The story starts off as the main character Lola Nolan, a high school student who designs and wears outrageous clothing and wigs, simply wishing for her fathers (yes, her fathers) to accept her current boyfriend Max. Max happens to be in a band, displaying several tattoos, whilst being 22, five years older than Lola. She has small troubles and things to worry about until her childhood neighbors, the Bell twins return after being away for several years.
Lola has had several issues in the past with Calliope, whom nearly everything revolves around and a lost childhood love connection between Cricket. Cricket has changed after being away for several years, his family always on the move for the benefits of his twin sister’s future. Lola is convinced that she loves her boyfriend Max and despises Cricket, yet when he comes around, she finds the same emotions creeping back after several years since he left her emotionally wounded.
A short, heart aching love story of a different unique girl and an awkward well dressed genius who struggle to find the words to admit their feelings after the long years they’ve spent apart. It’s heartwarming, irritating book of two characters who seem to find their connection in an instant, but drag out time to finally be together. It’s a pain in the chest to see them grow so close at some times, to the extent where you experience their aching desire for each other, only to be pulled apart again.
I would highly recommend this story to teen romance lovers who love a long fight for long before the end of the journey.
