Arch Lancaster took me by surprise because I wasn’t sure how much or little he would be like his cousins and there were moments when his cruelty showed that I knew under there was a heart that bled for that one. He wants to just be done with Lancaster Prep but forced to continue his senior year he’s already angry at the world, but for some reason he takes it out on Daisy. When Arch can’t explain what he feels when it comes to Daisy his first reaction is to lash out at her and hurt her, when he really wants to hold her. Daisy is kind, sweet, and a wallflower as she goes through her days at Lancaster Prep practically a ghost and she is fine with that until Arch enters her life. At first, they can’t stand each other and the more time they spend together they learn little things that have a friendship blooming and eventually that turns to more, but with Daisy’s insecurities and Arch’s reputation can anything between them even work. They come from completely different backgrounds and those around them don’t want them together and push for them to fail. I wanted to smack around a few characters like Cadence and Daisy’s dad, but there were times I wanted to shake some backbone into Daisy herself. Arch was all in when he finally admitted to himself that Daisy meant a lot to him, but she pushes him away. Can something happen between the god of the school and the grounds keeper’s daughter when it’s them against the world? I really loved this book because Arch is like his cousins that came before him with the same attitude in life then falling hard for the girl that climbs those walls his has built up. ( )
