omg i just ugh i love them so much and all the gang too they truly are my life, i read this book in a day and i was working damn!! daisy and lincoln's story is still as heartbroken and as beautiful as i remember truly! nothing more to add just i still love their story so much and it's definitely the most like emotional but at the same time still fast paced and fun!! ugh love it!!
“I think…I think I didn’t call you love in the dismissive way I did everyone else because I knew if I ever said it to you, it would come true. That you would be my love, and I would love you, Daisy. I didn’t want that. I couldn’t risk it. So I never said it. But damn it Daisy, it ended up not mattering. I fell in love with you anyway. Somewhere between New York and Charlotte and back to New York again, I fell so hard for my Wallflower.”
“I thought we agreed not to call me that.”
His lips brushed her cheek, capturing the tear. “How about I call you something else? Love.”
Her eyes closed, and her heart soared. “Bet you say that to all the girls.”
“Not anymore,” he whispered, his mouth brushing over hers. “Only you, Daisy. You are my love.”
Where to begin with these two!! When people told me they were the most emotional and painful Lauren Layne book (of these series) they weren't really kidding, Lincoln and Daisy both broke my heart and put it back together, in a beautiful, intense, painful and amazing way!
Lincoln my man, my beautiful gentle kind man who had a lot to deal with, really a lot, when he finally figured it out and came to Daisy, I cried my eyes out, not only for them finally having their happy ending but also for Lincoln that finally accepted he deserved to be loved and have a family too! And Daisy, what a strong woman who truly deserves the whole world, she was so right to move forward and try to live her best life in the best way possible and also finding her passion!!
Like always I don't have enough words to express how much this book was actually so beautiful and so much more of what I was waiting for and it didn't disappoint!! Not only for them, their romance, their development as characters individually and as a couple, but also for, again, all the amazing friendship they all have with each other and god everytime the other characters were in the room, I couldn't help but cry of happiness and how much these characters, this family really means to me, they have become one of my comfort series and I'm not sorry about it!! I could rr them all over again and again and again and I know I couldn't even be tired of them, not for a second!
Seeing Daisy and Lincoln's finally happy ever after was actually so magical and so damn wonderful I don't know what to do with myself!!!
Now god Taylor and Nick's banter at the end of the book, uhh their book is going to be fire I can feel it and I can't wait!
“Fine, someday we’ll be old and gray, sitting on the porch in boring, old-person silence, and I’ll be just fine with that, because I’ll have everything I ever wanted. I’ll have you, Daisy Mathis.”
