Stella lives with cystic fibrosis only as it worsens and her lung function plummets she needs a transplant fast.

She wishes she could be with her best friends in Cabo.

Also in the hospital is Poe her gay friend and new boy, Will who wants to be living the end of his life not wasting time on a hospital trial that may extend his life as he fights a bacterial infections that's resistant to antibiotics.

Stella and Will keep meeting and seeing each other only getting closer and closer and one cough between the pair could spread infection and kill them...

So as the pair communicate by Skype, phone and partial contact, maybe Will can have some faith this times drug trial might work and Stella can move on from her family's trauma but as she fights an infection, Poe prepares to finally visit his family and Will awaits news of his trial drug, who will be left alive?

I can't wait for the film this year after reading this and loving it! The main two characters have an instant connection that is super and beyond their illness, the story was intriguing and led us to hope the pair survived if not end up together as we'd hope!

Many thanks to the publishers for allowing me to review this book for them!
