Ari is heading to college with her twin brother and 3 best friend. She has been in love with one of her friends forever, but her over protective brother has made it clear that she is off limits.  Before heading to their first year in college, the five of them plan to spend a month at their cottage. Things happen that will forever change the dynamic of the group. 

This book rocked me. It was a rollercoaster. It broke me then put me back together again. 

I loved the dynamic of this group. You could tell how much they loved and supported one another. 

Ari loves someone who didn't love her back and he hurt her. Bad. Watching her learn to trust, open herself up, and be vulnerable again was so relatable. Later in the book, what she went through was soul shattering and watching her put the pieces back together was heartbreaking.  She grows so much within this book, she becomes so strong and fights so hard to get back to herself. 

Noah is everything. He is patient, understanding, empathic, and so in love with Ari. He would literally do anything for her. Though he fell for her fast, he knew she needed time to heal and he gave her that while helping her pick up the pieces. My heart absolutely broke for him. He stayed by Ari even when it absolutely broke him and tore him apart. 

Chase is selfish. He treated Ari like crap and threw her away.  I hate the way he behaved and the way he treated Ari. She loved him and he just used her. Only after she was finally happy and moving did he realize he wanted her. He was a jealous ass.

I LOVED Ari and Cams relationship. Their friendship was so strong and Cam was such a rock for Ari. You could feel how much they loved each other and how much they supported each other. 

I really enjoyed Brady and Mason as well. They were protective (a little too much sometimes) and supportive and they always had Cam and Ari's backs.  I would love to read about their stories! 

This is a must read!
