They say timing is everything Timing is everything. When Henna meets Bodhi their timing is all off. Their random ride share at Coachella has Henna instantly smitten and Bodhi giving in to his curiosity about this girl. Concerts don't last forever and they go their separate ways.Starting her senior year of high school at age 19 due to an extended recovery from a life changing accident, Henna is resigned to just get the year over with and graduate, until she meets the new guidance counselor. Timing is everything.I wasn't sure I was going to like Henna's character. She seemed like a flippant pothead at first, lol, but the more I learned about her the more I liked her. She's a free spirit who leads with her heart more than her head, but it works for her. Bodhi was a character I was immediately drawn to because he was broken, broken by the results of his own actions and choices, and he was living with the repercussions of that every single day. Their love is intense and pure and soul deep, but timing is everything. The supporting characters were all pivotal and the moral choices and dilemmas involved made me pause and really think about the situations at hand. This had more angst than I anticipated (fist pump) and my eyes leaked more than once. I loved it.Love, sacrifice and life lessons 4.5 stars. In typical Jewel Ann style, right off the bat there's a heroine who is bold and sassy with a bit of a reckless or rebellious attitude. Henna Lane doesn't sweat the small stuff after surviving an experience that taught her to live her life to the fullest. She's all about adventure and exploration as well as giving into a good time. Bodhi comes along like an unassuming surfer cowboy with rock band musical tastes and it's like an instant electric zap to Henna. Their exchanges were really cute and flirty with an undertone of sweet. Henna comes on really strong and although Bodhi doesn't seem to mind, he's already noticing there's some stark differences between he and Henna, but welcomes the reprieve from his daily life that she provides for him.I wouldn't say this was an overly angsty story like some of Jewel Ann's other books, although there are some moments that are ulcer inducing. There are moral dilemmas woven throughout the plot that gave me pause as to what was the right thing to do. That was already enough to give me some reader anxiety about where this story was going to go and when Henna or Bodhi would make the wrong decisions. But is it wrong when it's born out of love for another person? Henna, for all of her vibrant youthfulness, is in fact young, but there are moments when her maturity speaks volumes over her actual age. As for Bodhi, he is mature, but he's also very burdened by a past that he can't let go of because it affects him in the present. My heart squeezed hard for him and what he was dealing with. As humans, it's impossible to make the right decision the first time every time. But what matters is righting the wrongs afterwards and learning the lesson to be a better person to avoid such costly mistakes again.I really loved Bodhi and Henna’s relationship although I was a little slower than them to catch up with their intense level of chemistry, it was like a jump off the diving board into the abyss with no hope of return when read from Henna's POV. I adored Bodhi, he's the tender hearted conflicted hero whose personal wants war with his responsibilities. Yet he can't help but want what Henna has to offer. There's a sensitive issue towards the end that really highlighted how people have differing opinions on what is the right thing to do and puts relationships to the test, because ultimately, it is selfish on each party's behalf, and that a person in a position with very little choices still wants to make their own final choice. I appreciated how this section was portrayed and my favorite part was everything that came afterward. There was no way I could have predicted how this story was going to go based on the blurb so the surprises revealed kept me engrossed and the character journey was inspiring.Enjoyable read Jewel E Ann gave me three five star books last year and I was really looking foward to reading this one. I must admit I did find the first half hard going and I had that "meh " feeling throughout, however the last fifty percent really kept my attention and prevented that DNF. I am glad I persevered and finished but I have to be honest and say if it wasn't Jewel E Ann I probably would have given up.I would have loved to have learned more about what happened to Henna to make her the way she was, her highs and lows after her accident, I feel this may have ingratiated her more to me in the beginning as I just couldn't connect to her in the beginning. The insta-love didn't convince me at all unfortunately, however, I was championing this couple by the end.So while this wasn't a winner, winner I still enjoyed it at the end. Jewel E Ann tackles some hard subjects that make you think and loved the honesty with which they were dealt. I will say I seem to be in the minority and this may work for you, many of my friends have loved it.“Love is not a rational emotion. It jumps out of planes and dives off cliffs. It leaves a permanent mark on everything it touches. I can do the right thing or I can love you, but I can’t do both.”
