Arizona shows up with a new boyfriend after going to France for culinary school. At least not enough to convince me that he made the huge mistake of letting her go or he let her go because he thought it would be best.Īnd then the way it was wrapped up was borderline random. However, Carter never expressed much frustration or pain or yearning. I really enjoyed that because it means we can experience both sides and how they deal with the same events. One of the main problems I had with this book is that Carter’s point of not wanting to be with Arizona was not fully flushed out. It’s unbelievable that they didn’t realize what they had until it all shot to hell. Every time a guy mistreats Arizona, Carter is always there picking up the pieces and fixing the problem. Every time a relationship fails for Carter, his ex blames Arizona for being in their lives. Failed relationships, slimy dates, and the crazy exes all happened to both of them. It had all the essential elements to a good romance story but I had some issues near the end with the conflict/angst between Carter and Arizona.īest friends since grade four according to Arizona but grade five according to Carter, Carter and Arizona are attached at the hip. I’m only saying this until I figure out if she’s still “just” my best friend… My thoughts…4/5 stars This book was a hard 4 stars out of 5 stars to me. Throughout the years, and despite what anyone says, we’ve never crossed the line. (We even went to colleges that were minutes away from each other…) We’ve been there for one another through first kisses, first “times,” and we’ve been each other’s constant when good relationships turned bad.

Arizona Turner has been my best friend since fourth grade, even when we “hated” each other.
