This book is frustrating as hell. I so badly want to root for the characters, but they have a very toxic relationship. I was on the edge of my seat waiting for the next drama. If you don’t like miscommunication troupe this is not the book for you.

it's a very simple book, not in the cliché way. It's good and very easy to read. It's not the best but it was definitely worth my time, can't wait to read the next one!
I wish that Ava and Jesse would have infinite books cause, let me tell u, literally so much can happen with this two, and are so many things still to explain and develop with them and the people around them!!
If u are in the mood to read a very simple book, and are available to fall in love with the characters... PLEASE READ THE SERIES!!!
