I knew I loved Evan!! What an amazing man. In Emerge, I was team Dane all the way. Didn't mean I didn't love Evan too, just knew that Dane and Laney were too perfect together and a much better fit. I mean Dane is DANE.....need I say more. But Evan, WOW, I really hurt for his heart in the beginning. Embrace picks up right after Laney shoots Evan down and breaks his heart because she has fallen in love with Dane.  He's still upset, hurt and stuck at a new college after he's given up his chance to start at football because of the transfer and he really doesn't know anyone there. The only friends he has are the ones in "the crew" which are the same friends as Laney and Dane. Sawyer .....my boy Sawyer, absolutely freaking love him by the way.....anyways, Sawyer takes Evan out to help him meet someone to help him move on and get over Laney. Who does he meet? Whitley. Yep the one Laney hates. Well, she's nice to Evan and the two form a quick friendship and spend lots of time together.This book has some of the funniest conversations. Being in Evan's head is damn hilarious!  We get POVs from Evan, Whitley, Dane and Laney and all are so great in keeping us up with what's going on.  We also get to go on dates with Evan, and I can promise you, you will love the girls he gets set up with.This story is mostly about Evan and Whitley, although as a background we get updates on Dane and Laney, as well as Evan and Laney's hometown friend Parker.  In this book we see a different Whitley. We get the real one who is shy and kinda naive and really just needs a friend. Evan is perfect for her and their friendship blossoms to more before they realize what is happening. The things he says and does, his manners, his upbringing, no parent could pick a better man for their daughter. He is absolutely perfect. He can make you swoon with a wink and grin and the romantic in him is too perfect.Wonderful book. I have loved both in this series so far, and CANNOT flippin wait to get Sawyer' s book. I bet he's going to meet a girl who will bring his playing, non commitment a$$ to his knees. It will be epic I'm sure. And make sure you check out his POV in the Epilogue. Just love him.
