~My Review~
5 Stars
I Was Provided A ARC By The Author
Last To know pulls you in from the first page. And doesn't let go until you have formed a strong bound with these characters and there world.
Emma Burke is a free spirit. She rather shop in vintage stores, and curl up in bed with a nice book, than party, or go to the mall like most seventeen year old girls do.
When she's dragged to the fair by her best friend Sadie to see some local, hot, upcoming band, Emma opts out to sit and read. But things change when she bumps into a tall, handsome, cocky guy.
Maddox Wade.
Emma has no idea she bumped into the drummer of said band, Willows Creek.
And Maddox's happy to keep it that way. He wants to be seen for the guy he is and not the fame he's about to have.
Instantly Emma & Maddox are drawn together, with there passion for music. Her the piano & writing music. Him the drums, and a little of everything else. There love of food, and adventure.
They have the same look at life.
"Prepare for the most epic summer of your life. Nothing will ever top this."
And with that one meeting, Emma & Maddox set off for a summer filled with adventure, love & laughs.
"You told me we wouldn't get arrested for feeding the ducks."
"Hey, at least it will be a nice story to tell your grandchildren one day."
I really loved everything about this story. The banter and the sweet, Innocent way that Maddox and Emma fall in love, is such a fresh take in a romance book. It brings the feeling of summer fun, and first love.
"Our lips moved together to a song of our own making."
Last To Know gave me that giddy, summer full of love, feeling i get when i read Sarah Dessen books.
"I'm just a girl and you're just a boy. But together, we're more. Maybe not perfect, but we're something pretty extraordinary."
Emma is a great, fresh female lead. She's a quirky, kind, loving person, who's been hurt, but she still lives her life. She's a fan of adventure and new experiences. Emma is a great friend, and daughter. I loved her sense of style. And her love of book's.
Emma embraces her quirkiness, and style, & rocks them.
"You can do anything, Emma." "We're all capable of great things if we allow ourselves."
Maddox Wade, has had a horrible up bringing. Escaping that life years early with his twin Mathias. He finally has a steady home, a loving family, and enjoys his passion for music. Along with his hedgehog, Sonic. (Now i really, really want a hedge hog.)
I really loved Maddox's love for his music, family, Sonic,(it was so adorable.) & Emma. (Sigh, his love for Emma. Swoon)
His love for life, after such a hard childhood makes him a great character.
He's a cocky, lovable, sweet, funny, musician. What more could you want?
"Do you want to do something crazy?"
"Anything we want."
"I want more adventures with you like we had today."
I also loved how the main characters were surrounded by such awesome friends & family. There funny and lovable, it's one great big family.
"This is our now."
The love story of Emma & Maddox is one i will visit again and again.
"Loving you is my greatest adventure. Nothing else means anything without you."
