This was so cute but had me teary by page 8. Reminds me of Julie Buxbam's work. A quick, YA contemporary that's absolutely worth reading.

A beautiful story but I was disappointed with the romance. 🙈 But it was still a sad and inspiring story. I really wanted to love it so bad but it had a few problems that didn't do it for me. I love Colton tho ❤️ 2/5 ⭐️

💓 this book. Heart transplant love story, loved the quotes and facts about the heart at the beginning of each chapter. Easy read but a good read.
