Review

I didn’t quite feel the relationship, to be honest. There is just no relationship buildup at all! Not even in the past nor in the present. The main characters meet for the first time when they’re both ten years old for a very brief moment, VERY BRIEF! Yet they somehow fell in love and then part ways. Then they reconnected again 7 years later and claim they’ve been in love with each other since that day. We didn’t get to see the love blooms. It was really hard to feel emotionally connected with their love story. However, I was able to connect with them as individuals and was able to finish the book.

❝ Some part of me recognized a part of you that day—as if I had found a missing piece of myself.❞

From USA Today and Wall St. Journal bestselling author Emma Scott comes an all-new emotional, angsty coming-of-age love story.

“The love I felt for Emery could not be measured or formulated into an equation. It wasn’t a finite particle but an infinite wave that rippled out into forever.”

After meeting at ten, a lonely genius and a kind-hearted girl promised to stay in touch. But Xander’s letters never reached Emery, leaving them both feeling betrayed and heartbroken.

Seven years later, Xander returns to Castle Hill and crosses paths with the girl he never forgot. The academy’s rowing team offers a diversion from caring for his ailing father—but can it distract him from her?

Emery Wallace is popular and wealthy, yet beneath her flawless exterior she is crumbling under her father’s high expectations. He controls her life with an iron grip, while her mother disappears into alcohol, drowning in grief over losing her eldest son.

When their worlds collide again, neither can ignore the magnetic pull that ignited the moment they met. While Xander finds solace in logic and certainty, Emery reveals the humanity in our universe, showing him that, like light, we exist as both particles and waves—individual yet infinite, broken yet whole.

Xander and Emery must battle forces determined to keep them apart. As Xander’s orderly life unravels and Emery’s future slips away, can their light find each other and endure?
