Obsessed!!
This book was everything! Jack and Teo were perfection.
This book had me completely hooked from the start. They literally said nothing but the chemistry was palpable.
This book had me on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen next. I was literally swooning, like how do you not fall in love with Jack? This man remembered every single word that came out of Teos mouth. The way that they just enjoyed hanging out and talking was so freaking adorable.
It was frustrating that Teo could still think he could have feelings for Chris, when Jack was perfect. Yet I completely understand, for years he idolized Chris. He allowed him to string him along with promises. To realize you wasted years of your life waiting for someone that doesn’t exists was devastating.
Chris made my blood boil, I hated him so much. He was absolute trash. My heart literally broke when he lied to Jack, I wanted to destroy him. I truly think he got off easy, I wish I could’ve seen him suffer a bit more. You manipulated your best friend for years, like at least let me see you grovel. I at least wanted to see his reaction when Teo told him to fuck off. I guess that’s just the pettiness in me, but I had not hated a character as much in a very long time.
Overall, loved it. Like seriously loved it, from beginning to end.
Recommend it 100%, the audiobook was also 5⭐️

I loved the characters. The setting could have been anywhere and I likely would not have noticed because I was so obsessed with the characters. The relationship with one another, with friends and family it was fantastic. Oh except Chris. He was only good to hate.

This is the 2nd time I read this book. And this time, I listening to the Audiobook. And I still love this story.
The only thing that annoyed me, is their cluelessness about their love for one another, and their desire to be together. I really hate this trope, especially when it’s used over and over throughout the book. I think it’s something you use sparingly, and not as the main obstacle.
Jack is incredibly caring and loving. Oh my god I want to be with someone like Jack. And Teo was so sweet. They really do fit so well together. This is a really fun book. And I’m so happy I read it again.

This was very fun, cute, romantic and sweet! I enjoyed it so much!
Jack and Teo had such amazing chemistry together. Their conversations were light but also serious: they could truly talk with each other, and they needed nothing besides one another’s company to have fun. They teased, flirted and bantered, but they were also super soft and sweet to each other. They were a great match and I really liked all of their interactions. I could 100% see the love and affection between them, and I loved how much they both adored each other.
However, there are obviously a bunch of insecurities and uncertainties in the relationship due to the whole Chris drama and also because of Jack’s restrictions to date due to him being a pilot.
I liked this, since it kept me on my toes the whole time to find out how and when they would finally be together FOR REAL. I was definitely swooning because of all the longing and pining these 'issues' created between them!
Nonetheless, sometimes I did get a little frustrated and just wanted them both to realise what was right in front of them. The roadblocks in their relationship just kept popping up, and they never really caught a break. It should have been such an obvious choice to just get together, since they both wanted to, but it took them a long time. And honestly, the way they acted with each other was practically like they were already dating anyway, they just needed to make it official!

“Love you,” he murmured in his sleep.
The words lit up everything inside of me even though I knew they weren’t intentional. What if there came a day when he truly did love me?
My heart skittered around in my chest like a mouse in a maze who was desperate to know the quickest way to the cheese.
I would be the luckiest motherfucker alive.
Also, I absolutely wanted to strangle Chris during this whole book. I literally hate him so much, and I wish him nothing but bad karma for the rest of his life.
It’s honestly why I was so confused why Teo was so hung up on him: the guy had no redeeming qualities, so why was Teo desperate to have a future with him? Especially since he had Jack right there, showing him what a loving and caring boyfriend should look like. How can people be so blind?
“The biggest clue he’s batshit crazy over you? He cried when he thought he’d lost you.”
All in all, I really liked this book: it was super engaging and entertaining! I truly liked both of the main characters and their dynamic was easy, sweet and honest.
