Sawyer has had a crush on Kaye . She has been with Aiden for the past 3 years, and she wants to go to Columbia. Sawyer also lives near Harper.

Kaye is trying to do it all her senior year. Sawyer and Kaye both have class leadership  and cheer.  He always asks outrageous questions to Kaye , but he is completely serious . Kaye is also having some issues with Homecoming. Sawyer and Kaye are having some discussions over many things.

Things start changing over talking , friends, and dreams. Kaye doesn't know her future , and neither does Sawyer but they help each other out.

I loved seeing everybody from the other books. I loved Sawyer and Kaye and they are hot together. I adored Sawyer in /out of the Penguin suit. I adored all the friends from the other books were in this book.

I love being back in this world. Many things change for the courtyard and for the humans working with them. Simon was in many meetings in this book. Simon and Meg are trying to figure out their relationship. I loved seeing Tess, Vlad, Ruthie. There were some moments I laughed out loud. Meg is becoming the Pathfinder for all the other girls. Seriously another amazing book and I am patiently waiting for the next book,and I hope more things happen between my fave couple. Nathan was amazing :)

Aroo Aroo waits patiently for the next book. Seriously you need to read this series.

This Heart of mine & proof of Forever

Phoenix is out of prison and back in whiskey creek living near her mom. Riley is apprehensive to see her with Jacob. omg best slow burn get together of this group. so many missed connections and Phoenix is very concerned about Jacob and making up for lost time. we do see the gang through the book, but the only main one is Kyle. the others are sporadic til a certain trip. this book was so much better than the others ones, and glad Lincoln ( rex) could be helpful :) I loved eve in this book.

I so wish that the other books previously were just as good. maybe because we don't see Presley or chey very much in the book. no resolution on the baby drama . I did love that this book was more about Riley and Phoenix. I can't wait to read Kyle story...what no Joe's book. :( on a side note I loved reading about the local town's and high schools playing baseball , so I could relate. I think that this brings the series back and I guess I am not breaking up with it. Thanks Riley and Phoenix...you brought a reader back. There was the right friend interaction and phoenix had a tough time getting back to normal life after being in prison.
