The New York Times bestselling sensation hits the UK.
From #1 Sunday Times bestselling author of It Ends With Us, Colleen Hoover's romantic, emotion-packed debut novel unforgettably captures all the magic and confusion of first love, as two young people forge an unlikely bond before discovering that fate has other plans for them.
Following the unexpected death of her father, eighteen-year-old Layken becomes the rock for both her mother and younger brother. She appears resilient and tenacious, but inside, she's losing hope. Then she meets her new neighbour Will, a handsome twenty-one-year-old whose mere presence leaves her flustered and whose passion for poetry slams thrills her.
Not long after a heart-stopping first date during which each recognizes something profound and familiar in the other, they are slammed to the core when a shocking discovery brings their new relationship to a sudden halt. Daily interactions become impossibly painful as they struggle to find a balance between the feelings that pull them together and the forces that tear them apart. Only through the poetry they share are they able to speak the truth that is in their hearts and imagine a future where love is cause for celebration, not regret.

Amazing emotional love story
After her fathers sudden death Layken has to move to Michigan with her mother and her little brother. She always seems to be the strong one but on the inside shes fighting to keep up her hope. Then she meets her next door neighbor Will and they hit it off immediately.
Imagine what a shock It was when Layken realized that they just cant be together. While both of them are fighting their feelings the only way how they can be truly honest is trough poetry.
I loved this book from the very first page. Layken is a truly inspiring character. She had to go through so much and still shes a strong young woman willing to do everything for her little brother. You can see something similar in Will and thats probably one of the reasons they get along immediately. I also love the way that poetry adds to the story. Through the poetry slam Will & Lake can have a way to express their feelings without everyone around them knowing. The only thing that I could note as a negative is the fact that it is a bit unrealistic for William and Lake to have such a similar life story.
It was my first Colleen Hoover story but it will definitely not be my last. She has a great writing style and relatable/ interesting characters.
