When I asked my best friend to run away with me at sixteen, I knew he'd say no.He had football, an amazing family, and a happy home to go back to every day.So the night I snuck out of his bedroom window after hugging him goodbye, I'd accepted I'd probably never see him again.Then we both wind up at Lindon University four years later.I'm barely picking up the pieces of my life when the boy whose initials I used to doodle hearts around approaches me at work.Aiden Griffith. Lindon U's star tight end.Still as attractive. Still as dedicated.With rumors of him being drafted to the NFL coming to fruition, I know it's only a matter of time before we have to say goodbye again.But he can't seem to let me go no matter what I say, and I don't think I want him to.

This book I felt was mentally exhausting just because of how much baggage Ivy had and how unwilling she was for love. But it had a very cute ending!

This was interesting. I really enjoyed the book. The storyline was unique and that was my favorite part of it. I didn’t know much going in and I think I preferred it like that. Learning of Ivy’s past and where it has gotten her is so emotional and something that is heavy but realistic. Aiden’s mind is one I wanted to explore more when Ivy came back into his life. Especially with the importance of football in it too. It felt rushed to get to that conclusion I knew we would get to but the journey of it could have been interesting. A favorite part was then never saying they were together but it’s like they knew at the same time. The back and forth was one I haven’t really read before so I’m not used to it but I enjoyed it because it gave a refreshing new look at a book couple that I haven’t really read much of.

Muito, muito parecido com “Enemies” da Tijan mas a versão mais aborrecida e secante.
A justificação da protagonista odiar o interesse amoroso é que ele com 16 anos se recusou a fugir com ela. Repito, com 16 ANOS ele não fugiu com ela, não deixou a família que tinha (que eram super chegados), a escola (onde ele era popular e se dedicava ao futebol) e tudo o que conhecia. Epa.. wtf? 
O problema é que a vida da protagonista não era assim tão má. A sério. Os pais discutiam e a mãe preferia o irmão. Yup. É isso. 
Achei mesmo o plot super oco e vazio e que a única intenção era ser dramático para caraças - mission accomplished. 
No entanto, a família do protagonista e o próprio protagonista salvam o livro o suficiente para merecer as três estrelas.
