    I really enjoyed this story, I haven't ever read anything about skaters and that made it all the more interesting for me. I really like the diversity in the different characters and all of their relationships. The writing flowed well, I have never read anything written by Jennifer Comeaux, but after this I plan to!

    I don't really know where to start so I will dive right in, Josh-OMG love him! Josh is the cutest love interest I have encountered, and I read A LOT! He's nervous, shy, determined, smart, sweet, creative, caring, athletic, cute, and supportive! He and Courtney compliment each other perfectly. Courtney was sassy, energetic, innocent and very determined. She made me laugh a few times with her nervousness and the way she just wont keep things in her head and instead blurts them out. But Courtney felt to me as if she wasn't an adult, she was written as more of a girl coming into womanhood. This actually made it work for their budding relationship and also tied in with the rival, Stephanie. I Hated Stephanie, I'm so glad that Jennifer Comeaux was able to make Stephanie believably hate-able! I also really loved Sergei, Emily and their adorable children. The family interaction was just wonderful and heart warming, it made you see what Josh and Court could have.

    Overall, this was a really fun, and quick read that I was really impressed with. I am really grateful to the author, Jennifer Comeaux, for allowing me to have a copy in exchange for my thoughts and will be purchasing a copy in support of her continued work.
