4.5 stars!Daisy and Daltrey were neighbors. Bonding as two 5 yr old kids who lost their moms. They were each other's best friends, each other's everything. Until Daltrey left their senior year of high school to pursue his dream of a rock band with his brothers. Daisy was happy for them. So happy she went along on tour at first to help them get their get break. And when they did, she had to return to school.Things happened while Daltrey was gone. Things Daisy can't even think of without having a panic attack. She hasn't spoken to Daltrey in a year. She can't think of him without having a panic attack.Daisy meets Paige and Karen, fellow freshman who won't take no for answer when it comes to friendship. They talk Daisy into going on a Ransom tour road trip. Thinking she can handle this, she contacts Daltrey to let him know she's coming.Daltrey is trying not to get his hopes up. What happened that she cut of all contact a year ago? Was she mad at him?I really loved this book! I loved the relationship between Daisy and Daltrey and the sweet, innocent flashbacks they both had of when they were young. The author wrote about Daisy's struggles as she over comes her fears and faces her past. There wasn't much written of the relationship between Daisy and Daltrey. Just a lot of shoulda, woulda, couldas of their relationship.I loved the characters! I laughed with Paige and Karen. Especially the part on the road trip with the talk list. I would've loved to have been in that car! And I cried with Daisy and Daltrey. Especially with what he tells her at the end. *swoon*I would've liked to have read more about the aftermath of Daltrey's trip to Ohio. There were snippets in the Epilogue which satisfied my curiosity and I was able to fill in the blanks. I hope the next book focuses more on their relationship and how they are as a couple.***I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review***
