“If she isn’t mine in the end, I’ll still be hers.”

Arianna Johnson has been dreaming of what college life might bring, and it’s finally coming over the horizon as she and her friends plan one last beachside summer together. So much has changed over the years, but there’s always been one constant. The boy her heart returns to no matter where her imagination runs: her brother’s best friend, Chase. This is the summer she’ll finally tell him how she feels. That it’s him. It’s always been him. Until suddenly, it isn’t. Ari’s heart is in splinters when she meets star quarterback Noah Riley. His friendship is exactly what she needs after Chase’s rejection, but from the start, Noah wants more. Even when their path is blurry, even when tragedy strikes, even when Ari doesn’t know her own heart, Noah will fight for the feelings he knows they both have…no matter what it might cost them. They say first love lasts forever. Ari is about to find out if that’s really true.

I went into this book thinking it was going to be a sweet meet-cute with lots of smut. Now, there are some open door scenes, but I would not classify this is a smut book. I was first taken aback because the beginning and the characters seemed so immature! I was so annoyed with them and their completely unrealistic lifestyle. Not to mention, I felt like the was missing so much in the beginning. Brady would start talking about some characters and I would be so lost, like I should have read another book before this to get the history, but this is a standalone. So…. all of that aside, if you can get past about 30% into this book…. It becomes epic! One of the best love stories I have read! No words could do this book justice. The only thing wrong with it is it had the audacity to end. I literally want to live in this book forever.

HUGE five stars on this novel! For all the laughter, happiness, pain, sadness, shock, and anger I went through, this book will stay with me forever! Get your butt to the store and pick this up NOW!

Many thanks to NetGalley and Bloom Books Publishing for sharing this epic love story digital reviewer copy with me in exchange for my honest opinions.
