I can’t not say this is a 5 star read!!! I was totally sucked into the story from the beginning, and while it’s funny, and swoony, it covers some tough deep topics.
Lydia Alexander has just graduated high school, and is leaving on a trip with her French class to go meet their pen pals they’ve had all through high school. She can’t wait to meet Noel who knows her deepest secrets and understands her better than anyone else. But the plan for a month of never ending girl time she thinks she’s gonna have takes a 360 when she finds out that Noel is actually a tough, tatted, handsome MAN!!! (Don’t worry, it’s totally not creepy - the teacher in France was short one student so she recruited her son who was 3 years older to fill in for the one American student without a pen pal 😉)
Noel is the bad boy with a good heart, and my newest book boy friend!! 😍 He is sweet, and passionate, if not a little too “thinks he knows what’s best for everyone”... but don’t worry, Lydia is a strong force to be reckoned with, and puts him in his place.
While there’s plenty of swoony chemistry between the characters, and all the “does he love me as much as I love him”, and all that great romance stuff we all love, there’s also a deeper, more serious side to this read. It deals with creepy stalker harassment as Lydia is bombarded with texts, and unwanted advances. It also makes the characters face moral grey areas - is wronging one person to right another situation right or wrong??? (I hope that makes sense, if not, just read the book!!🤪)
This book is told in dual perspective, has great side characters, heart stopping action - both swoony and lawfully questionable, and is a friends to more trope. But it’s 100% clean!! @authorgracieruth is phenomenal at writing YA that is totally not juvenile and great for teens and adults who like clean reads.
This book just released today, so go do some late night kindle shopping and grab your copy while it’s still only $0.99!!
