Everyone thinks Dean Collins is too old for Fallon Blackwood. Her parents, her friends, even Dean himself. In fact, he wants her to date guys her own age. But Fallon doesn’t care about that. All she cares about is that she can’t take his eyes off Dean, her neighbor, her best friend, the guy who taught her to ride a bike and to climb trees. All she cares about is that sometimes Dean can’t take his eyes off her, either. And that sometimes he looks at her like he wants to kiss her. So it doesn’t matter that he’s thirty-two and she’s eighteen. All that matters is that they belong with each other, and she needs to convince him of that. Good thing they’re taking a cross-country road trip together, right? California to New York; three thousand miles and a love story in the making… *Featuring Simon Blackwood and Graham Edwards from ‘The Heartstone Series.’ **This is a STANDALONE NOVELLA. It was released as a part of Mixtape Anthology. Since then, it has been revised and expanded and re-titled.

I really enjoyed reading this book. It is definitely shorter than the others BUT also very different. I didn’t feel like Fallon and Dean’s love story was rushed. I would have loved to see more of their story as a couple BUT I feel like their story was told very well. The love for each other was there all along, one of them only was refusing to see it.
Saffron Kent always makes it hard to not love her characters. Fallon and Dean were completely different, personality wise, but they compliment each other so well. What I absolutely LOVED about this book was seeing the story from other points of views! Loved seeing Willow and Violet back and being able to read from their perspectives! I also loved being introduced to Rosie and her thoughts!
This was definitely a quick read but an enjoyable one. I do recommend reading it if you love Kent’s work. She doesn’t disappoint.
