I don't know what there is about young love that I love to read about but I just love it!  Embrace picks up right where Emerge left off and continues with an alternating POV.  What I loved even more was even though this is Evan's story, we still get POV from Laney and Dane.  I felt like it was a true continuation from Emerge and didn't feel like I was missing the original story of Laney and Dane.So we have Evan, the good ole country boy that left his full scholarship at UGA to follow his heart to Southern to be with Laney only to have his heart broken.  He quickly finds a friend in Sawyer, his complete opposite. I loved the wit and comedy of the interaction between them.  With Sawyer's help, he gets him out and about and to convince Evan to forget about Laney.  He meets the prim and proper Whitely.  She was raised with money and is so different that Laney.  Evan instantly falls for her but because of what went down with Laney, he is afraid to act on it.  He decides that they should just be friends for now.  He goes on several blind dates that are pure disasters.  He then decides to ask Whitely on a date take it from there.  I love that Evan is the true gentlemen and is the big softy that knows how to treat a lady.  Evan has always thought him and Laney would end of together but he soon he realizes that his true love is not who he expects it to be."Maybe your true self only thrives in the accompaniment of the one made to bring it out in you"- EvanWith Evan's story unwrapping we still have Laney and Dane.  The author does a wonderful job linking the two stories and not once did I ever feel lost or confused about the other story.  The love they have for each continues to grow but we also learn more about Dane's secret and when it's exposed, he is afraid that it will push Laney away forever."You are the best thing about me.  The only thing is the whole world more beautiful than you is my love for you" -DaneI love a good love story and with these we get two! We have the continuation of one story and the blossoming of another that I didn't want to end.  I love the characters and felt like I knew them all.  It makes you wish that you lived in Georgia and went to Southern with all of them! I loved this story and cannot wait for Sawyers book as he is hands down my favorite character.  5 huge stars!!
