I finished this book at 11:54 PM and immediately had to get up out of bed and write this review.  This book is that good.  I first saw Jessica Joyce recommend this book on her social media.  I went straight to NetGalley and requested it for myself.  I'm so glad I did.

Alexandra Kiley's writing is like a mix of B.K. Borison and Jessica Joyce.  Beautiful imagery, soft and tender relationships.  I couldn't get enough.  I adored Jack and loved the growth each of the MCs had.  Especially Brooke's growth, being able to forgive Jack and realize he was trying to protect her and wasn't out for himself.  

I didn't realize that this was an interconnected book.  I *really* appreciated that.  So many times, one reads an interconnected stand alone and you feel like you're on the outside of a friend group.  You don't understand the inside jokes and you realize the side characters are being spoken of intimately, but you barely know them.  It wasn't until 90% of the way through Scot and Bothered and Logan and Jack were discussing Addie that I realized there MIGHT be another book.  I am so grateful for that. It was a small blip and at no point did I feel like I was missing a deep part of the story.

The celebration of life had me in my feels and my eyes were profusely watering. So beautifully written.

I also really loved the ending and epilogue.  So often we're given the happily ever after of engagements and babies.  But what we got was even better, dreams that came true. 

I received a free e-ARC from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
