4.0

Reread in 2024. A compulsively readable, messy story of the ugly parts of loving someone and letting them love you back. I will admit I found myself more frustrated with this book the second time around, particularly with Miles and the dissonance between his words and actions (which is the entire point of this book, but it just didn’t land the same way for me re-reading it) 

I would have really loved to see more of Miles working on himself outside of the relationship and working with a professional. Everything wrapped up so magically and cleanly here.

All that said, I still really enjoy reading this book and the part of me that relishes reading about messy relationships is certainly satisfied (The “just finish” scene lives in my brain rent free)

"𝑰𝒇 𝑰 𝒘𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒄𝒂𝒑𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒐𝒏𝒆… 𝒊𝒕 𝒘𝒐𝒖𝒍𝒅 𝒃𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖."



This book is both the story of Tate Collins and Miles Archer. The book flips between Tate's present-day life and Miles's past, revealing the secrets that have kept him closed off from love and relationships.

 

I enjoyed the chemistry between Tate and Miles it was not only slow-burning but both sweet and intense. I had tears in my eyes at certain points in the book, this is not a fluffy or cute romance. This book takes your heart and stomps on it a few times. It's official, this book is in my second favorite CoHo book!

 

If you are a romance novel lover that has an emotional punch. This book is for you. It is definitely a fast read, I could not put this book down as it had me on the edge of my seat as I wanted to know what was going to happen and what secrets would be brought to light.
