This is my honest review.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>This is the first book in The Next Generation Series. If you haven&#8217;t read their parents books, don&#8217;t worry, you will still be able to understand what is going on in this book. Although, I do HIGHLY recommend going back and reading them later. They are great books! Every book I have read by this author has been fantastic!<\/p>\n<p>Zach and Luna have been friends since forever, but both of them feel like they want to be more. However, there are things in the way of their union; a couple of the biggest obstacles include, Luna&#8217;s dad and Zach&#8217;s demons.<\/p>\n<p>When these 2 connect, there is oh SO MUCH hotness. I felt like I needed a cold shower after some scenes. I was rooting for these two from the beginning. I wanted them to get the happily ever after I felt like they both deserved. The question is- were they able to get past everything that was standing in their way? I adored this book and everyone in it- I am looking forward to the next book in this series.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/about-the-author.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6153\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/about-the-author.png?resize=231%2C55\" alt=\"\" width=\"231\" height=\"55\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"dataTitle\">Born&nbsp;in Canada<\/div>\n<div class=\"dataTitle\">Website<\/div>\n<div class=\"dataItem\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutjmwalker.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.aboutjmwalker.com<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"dataTitle\">Genre<\/div>\n<div class=\"dataItem\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/genres\/romance\">Romance<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/genres\/ebooks\">Ebooks<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"dataTitle\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"aboutAuthorInfo\"><span id=\"freeTextContainerauthor5132169\">J.M.
