I absolutely hate second chance books. In my opinion the best parts are always getting to know each other and the developement of feelings. This book though was great. It didn't feel like second chance maybe because of all the trauma and the fact that Graham was realizing he didn't even know himself. The part in the hospital broke me a little. I personally didn't like Bella. Right after Rikker told her he was gay she accepted him and ... kissed him? I don't know, it felt really weird and I didn't like it. He went along with because he felt like he'd be an asshole if he didn't. That felt even weirder. In the rest of the story Bella was fine but this impression in the beginning kinda ruined her character for me. Kinda wished for more hockey scenes especially playing together and for a couple more scenes in the end after they get back to school, but all in all a great book.
