Crossroads by Nicole Dykes
Crossroads was a 5-star read for me — emotional, raw, and deeply touching. This story is so much more than a simple opposites-attract romance.
Emerson, the spoiled city boy sent to his aunt’s farm for the summer, and Jasper, the grumpy country boy who works there, couldn’t be more different. Their story begins with tension and clashing personalities but slowly grows into something real, heartfelt, and full of meaning. What truly makes this book special is how both characters learn to meet each other halfway — the compromises they make for love and the way they learn to accept and support one another.
Jasper completely stole my heart. His struggles and emotions felt so real and reminded me of moments in my own life. The way Nicole Dykes portrayed his pain, love, and growth was so honest that it brought tears to my eyes more than once. This story resonated deeply with me — especially the parts about family, love, and learning to face difficult emotions.
Crossroads is a beautiful, emotional journey about love, acceptance, and the courage to grow. It’s tender, moving, and filled with genuine heart. And I have to say, I absolutely love the cover too!
