Publisher's summary

The first novel in a brand-new series - from New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Abbi Glines - about a small, Southern town filled with cute boys in pickup trucks, Friday night football games, and crazy parties that stir up some major drama.

To everyone who knows him, West Ashby has always been that guy: the cocky, popular, way-too-handsome-for-his-own-good football god who led Lawton High to the state championships. But while West may be big man on campus on the outside, on the inside he's battling the grief that comes with watching his father slowly die of cancer.

Two years ago Maggie Carleton's life fell apart when her father murdered her mother. And after she told the police what happened, she stopped speaking and hasn't spoken since. Even the move to Lawton, Alabama, couldn't draw Maggie back out. So she stayed quiet, keeping her sorrow and her fractured heart hidden away.

As West's pain becomes too much to handle, he knows he needs to talk to someone about his father - so, in the dark shadows of a postgame party, he opens up to the one girl who he knows won't tell anyone else.

West expected that talking about his dad would bring some relief or at least a flood of emotions he couldn't control. But he never expected the quiet new girl to reply, to reveal a pain even deeper than his own - or for them to form a connection so strong that he couldn't ever let her go....

Sweet high school romance

Chapters were pretty short., but it was an enjoyable read. I think the story should have been developed more thoroughly and this would have made it a 5 star book.

Lots of introspection

This is a romance between high school students who are dealing with serious, very adult problems. Although the main characters are having difficulty dealing with their individual issues, the romance itself has little conflict. The story moves slowly with lots of introspection. There are no explicit sex scenes but there are references to lots of sexual activity among students. The characters seem older than their years, making it seem that the teen-agers are finding their one true love while still in high school. The story held my interest, although I wanted it to move along at times. A few loose ends lead me to believe there will be other books in the series.

Not New Adult

More like Young Adult. More immature than Abbi Glines other books. But still with quite enjoyable characters.

Best bad-boy-turned-good YA romance story EVER!

I've read 4 of the 5 Field Party novel series, but the West-Maggie romance is by far the best written and original storyline dealing with codependency and true love. A must read for hopeless romantics of all ages!

Olivia Song and Sebastian York were the perfect narrators for the sweet-but-broken heroine and rugged alpha male hero.

Painfully beautiful!

This is a beautiful story of friendship and young love. Two young adults who are way too familiar with death and loss. They support each other in what may be an unhealthy way but is truly beautiful.
This story will break your heart many times over and put a smile on your face as you see the resilience of youth, hope and love.

Wow

Loved the romance between West and Maggie. Didn’t exactly enjoy how cocky West was especially to someone like Maggie who just lost her mother and he just judged a boob by its cover. But overall it was a pretty great story and I can’t wait to read the rest of the books in the series!
