better that it kept a good balance of STEM. New genre unlocked: Sports-Stem Romance?
Lukas has been added to the new book BF list. Found Scarlett very relatable (“Mostly, I'm afraid of attempting something and not being perfect at it” - SAME girl.. SAMe).. and enjoyed watching Scarlett's growth inside and out of the pool, but I do have a little bit of a grip with a few situations between her and Penn. I would really consider this way more of a BDSM light which is totally okay, enjoyable and I think honestly fit the story of college kids exploring their own kinks/wants. I did go into this thinking there would have been a bit more, but all in all I enjoyed it.
