4.5 stars.
Awesome story, but the pain is so raw that sometimes it becomes hard to read.
I loved Jonas and Brennan and how their friendship and romance grew ever so slowly. I loved them as young people, both broken and going through dramatic experiences. Their struggles feel real.
Jonas is a fascinating young wounded hero: with his frown and dark, feathery hair sticking up in the back, the sarcasm and the pain of adjusting to a new me, missing a limb, and a new life.
Brennan’s anxiety is really hard to read sometimes. But it feels poignantly authentic and it gave me a lot to think about.
There are some very sweet moments between the couple, perhaps I would like to know how their romantic relationship develops.
Great secondary characters, too.

Thanks to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This book features Jonas and Brennan. Two characters that are suffering and help each other learn to live again. Jonas lost his leg and Brennan has an anxiety disorder. This book was really cute and I got through it quickly. Certain parts were tough for me to read given the serious subject matter but overall this was a good young adult read. The romance took a backseat to the growth of the characters and it was nice to see them overcome their struggles. I would recommend this book and look forward to reading more from this author!

This book is super cute and I read it in one sitting!

Jonas has been in a terrible accident and lost his leg. Brennan has awful anxiety and struggles to leave the house. Both are about to leave to go to college. What happens when Jonas and Brennan meet and form an unlikely friendship. Could it turn into more?

I seriously loved this book. I felt the chemistry between Jonas and Brennan immediately and was rooting for them from the second I started reading. After reading a few books where I struggled to sympathise with the characters, I was thrilled to read this and get so invested so quickly. Loved it!

What a cute book!

In this story we follow Jonas and Brennan. Jonas lost half his leg in a car accident and Brennan struggles with a severe anxiety disorder. After meeting after a small fender bender they develop a friendship. They both have insecurities that interfere with the blossoming relationship but that’s where we actually get to see each of them bloom. I found Brennan’s anxiety to be relatable to my own and really appreciated seeing mental illness and physical disability being represented in a Young Adult book. Normally I don’t like reading 2 points of view but this author did a wonderful job of not making it confusing.

Overall I loved that this was a story of overcoming life’s obstacles and meeting someone who makes you want to be your very best.

Multiple friends.

A beautiful story of resilience and overcoming ones flaws.
I loved how this book tackled both physical and psychological disabilities and how the characters individual struggles are dealt with. The romance was subtle and not the focus of the plot.
All the characters played their parts, had their moments to shine and felt relevant to the storyline.
The what if that the characters went through were very relatable (the whole story in fact.)

I enjoyed this book and would definitely recommended it.
