Highly Suspicious and Unfairly Cute is a love story between once friends, now enemies, Celine and Brad. They both enter a survival contest for a chance to win a scholarship and are forced to work together. Along the way they learn more about themselves and the dreams of the future they were so set on, but they also rehash the past, discovering why they really stopped being friends in the first place.
I absolutely loved this book. It was so funny and the characters had so much personality. I loved Celine and almost related to her a little too much. I loved Brad and all his quirks. I loved getting to see these two learn to trust each other again, especially Celine as she dealt with more personal issues and learned to open up. I especially loved seeing how they supported each other and their dreams. They helped each other realize their potential and encouraged each other to go after what they truly wanted. Overall, I adored this. It was so cute and very meaningful.
Thank you to NetGalley and Joy Revolution for an ARC of this book!
