Dear Ava
Ratings9
Average rating3.9
WSJ bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills delivers a gripping enemies-to-lovers, secret admirer, high school romance.
The rich and popular Sharks rule at prestigious, ivy-covered Camden Prep. Once upon a time, I wanted to be part of their world--until they destroyed me.
The last thing I expected was an anonymous love letter from one of them.
Please. I hate every one of those rich jerks for what they did to me. The question is, which Shark is my secret admirer?
Knox, the scarred quarterback.
Dane, his twin brother.
Or Chance, the ex who dumped me. . .
Dear Ava,
Your eyes are the color of the Caribbean Sea.
Wait. That's stupid.
What I really mean is, you look at me and I feel something REAL.
It's been ten months since you were here, but I can't forget you.
I've missed seeing you walk down the hall.
I've missed you cheering at my football games.
I've missed the smell of your hair.
And then everything fell apart the night of the kegger.
Don't hate me because I'm a Shark.
I just want to make you mine.
Still.

Wow. This was heavy but so beautifully written...
This isn't your typical high school romance. It was weightier and more meaningful than I expected. Ava and Knox have been through some harsh realities that ultimately make their connection deeper. There's a range of complex emotions between them. I don't know how you walk away from this book not completely in love with both of them.

okay ik this book is so angsty and dramatic and messy but it resonates with my angsty, dramatic, messy soul consistently

This book was just perfection and I just adored the characters and the themes throughout it. It made me so emotional and for being a high school romance, I feel like it dealt with everything perfectly. The end also was written so well and I just loved every moment of it. I couldn't put it down.
