🎉🎉ARC REVIEW!🎉🎉
Behind the Scenes by Isa Lynn
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Elisa and Miles meet in their freshman year of high school. Elisa is new in town because her parents have moved her to a different school after an incident at her old school. They're successful enough to be able to buy a second home, and largely leave her there alone with her nanny. Miles is from a much different family, with two parents that only want to feed their addictions to drugs, alcohol, and violence, which leaves him living primarily with his best friend, across the street from Elisa's house. On the outside, they are frenemies, with Elisa's distrustful nature on full display. But in truth, Miles sees something in her from the start and pushes his way into her life until they are best friends.
This is really a story of how Miles and Elisa fly into and out of each others lives over a couple of decades but ultimately cannot stay away from each other. I enjoyed seeing how their relationship and trust in each other grew, even when they each made some boneheaded decisions. Lynn also tackles a number of difficult topics while telling their story, including sexual assault, neglectful parents, domestic violence, addiction, and stalking, and they are all handled in a thoughtful manner. This is my first book by Isa Lynn, and I would read more!
