I wish we could have gotten a little bit more about why Logan and Sebastian were the way they were and why Sebastian disliked Emilia so dang much!!! Frustrating boys!!! The secondary characters were mostly enjoyable, aside from Sebastian. The Surf shop owners who are practically Emilia's surrogate parents away from home were a great addition to the story as well. The quotes from whatever literature she happened to be studying at the time were amazing and made Logan all the more likeable. There were a few issues for me, mostly with the dialogue, but it was a really sweet story. The end! Definite shocker there.and it made me sad.and mad.and just WHY! I was Team Logan the entire way and he has to screw it all up!!! Gah! GAH!!!!! Just when I was holding out hope that I was going to get my happily ever after.NOOOO! I haven't seen a release date for book 2 but I know I'm very interested in seeing how these two are going to work this out (please tell me they work it out!) He really doesn't give her any indication that he isn't fully invested so I needed her to chill out!Īs I neared the last 10% and things were going fairly smoothly, I just KNEW two things: 1) something bad was going to happen and 2) we'd be left standing on the cliff waiting for our next book. He really has to struggle to keep this girl from falling through his fingertips because she is genuinely bound and determined to punish him for how he used to be. When I would have a lot of trouble with the dialogue with Emilia and Bryn, a scene with Logan would come up and he would be sweet and encouraging with Emilia and would get me back on track.

We really don't know a lot about him aside from when he is with Emilia because we are always in her point of view, but it is apparent that he has a lot of internal conflict going on in his poor tortured soul. Of course we'd be fools to think that all of this lovey dovey sweetness would remain, right?

He is very tender, patient, and sweet with her and she is very supportive and encouraging of him. These problems aside, they agree to take their relationship slowly and it is apparent that they are falling in love. Neither of them are familiar with the idea of dating and so they have a few hiccups along the way- a little jealousy, issues with trust, and Emilia often withholds her thoughts in favor of silently over-analyzing or jumping to conclusions. As the semester progresses, so does their romance.
