This was such a fun, summery read. The romance was really sweet and the disability representation phenomenal! 

Cassie was such a loveable character and I enjoyed watching her grow in confidence, accept the support from the people who love her most and embrace her differences instead of trying to hide or minimise them. 

I’ve not read many books with a deaf main character, so found Cassie’s experiences with Cochlear implants really interesting and informative. Plus her chemistry with dreamy love interest Levi was absolutely perfect, I couldn’t help but root for them! 

I loved soo many of the supporting cast of characters too, particularly Cassie’s bestie (and biggest supporter), Pen who definitely deserves a sequel of their own. 

If you’re looking for a quick read to lose yourself in this summer, then you definitely need to check this out.
