I fell completely in love with these two characters. Emery was like my internal monologue on paper and it was such a joy to read his lack of filter spill all over the pages. I was definitely rooting for these two from the get go and even though the back and forth of their relationship could give readers a little bit of whiplash, it seemed totally reasonable for the characters Rose was writing. I was very happy to have these two finally get their HEA. 

I’ve read Emery before, but I forgot how much I adored it. Emery is the sweetest little baby and watching him get his happily ever after made my heart so happy. Parts of the story hurt for sure, but it made the payoff so much sweeter. I loved seeing how they were both so different from what the other expected, and how their characters were revealed was so good. 
The development between Emery and Thomas was also so good and seeing how they worked to repair their relationship and really put in that effort instead of just a quick fix where everything was suddenly fine made it even better. 
The cameos from past and future characters were so funny, and I can’t decide who I’m more excited for next, Luke and Elliot or Lex.

Cora Rose is one of my favorite new authors. I've loved every book I've read by her so far and this book was no different.
This story and the characters were beautifully written. I loved the ADHD representation and how well it showed how it can effect life. It also showed living with diabetes and PTSD, just not quite to the extent ADHD was shown.
This story follows Emery and August who just became stepbrothers. There's a bit of dislike-to-like at at the start (not quite enemies or hate to love), but as August comes to understand Emery his dislike and frustrations with him quickly fade. They get lost driving to a winter cabin for a family vacation and have to survive a night trapped in a car together during the winter. They connect and learn some things about each other while stuck in the snow. The rest of the story follows the ups and downs of them figuring out their attraction and what to do with it.
Emery has ADHD golden-retriever energy. He can be a bit OTT and annoying due to how heavily his ADHD effect him, but is one of the most lovable characters I've read in a while. He's full of depth and nuance. 
August was the perfect balance to Emery's constant unpredictable energy. He accepted Emery for who he was and their relationship was really beautiful. I did get frustrated with August's struggle to tell his mom about their relationship, but it didn't ruin the story for me.
I found this story to a refreshing take on the stepbrothers trope and I really enjoyed reading the story.
