  How do you deal with a life you don’t want and a future you’re terrified of? Run. That’s what I’ve planned to do for years; run from this narrow world I was born into. Run from the friends I love, but who bind me to the roots I want to leave behind. Run, towards the anonymity I so desperately crave, to a place where no one knows who I am; where no one cares who my family are. But something happened that changed all of my plans. My best friend, my sister, fell off her pedestal and hit the ground with a crash. Now I realise I’m not as ready as I thought I was to run from this life and these people. Maybe I need the roots that I thought were holding me back, that were actually just stopping me from floating away. I’m a Scion, one of the elite. I was born into this life, but I crave more. Everything that’s happened in the last year has shown me that I need my roots, but I want to spread my wings too. College, boys, adulthood, it’s all calling my name and it’s time to figure out who I am. My name is Emmy Devereaux and I’m so much more than just the daughter of the president of The Doomsday Sinners MC. PURCHASE LINK https://books2read.com/wingsandrootsgw   My favorite book to date by this author I am loving this spin-off series from Archers Creek, I love MC romance but following the next generation has also been brilliant. Wings & Roots ticked all my boxes. I love a childhood to adult romance, I love a protective male character and I absolutely adore a coming of age best friends to lovers story. The Scions as they were known in their High school, children of the Doomsday sinners are ready to fly the nest and move to college, they make a decision to all move to the same college together. These are five characters that have a close bond with each other but none of them are as close to each other as Griff and Emmy who have had a special bond since the age of 8. I loved the slow-burn in this story although the romantic in me got frustrated and I wanted Griff and Emmy to get together sooner but these were two best friends who were afraid to act on their feelings, Emmy brushed her feelings aside and was excited at the prospect of a new life away from home where no one knew who she was or who her family was, while Griff was reaching the point of boiling especially when Emmy was starting to get interest from the Male students from college, back in their hometown no one dared to approach the daughter of the MC president but college away from home was a whole new ball game and Griff had to make a decision to either confess his love or lose her to someone else. I didn't want it to end, I was totally engrossed in this story which was brilliantly balanced by the author with just the right amount of angst and interest in the plot to keep me turning the pages. I cannot wait for more from Gemma Weir, I will be eagerly awaiting her next book. Wings and Roots is about self-discovery, accepting your roots and in the process, learning to fly. Beautiful! Told in first person dual pov. Can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend experiencing the dynamics of the close friendships these characters have with one another and their background so I would suggest starting with book one in this series
