Maaaaaan I wanted to love this more!! 3.5 stars⭐️
But I think it’s me, not the book😩 Personally I struggle through second chance stories that have a lot of flashbacks. I felt more invested in the present day plot and often found myself hurrying to get back to those chapters.
It also felt like there was a lack of emotional build up, due to the main characters already knowing each other from childhood. I wish there had been more build up or emotional depth in the present storyline, but I fear the story relied on the characters history and the flashbacks for that.
That being said, I read this in 2 days😅 Liz’s writing is addictive and still a fun read. I also enjoyed Hallie and Rio as individuals, even if parts of their chemistry felt off or not as deep as the other couples.

I think this might've been my favorite one of the series.
Watching these two heal and find their way back to each other melted my heart.

Such a good read to get out of a reading slump! If you’re looking for a book that will make you swoon and kick your feet over how good the character dynamic is but also makes you double over as the plot thickens and unfolds, this is definitely for you.

The end. Never did I think hearing those two small words from a series would make me so emotional but dang it they did. This book was perfection. Megan and Connor were phenomenal bringing this book to life. Finally getting to see our sweet goofball Rio get his love story was everything. Him and Hallie were everything. I laughed. I cried. I felt it all. Gosh I'm going to miss this series so much, but what a way to end
Thank you Liz for these 10 characters, s couples, s teams, 2 sets of siblings, and one incredible friend group ❤️

The perfect way to end this incredible series. I don't think I'm ready for this to be over, I LOVED every single book in this series SO MUCH. Liz Tomforde, thank you for giving us five AMAZING couples to fall in love with and cry over. This series will always hold a special place in my heart.
