About this deal

Okay, so looking at this cover and the description, you might think it's a simple, fluffy, contemporary romance.

Seeing them slowly learn to trust each other as they begin to fall in love is the most beautiful thing. Thankfully, there wasn't a huge amount of romance, which is what kept this baby from being docked down another star. It's depicted as Weston deciding to ignore medical advice and toss out his papers and instructions from his physician - NOT BECAUSE HE'S OVERWHELMED AND ANGRY OR GREIF STRICKEN OVER HIS ACCIDENT, but because he wants to stick it to the authority and just decides that he's not going to follow the rules because he doesn't want to.There was nothing substantial here, it was a poor attempt at a commercial cash-grab that fell flat on the romance, as well as Tessa's redemption. My other main complaint, and this coupled with the swearing is what docked a star plus off my rating. FTC Disclosure: I received a complimentary copy of this book for promotional purposes from Netgalley.

I was completely charmed by the story of Tessa and Weston, and loved bearing witness to their beautiful journey. As the mom of a middle grade reader, I will definitely purchase a copy of this (when it is available in book form) for my 12 year old to read. I was really nervous about how the author was gonna wrap everything up, but I’m proud to announce that the ending was ABSOLUTE PERFECTION AND EVERYTHING I NEEDED. The relationship depicted in this book is very problematic and the portrayal of disability and PTSD is also problematic.And every little adorable artwork has something significant to do with the story, and you appreciate it so much more after reading the book! I understand wanting to support an indie author, and I’m glad people enjoyed her book, but there were so many problematic elements in this book that I’m a little worried that so few people have mentioned them.
